Assists in defeat
Barnes assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 7-2 defeat versus Barcelona.
Analysis: Barnes linked up sharply with Lewis Hall in the buildup to Anthony Elanga's opener and helped Newcastle consistently target Barcelona's left flank with intent early on. He stayed heavily involved in a dangerous front line before the momentum flipped late in the first half, capping his impact with an assist on Elanga's second goal in the 28th minute. Newcastle lost their footing after the break as Barcelona took control, limiting his influence as an outlet, but Barnes still looks in strong form with two goals and one assist over his last four appearances across all competitions and should continue to lock down the starting role on the left wing for the Magpies.
Scores goal in draw
Barnes scored one goal to go with four shots (two on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Tuesday's 1-1 draw versus Barcelona.
Analysis: Barnes fired Newcastle in front in the 86th minute, arriving at the back post to hammer home Jacob Murphy's cross and send St James' Park into a frenzy. He had already been one of Newcastle's most dangerous attacking outlets, constantly stretching the defense with his pace and direct running while finishing the night with four shots (two on target) and two crosses. The strike looked like it would seal the tie before Barcelona's stoppage-time penalty flipped the entire script, and Barnes now sits on 11 goals and three assists in 39 appearances across all competitions this season for the Magpies.
Assists with season high in tackles
Barnes assisted once to go with six shots (three on goal) and three chances created in Wednesday's 6-1 victory versus Qarabag.
Analysis: Barnes ended his six game goal contribution drought with an assist, his third of the season and first since early November. The winger was involved throughout on the left, recording a season high six shots while also creating two chances. He also set a new season high defensively with four tackles in a dominant performance against Qarabag.
Five shots without one on target
Barnes registered five shots (zero on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 2-0 loss to Aston Villa.
Analysis: Barnes attempted five shots but was unable to put any on target. Five shots is the most attempts he has had in a game this season. This is one of only three games this season where he has attempted more than one shot and not put one on target.
Ices match with goal
Barnes scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 3-0 win over PSV Eindhoven.
Analysis: Barnes drove directly at the PSV Eindhoven backline Wednesday for a second-half goal that put the match beyond reach in Newcastle's 3-0 home triumph. Across his last five appearances (four starts) in all competitions, the attacker has scored five goals from 12 shots (eight on goal). Look for Barnes to be rotated in the near future after playing three 90-minute shifts and one 120-minute shift across his last four starting appearances.
Five crosses in 0-0 draw
Barnes registered one shot (zero on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Wolverhampton.
Analysis: Barnes attempted five crosses as Newcastle drew 0-0 with Wolves. He has started each of the last three games in all competitions and attempted a total of 21 crosses in this time. In this game, he was successful with one cross, making it four completed out of 21. He also attempted one shot but was unable to put it on target. He has scored five goals in the Premier League this season.
Buries two in win
Barnes scored two goals to go with four shots (three on goal), eight crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 4-3 win versus Leeds United.
Analysis: Barnes registered his second two-goal game of the campaign, and his third when including UCL play this season. He tied his season highs with four shots and three on target in the match. He also set a season high with his eight crosses and registered a tackle won for the first time in four outings.
Scores early opener
Barnes scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Tuesday's 2-1 defeat to Marseille.
Analysis: Barnes gave Newcastle the lead inside six minutes, lashing a left-foot shot past Geronimo Rulli from close range after Sandro Tonali broke the lines and crossed from the right flank of the box. It was his fourth goal in five games in the Champions League this season. Early in the second half, he thought he had restored the lead, only for a tidy finish to be ruled out for offside. Barnes is in a brilliant form as he contributed four goals and one assist in his last four appearances across all competitions for the Magpies.
Brace leads to win
Barnes scored two goals to go with four shots (three on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Manchester City.
Analysis: Barnes would bag both goals for Newcastle and earn them the win Saturday, finding the back of the net in the 63rd and 70th minutes. However, he could've nearly made it a hat-trick, missing an early sitter that would have gone in on most days. The winger now has three goals this season in 12 appearances (five starts), all of which have come in the past three games since working into a starting role.
Another goal contribution
Barnes scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-1 defeat to Brentford.
Analysis: Barnes recorded a goal contribution for a second straight game. This also marked his third straight outing with a shot, but he landed one on target for the first time in four outings. Additionally, this was the fourth time in five games that he accounted for a chances created.
Logs assist in UCL win
Barnes delivered an assist, had one off-target shot and sent in two crosses (one accurate) during Wednesday's 2-0 Champions League win over Athletic Bilbao.
Analysis: Barnes had a rare start here, his first in all competitions since September, and had a very quiet first half. However, in the 49th minute the winger had a huge contribution, assisting Joelinton for the goal that doubled his side's lead. That's now three goals and an assist over four European appearances for Barnes, who's still to open his account in domestic competition.
Nets brace
Barnes scored two goals to go with two shots (two on goal), one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 3-0 victory over Benfica.
Analysis: Barnes scored a pair of goals during Tuesday's one-sided win over Benfica. The winger was excellent throughout the match and was a big threat down the wing. Barnes has been in and out of the starting XI, but when he does play he's a major goal threat with significant upside.
Logs in goal off bench
Barnes scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Wednesday's 4-0 victory versus Union SG.
Analysis: Barnes started the game as a sub Wednesday, managing to record a goal in just 17 minutes of play. He had started against Barcelona during GW1, collecting three shots on target in the two appearances as he makes his first appearance in the tournament since 2023/24.
