Eddie Howe's last press conference centred around one of the big talking points of Newcastle United's last match day.
Of course, one of them had been the disallowed VAR goal - which saw Joe Willock penalised for a foul - that cost Howe's team victory at St James' Park. But the other big topic was Aleksander Isak's one-on-one which saw him denied by Crystal Palace goalie Vicente Guaita after opting to go for the little dink rather than rounding the former Valencia man.
In a season in which Newcastle are third in the table for putting crosses into the box - with 123 so far - the amount of missed chances stacking up is not through the want of trying or down to a lack of effort. Howe is simply waiting for the chemistry to start bubbling away with his revamped team.
