Thought that was a very, very encouraging start. Only Newcastle won there last season: we dominated, and showed how quickly we've adapted.

Udogie, VDV, Bissouma, Emerson, Maddison and Sarr are all mint.

New manager, new players, new style of play and a tough away game.

Loads of positives for a first game. I'm very excited moving forward.

Quite enjoyed that. Not overly impressed with Sonny and Richy but if everyone can chip in goals from everywhere we may surprise people. Entertaining stuff, I haven't seen us play like this in years

Some good things to build on but that front 3 worries me.

Vicario also has a bit of Gomes about him.

I thought that was fantastic.

A tough as hell away fixture to start. Losing Romero. Some iffy as fuck refereeing/VARing.

Udogi, Van de Ven and Maddison look like unbelievable signings.

Bissouma was the player we hoped he'd be when he joined.

So, so many positives.

Happy with that. Especially the defence. I thought the worst when Romero went off but fair play to Sanchez and vdv.

No real issues for me. Not judging anything for a few games, yet.

individually, VDV looked good, Biss excellent.

Nice to see some attacking impetus. We played some nice stuff at points.

Shout out to Sanchez as well. He was also good.

Decent performance. New boys looked good overall, lots of positives. But pretty obvious that our front 3 doesn't have enough going forward to make a real impact this season

Second half was a good performance. A few things I thought were poor tactically but overall it was encouraging.

I'm happy with that. If that is how games will pan out I'm all in. But my point made at half time is valid. We need better wingers

Shame solomon and Lo Celso didn't get a chance. Solomon for Kulu might have given us some more urgency.

I wanted to see signs of what we are going to do and with 4 debutants we’ve done that.

Decent performance with loads of room for improvement which is great.

Solid point, and an entertaining game to watch.

Nice to see us play on the front foot with the ball for the first time in about 4 years!

Bissouma, Madison and Udogie real positives, also thought Sanchez was solid when he came on.

I don't think either Skipp or Sarr are an ideal understudy for Bentancur.
