Michael Chopra hits out at Newcastle’s playing style

Newcastle crashed to 5-0 defeat against Leicester City at the weekend and former player Michael Chopra has hit out at manager Steve Bruce.

Bruce took charge of Newcastle United this summer after Rafa Benitez’s contract expired.

The experienced manager promised to play attacking football with his new side but he is yet to deliver on that promise.

Chopra took to Twitter to share his concerns regarding Bruce’s playing style.

He tweeted: “Starting to think, after watching that performance are the players really playing for Steve Bruce? what happened to the attacking football he wanted to play when he was appointed manager of my boyhood club #embarrassing #nufc.
