On-Loan Fulham Ace Mitrovic Takes Swipe at Rafa Benitez Over Newcastle Tactical Approach

Aleksandar Mitrovic appears to have burnt his Newcastle United bridges after he admitted that he is 'enjoying' his football more while on loan at Fulham.

The Magpies loanee has bagged three goals in as many matches for the Championship promotion hopefuls, after he fell out of favour at St. James' Park under Newcastle manager Rafa Benitez.

Speaking in quotes published by the Northern Echo, Mitrovic explained how Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic had got his side playing better football than that on show in the north east, as he threw shade at Benitez for the tactics he employs.
