VIDEO LINK - Newcastle 4-3 Man City - 2004
SEPTEMBER
Lineup - Dubravka, Aarons (Tavernier), Mumin, Diallo, Lewis, M.Longstaff (Cook), Ceballos, Saint-Maximin, Almiron (Almada), Lainez, Wilson*
A decent point but yet again I am left wishing that we could do better defensively! Lewis Cook came off the bench to make his debut here.

UEFA Europa League Group H
Lineup - Dubravka, Tavernier, Lascelles, Gila*, Mitchell, Blanco, S.Longstaff, Fraser, Almada, Serrano (Anderson), Badji (Armstrong)
We return to European football and I marked the occasion by playing my backups and handing out 4 debuts. Gila shone the brightest with 2 goals on his debut while Blanco also grabbed a debut goal. Very pleasing.

Wolves deserved their point here for sure but I am ****** off that we couldnt get the clean sheet as we conceded the equaliser late on.

Carabao Cup 3rd Round
Lineup - Dubravka, Aarons, Mumin, Diallo, Lewis, Cook, Ceballos*, Saint-Maximin, Almada, Lainez (Armstrong), Badji
I am delighted with our performance, result and most of all the clean sheet! We were gifted two own goals and Dani Ceballos scored twice before ASM added the 5th and Badji had a goal disallowed as we thrash Burnley in their own patch.

This was a very tight affair which was settled by Ryan Fraser being our supersub! Our first clean sheet in the league this season too!

A horrible match. Neither side deserved to win in truth but they got the goal when Diallo gifted them possession to give them the lead. We never really looked like equalising until right at the end when Badji struck the post. Awful.

SUMMARY
This month was a mixed bag. In the league got a creditable draw against Man City but disappointingly drew away to Wolves before narrowly defeating West Ham but I am quite happy with our start to the campaign as we are still unbeaten after 7 games. We thrashed Burnley in the Carabao Cup and in the Europa League we easily beat CSKA Sofia before losing out to Roma away in a forgettable match.
I am still waiting for things to properly click which is understandable given the amount of players that I brought in and there are encouraging signs but we still need to get better!
