It is three weeks until Newcastle United kick off their Premier League campaign against Liverpool.
Until now, it has been another difficult campaign for the Magpies, with high-profile sales like Anthony Gordon and Sandro Tonali. Bruno Guimaraes is also on the brink of a big-money move to Arsenal.
Eddie Howe has walked - and supporters are now preparing for a new dawn at St James’ Park. Matthias Jaissle has arrived as his replacement to kick-start a new era on Tyneside.
As for incomings, Newcastle have taken a youthful approach, with four first-team additions aged 20 or under. Czech international Lukas Hornicek also signed last week after completing a £25.6million move from Sporting Braga.
Many fans are fearful of what the upcoming campaign could bring. But with just under a month left until the top-flight opener, the Magpies have time on their side to give Jaissle the tools needed for a successful season.
For now, it is hard to predict what lies in store for Newcastle. On a positive note, AI tool Grok has backed United to achieve a relatively successful campaign - check out the results below.
