Hometown hero Burn has become a fans’ favourite at St James’ Park.
But even the most ardent Toon fan would struggle to praise Burn’s shot that has gone viral on social media.
Recording a figure appearing to be Burn, a social media user wrote: “Not a good start for Dan Burn lol.”
The clip subsequently showed the popular defender shanking his shot horribly.
One fan commented: “Love the with he held his position trying to style it out.”
While a second joked: “Held the pose well. Committed to it. Nice.”
A third wrote: “He could head it further.”
And another added: “Probably needs to sticking to headers at Wembley….”
