But yeah, I think if he gets a nice touch there, he scores.

We might be sitting here talking about a totally different game.

Yeah, I think the opening few games of the season, you need to start off the season well because you don't want to be chasing.

You talk about the guys at the top who are looking to win the league like Tottenham.

You lose a couple of games, you're always chasing.

It's the same down the bottom.

Not that I think with that performance, I think Newcastle will be safe this season.

But yeah, you want to start off on the front foot.

So Saturday's game against Cardiff is going to be...

is going to be a real test for us.

Obviously, new boys come up, their first home game, I'm guessing.

So, such a tight fixture.

But we'll be looking, I guess, to go down on the confidence off the back of this result.

Yeah, I mean, like the lad said, he looked tired in that second half, and, you know, who can blame him?

Erm...

I thought he did all the things that he had to do well.

I don't think he's, like you said, coming in having a week's training and you're never going to be at your very best.

But he definitely looked tired in that second half.

And they're going to have to watch him because he's played a lot of games over the last couple of months.

And he's their main man.
