Why did Newcastle United loan out Adam Armstrong again?

The Barnsley loanee has started in the same vein he played out a temporary stint at Coventry City last season, audaciously turning Alex Baptiste inside out before grabbing the 79th-minute winner at Preston North End on Saturday.

"I'm here until January and I'll give my everything to Barnsley during that period and hopefully I can score a few goals and keep them near the top of the table," he said after securing his loan to Oakwell.

The 19-year-old has certainly hit the ground running, and his goal helped lift The Tykes into second in the Championship.
