Overview
- Newcastle won 2-0 at Tottenham on Saturday after second-half goals from Anthony Elanga and Yoane Wissa and kept a clean sheet to secure all three points.
- Manager Matthias Jaissle said the club's 'DNA' suits his style and praised the team's commitment, adding that he can already see defensive stability taking shape.
- The win leaves Newcastle unbeaten under Jaissle with four points from their opening two league games following a 2-2 draw with Liverpool.
- The squad has been overhauled this summer with several senior exits and numerous young signings such as Nico Gonzalez, Amar Dedic and Lukas Hornicek, and the club has indicated more arrivals are possible before the window closes.
- The immediate result eases short-term pressure but raises a clear need to integrate new players quickly and to add experienced leaders if Newcastle are to sustain the early momentum.
