Joe Willock was the hero again for Newcastle United in a slim victory over Sheffield United.

The Arsenal loanee scored the game's only goal on the stroke of half-time, which made him the youngest-ever player to net in six straight Premier League games.

With 10,000 fans in the Gallowgate, 21-year-old Willock headed Jacob Murphy's cross past Aaron Ramsdale.

In bad news for Toon fans, Willock and Allan Saint-Maximin both limped off with injuries.

Speaking after the game, Willock admitted he would be opening to staying at Newcastle beyond this season.

On his future, Willock told BBC Sport: "I'm not sure. I need to have a conversation and see what the best move for me is. I have made friends for life and made a really big connection with the fans.

"It is one of my options and I am going to consider it."
