Newcastle United fans have taken to social media to criticise summer signing Joselu after yet another poor performance in front of goal.
The Spaniard failed to find the net in the Magpies narrow 1-0 defeat to Brighton at the weekend, however could have done so on multiple occasions, only to fluff his lines.
The former Stoke City man – who joined Rafael Benitez’s side last month for around £5 million – missed a golden opportunity at 0-0 to give the visitors the lead but saw his side go a inch wide of the post.
Last week, despite Newcastle coming out as 2-1 victors over Stoke thanks to a late Jamaal Lascelles goal, Joselu also missed a hat-trick of chances against his former club leading to some heavy criticism from the Newcastle fans.
Joselu scored only 4 times in his time with the Potters, however it was hoped the ex Real Madrid youngster would be able to re-discover his shooting boots on Tyneside – a wish that has thus far gone unfulfilled.
Fans aren’t happy at their £5 million man and have taken to Twitter to say so …

To sum #NUFC up – Hayden isn’t Prem standard, Perez is too lightweight and Joselu cannot hit a barn door. Shelvey should have started.

How long is Rafa going to stick with Joselu? Missing too many chances? Surely got to start Gayle or Mitro now that his ban is finished #NUFC

Seriously- we could have spent that £12m and the £5m from Joselu and bought someone who actually knows how to belt the ball in the net!!
