FREE TO WATCH: Highlights from the Premier League match between Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United
Tottenham have lost their first two Premier League matches and failed to score in both as rejuvenated duo Anthony Elanga and Yoane Wissa struck to earn Newcastle a 2-0 victory.
Spurs' big-spending summer, in which they have splashed £320m on eight new players, is yet to have an impact on Roberto De Zerbi's side, who were booed off a week on from being thrashed 3-0 at Brentford and lacked a cutting edge in their first home league game despite handing a debut to forward Omar Marmoush.
De Zerbi's other key signing, £75m winger Savio, has already been dealt an injury blow, missing out with "muscle fatigue", while midfielder Sandro Tonali, who left Newcastle in a £100m move, was mocked by his former supporters as they collected their first win.

Tottenham were the better side in the first half, with Newcastle goalkeeper Lucas Hornicek making saves from Mathys Tel and Jan Paul van Hecke, but Elanga, who struggled last season but shone last weekend with a goal against Liverpool, swivelled in the area and sent a shot off the post midway through the second half to put Newcastle ahead.
De Zerbi reacted with three substitutes, yet Spurs never looked likely to find an equaliser, and Wissa, another who disappointed under previous boss Eddie Howe, compounded their misery. Newcastle sub Nick Woltemade headed a corner into the six-yard box and Wissa, with his back to goal, hooked the ball over his head into the net.
Redknapp: Spurs lacked leaders - they must do better
Jamie Redknapp on Saturday Night Football:
"There's a lot of new players at Spurs and it's going to take time. The manager has got a jigsaw puzzle and he's got to figure out how to fit the players in, what system to use, who the best three players are in midfield.
"There are going to be teething problems.
"I also look at the senior players and players like Van de Ven didn't do enough to lead today and certainly with the goals.
"Players who have been there for a long time can do better."
