Has another nice campaign as backup Murphy scored four goals, made two assists, had 29 shots, created 19 chances and sent in 53 crosses over 36 appearances (14 starts) this season.

Impact Murphy put up another campaign as a net-positive, performing very well when given the chance to play and even having a couple of stretches as part of the starting XI. One of EPL's most reliable backup attackers, Murphy is capable of filling in at either wing and, regardless of the reinforcements that will come during the summer, he should still find some regular playing time, especially with Newcastle now having a much busier schedule as they prepare for their Champions League return after two decades.

On bench Monday Murphy (groin) will be available as a substitute versus Leicester City on Monday.

Impact Murphy had started eight of his prior 10 contests before sustaining his groin injury but finds himself watching from the bench for Monday's kickoff. Still, barring any setbacks, Murphy could be in line to reclaim a place in the starting XI for the season final versus Chelsea on May 28.

Unlikely to face Leicester Murphy (groin) hasn't trained and is considered a doubt for Monday's match against Leicester City, according to manager Eddie Howe.

Impact Murphy still has a chance to feature, as Howe's quotes came after Thursday's match and there's still a few days between then and Monday. Given the injury to Joe Willock, someone else will have to come into the midfield and Murphy could be an option if he can improve in the days leading up to Monday's match.

Left out against Brighton Murphy (groin) will not be in the starting XI versus Brighton on Thursday.

Impact Murphy had started nine of the last 10 contests for the club before being an unused substitute against Leeds on Saturday. Now, the forward finds himself dropped from the squad entirely due to his groin problem. Miguel Almiron figures to continue deputizing in Murphy's stead.

Doubt to face Brighton Murphy (groin) is considered a doubt for Thursday's match against Brighton, according to manager Eddie Howe.

Impact Murphy's groin continues to bother him and this update doesn't put him on the right side of the injury after sitting on the bench in Saturday's draw against Leeds. It's unlikely he'll start Thursday or even be available, which likely means another start for Miguel Almiron, who is looking to return to his form found earlier in the season.

Left on bench with groin issue Murphy was dealing with groin soreness during Saturday's draw with Leeds United, according to Newcastle manager Eddie Howe. He was an unused substitute in the match.

Impact Murphy had started nine of Newcastle's last 10 Premier League games prior to this weekend on the right wing while Miguel Almiron was out with a thigh injury, but Murphy was the one to sit against Leeds on Saturday with an injury of his own. His status will be one to monitor heading into the midweek clash with Brighton, though even if fit he might still return to a substitute role with Almiron back in the XI.

Nets another goal Murphy scored one goal to go with two shots (one on target), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Thursday's 4-1 win against Everton.

Impact Murphy scored his third goal in two matches to put him at four for the season. He only had one league goal in his previous 30 games. With Miguel Almiron back, the forward will return to the bench, making just 12 starts in 32 appearances this campaign.

Scores quick brace versus Spurs Murphy scored two goals to go with three shots (two on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 6-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur.

Impact Murphy scored two quick goals Sunday, as he found the net twice before 10 minutes were played. He had just one goal coming into Sunday's match, so the brace came as a massive surprise. He took three shots (two on target), created one chance, whipped in three crosses (one accurate) and took one corner in his 66 minutes of action.

Records assist in win Murphy assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 5-1 victory over West Ham United.

Impact Murphy recorded his second assist of the season Wednesday, as his pass found Callum Wilson in the box just after halftime to give his side the 3-1 lead. It was the only chance he created in the match, but he added two shots (one on target), two crosses (one accurate), one tackle (won) and one interception in his 64 minutes of action.

Yet to score in new year Murphy had one shot (zero on target), two crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 2-0 victory against Manchester United.

Impact Murphy is the starting right winger while Miguel Almiron (thigh) is out on injury. In three starts, he has yet to score on five shots (one no target). He will likely return back to the bench once Almiron is back.

Creates five chances in win Murphy took two shots and created five chances in Friday's 2-1 victory against Nottingham Forest.

Impact Murphy has started just seven games this season, but two of them have come this week as he's had to take over from the injured Miguel Almiron (undisclosed) on the right wing. Murphy's tallied four shots (one on target) and five chances created across those two starts.

MARCH 18, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Provides assist versus Southampton Murphy made an assist and sent in two crosses (one accurate) during Sunday's 4-1 win over Southampton.

Impact Murphy was back in the starting XI after coming off the bench on the previous two contests and made most of the opportunity, assisting Chris Wood for his side's second goal in the 58th minute. The winger couldn't do much more than that from a fantasy perspective and ended up being subbed off after a little more than an hour of playing time. Murphy could very well receive another start for Saturday's clash against Chelsea but he'll probably head to the bench once Allan Saint-Maximin is fully fit.

Scores first goal of season Murphy scored one goal to go with two shots (two on target), four crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 5-1 win versus Brentford.

Impact Murphy was in the starting XI for just the second time in nine matches thus far this season, and he certainly maximized his 66 minutes on the pitch. He evaded his marker and beat the keeper in the 28th minute to give his side a crucial 2-0 advantage - one they ultimately would not relinquish. Callum Wilson was credited with the assist on the tally. Joelinton relieved Murphy in the 67th.
