Bruno Guimaraes' exciting vow to Newcastle fans after yesterday's 5-0 battering at Man City

Following a disappointing display at the Etihad, fan-favourite Bruno Guimaraes has apologised for the performance on Twitter and promised that "we'll evolve as a team" next season.

The Brazilian was one of our better performers on the day, but ultimately, as a team, it was an poor display which highlighted the gap in quality between us and the elite - in case we didn't already know.

However, the one positive we can take, as pointed out by the 24-year-old midfielder, is the constant and unfaltering support from Newcastle fans. Even after the hosts scored their third, all that could be heard was the familiar chant of 'E-I-E-I-E-I-O' belted out by the away end.

Bruno said the "unbelievable" Toon Army deserved more than to witness a 5-0 hammering, vowing that this team will evolve ahead of the new season.

With safety all but guaranteed coming into the game, many fans have already turned their attention to the summer and what will be a very interesting and important season as we plan our 'evolution'.
