Jaissle 'aware' of Newcastle needs after Everton friendly loss

Newcastle United's head coach Matthias Jaissle was aware of the team's needs following a 3-1 pre-season friendly loss to Everton at Murrayfield. Jaissle emphasized the importance of addressing these needs internally and maintaining consistency in his approach. The young Newcastle side, featuring several players aged 25 and under, struggled to capitalize on their promising start and looked vulnerable at the back during the match.

Everton's key goals came from Thomas Denton, an opportunistic finish by Harrison Armstrong, and a penalty converted by Iliman Ndiaye. Substitute Harvey Barnes pulled one back for Newcastle in the 73rd minute. Jaissle acknowledged the need for reinforcements, particularly in the right-back and central midfield positions, and expressed confidence in the team's ability to progress despite the setbacks.
