Newcastle United sold at least one membership and shirt after Monday?s spirited performance against Liverpool.
Toni Kroos was left blown away by Newcastle United?s spirited performance against Liverpool - and even bought a membership at the club.

Speaking on his podcast, the Real Madrid legend also ordered a Dan Burn shirt due to his never-say-die display in defence. The Magpies were left reeling on Monday after coming from two goals down against Liverpool - with 10 men - only to lose in the 100th minute.

Eddie Howe?s men were without Alexander Isak and lost Anthony Gordon, Joelinton and Sandro Tonali during the game. But the manner of their performance versus the Premier League champions earned Newcastle a standing ovation at full-time.

Toni Kroos stunned by Newcastle United
United earned a new fan in Real Madrid and Germany legend Kroos. He told the podcast: ?Newcastle vs Liverpool, just to say that again briefly for the few people here who haven't seen it, we're talking about that right now. I'm going to sign up as a Newcastle member today. (It was not) just the atmosphere, but also the team.


?You can do that in Germany (become a member) too, right? Is it different there? I don't know how it is, but if it's possible, please do it. They completely captivated me. I read a quote from Jamie Carragher, and I often disagree, but I have to say, he said that it was one of the worst performances in history from a winning team, and one of the best performances in history from a losing team. I agree with that.

?They're playing really well and, out of nowhere, as often happens against such favourites, they go 0-1 down. Boom. They get a red card. You come out (in the second half), 15 seconds down (it goes) 0-2. You're playing against the champions, the best team in England, trailing 0-2 and one man down. And what happened in the 45th, no, 55th minutes, was insane.

?I've rarely seen a team stay so active with 10 men, even at the risk of conceding six, seven, or eight at the end when you're somehow open. And then in the second half, not sitting back and saying, ?Please not the third, please not the fourth? and somehow making it 2-2.

?You think you've seen everything in football. But it's really incredibly rare that you, an underdog team against the favourites, play like that.?

Toni Kroos on membership and Dan Burn shirt
When his producer pulled up a Newcastle membership online for ?47, the former midfielder obliged. Kroos also told him to order a Burn shirt, referencing his recent England call-up by Thomas Tuchel.

?Yes, I'll do it (order a Newcastle membership). Fine, I'd do it. Do I have to show up next week? I will order the jersey of, who's the big one at the back? The one at the front for everyone. Dan Burn. He's 33, I think and, if I'm not mistaken, an England international. I think Tuchel made him an international. Could you please order his shirt and post it next week?

?I was 1000 per cent taken aback by what they did yesterday. I know Newcastle obviously has a lot of tradition, but that they're also a club that's somehow in Saudi Arabian hands. I don't care about any of that. Yesterday was purely about the mentality. I have to say, sad is a big word, but I was disappointed for Newcastle that the goal (from Liverpool) was scored in the end.?

Always good to see "names" taking notice of us.

Conspiracy theory hat on - anything in him being so "all over us" and now we've bought 2 German internationals.

Some role within the club maybe?

No matter what kind of narrative the press tries to push, we do our talking on the pitch. This is why we love Eddie Howe and Bruno and Burn and everyone else who puts in 100% for the club. Leaving it all out on the pitch and going for it for 90 minutes despite being a man down is the envy of every fan and wins over neutrals.
