Eddie Howe hailed Alexander Isak’s quality after seeing the Sweden international fire Newcastle into the Premier League’s top four.

Isak became the first Magpies player to score in eight successive Premier League games as he took his tally for the season to 17 – 16 of them in his last 16 games – with a double in Wednesday night’s 3-0 win over Wolves.
