Newcastle United’s Premier League campaign began with frustration at Villa Park as the Magpies were held to a 0–0 draw against ten men, with the absence of a striker glaringly obvious.

But while it was a slow start on the pitch, the transfer window is finally kicking into gear.

In this episode of Talk of the Toon, we cover:

• Elanga’s debut in black & white
• Isak still refusing to play amid Liverpool speculation
• Malick Thiaw’s signing confirmed - what he brings to the defence
• Jacob Ramsey deal agreed
• Wissa still a priority for NUFC’s attack
• A huge clash with Liverpool at St James’ Park on the horizon

From striker standoffs to long-awaited arrivals, we break down where NUFC stand after the opening week - and what could happen next.
