Former Newcastle midfielder Jermaine Jenas says he believes Jurgen Klopp was braced for a tough match but the Magpies 'just didn't turn up' for yesterday's 1-0 defeat.
Newcastle United lost 1-0 to Liverpool at St James' Park yesterday, the goal coming from Naby Keita. If it had not been for some excellent goalkeeping by Martin Dubravka the scoreline could have been worse.
It was up front though that the difference was most evident, with Liverpool's forwards creating chance after chance, while Newcastle failed to penetrate. Striker Chris Wood had been dropped to the bench, but even when he was brought on the team could not make the ball stick when it went forward.
