Bruno Guimaraes lashed out at a Newcastle United fan account following the Magpies\u2019 1-0 defeat against Manchester City on Saturday (August 19).<\/p>\n
Eddie Howe\u2019s side were unable to follow up their 5-1 opening day hammering of Aston Villa after they were defeated at the Etihad in the Toon\u2019s second game of the campaign.<\/p>\n
And while the majority of Newcastle fans reframed from criticising Guimaraes and Eddie Howe\u2019s team for the defeat just a week after the 5-1 victory, Magpies\u2019 fan account @nufc360 riled the Geordie fanbase and even the Brazilian himself.<\/p>\n
The account, which has 140,000 followers, posted a picture of Guimaraes alongside team-mates Joelinton, Dan Burn and Miguel Almiron, and asked: \u201cIs it too early in the season to start focusing blame onto individual players? Was there an overreaction to the loss to Man City?\u201d<\/p>\n

Guimaraes spotted the tweet and furiously hit back, captioning the post with a sick emoji before tweeting: \u201cIs this serious?<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are in Champions League football we lost against maybe one of the best teams in the world and we have a big win and lost one game!<\/p>\n
\u201cSupport in the best moment is easy! Short stupid memories you all have look what we have done for the team this 1 year and half.\u201d<\/p>\n
Newcastle fans \u2013 how do you think Bruno Guimaraes played in the defeat against Man City? Let us know in the comments section.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Guimaraes received a plethora of support from Newcastle fans who didn\u2019t want to associate their views with that of the fan account and to support the midfielder \u2013 who famously wears his heart on his sleeve.<\/p>\n
Amid the backlash, the @nufc360 account backtracked on their previous tweet by deleting it and apologised to Guimaraes for the post – while the Brazilian also deleted his reply to the page.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
They wrote: \u201cWe are with you @brunoog97, this post was a way to try and focus on the craziness of those trying to find players to blame after two games. I\u2019m sorry if this was not expressed on that manner. NUFC360 is behind all of our players.\u201d<\/p>\n
After the loss away at the home of the league champions, Guimaraes tweeted: \u201cA tough match against one of the best teams in the world today, we know we can do much better and we will work to meet the expectations this season.\u201d<\/p>\n
