Jose Mourinho hails the ‘outstanding’ performance of Anthony Gordon and Newcastle’s attacking players after their dominant victory over his Benfica team at St. James’ Park in the Champions League.

In terms of the balance of the squad, We really miss Manú. There are no two coaches the same. There won’t be any criticism for any coach that Benfica had. 9:55 ,Trubin looked like he was the best o
