We've been beaten in all three but that's probably a harsh reflection. Newcastle boss Eddie Howe: 'Our overall performance in all three games has been very good, high-level games, we've gone toe-to-toe in all those games.

Moments later Ruben Dias and Ederson had to block from another new arrival, Alexander Isak. Newcastle made a steady start to the second half, though, and a triple change from Howe on 62 minutes almost had an instant impact, with sub Joe Willock whizzing the ball through the six-yard box and Joelinton just unable to connect. In between, there was wave after wave of City attack, with Jamaal Lascelles - thrown in for his first Premier League start since August - blocking from Erling Haaland and Botman denying Foden another before Haaland headed woefully wide when he looked primed to score.

Newcastle made three changes from their Carabao Cup final defeat to Man Utd, with Jamaal Lascelles making his first Premier League start since August in place of Fabian Schar. Stefan Ortega, Rico Lewis, Kalvin Phillips, Bernardo Silva, Julian Alvarez and Riyad Mahrez dropped to the bench. Man City made six changes from the FA Cup win over Bristol City, with Ederson, Kyle Walker, Rodri, Ilkay Gundogan, Jack Grealish and Erling Haaland all back.
