Ray Parlour Praises Newcastle Midfielder Following Performance at Burnley

Arsenal legend Ray Parlour has been full of praise for Newcastle midfielder Ki Sung-yeung, following his splendid performance against Burnley on Monday night.

Newcastle secured a 2-1 win at Turf Moor, as they won their third successive Premier League game. Ki played a pivotal role in the Magpies’ win, and received grand praise from Parlour.

Speaking on talkSPORT after Newcastle’s victory, Parlour said: “You’ve got no Shelvey playing either but I thought the midfield were very good, I really like Ki. He’s a real quality player on the ball, he’s never flustered.”

Ki joined Newcastle from Swansea City this summer, following the Swans’ relegation from the Premier League.
