NEWCASTLE will be hoping to get new signing Nick Woltemade up to speed as soon as possible as they played out another goalless draw.
The Magpies looked lacklustre at best in front of goal without Alexander Isak as they drew 0-0 with newly promoted side Leeds.
Woltemade is going to be the man tasked with finding the back of the net if Isak is to be sold to Liverpool before Monday’s transfer deadline.
And the 23-year-old was sat in the stands at Elland Road watching his new teammates fail to trouble Leeds stopper Lucas Perri.
The German probably thinks he has a huge job on his hands, but if his £69m transfer fee is anything to go by then he must be the right man for the job.
For Leeds, a draw against a Champions League club can be considered a positive.
But another frustrating cameo from new signing Dominic Calvert-Lewin will leave them frustrated.
While fellow relegation favourites Sunderland earning three points against Brentford means they will already be beginning to be concerned about the teams around them pulling away, despite it being so early in the campaign.
