Newcastle were left frustrated by another disappointing performance at the weekend as they lost 5-0 to Leicester.
Jamie Vardy scored twice, with an own goal from Paul Dummett and strikes from Ricardo Pereira and Wilfred Ndidi sealing the points for the home side.
One slight positive for Newcastle was the return of DeAndre Yedlin, who came off the bench for his first appearance of the season.

READ NEWCASTLE VERDICT
Should Yedlin start against Manchester United next weekend?
Yes. Emil Krafth turned in yet another disappointing performance at right-back and Javier Manquillo failed to impress in his start the week before. Now is the time for Yedlin to come in and make a claim for his place in the team.
The USA international was given a few minutes at the end of the game, one the wing, and should be getting close to match fitness – so starting against United does not seem implausible.
