Joelinton believes success at Newcastle United will take time but is aware of the pressure that playing for the club brings. The expectation levels at the Magpies has risen dramatically in the last 12 months following the takeover and significant investment in a number of top players.
After such a positive second half of last season – which took Newcastle from 19th on New Year's Day to an 11th-place finish – Eddie Howe’s side have managed just two wins so far this term. Though Newcastle have only lost once, there is no doubt the club would’ve anticipated a quicker start.
That said, Magpies midfielder Joelinton insists Newcastle are on the right track to where they want to get to but acknowledges the sort of pressure playing for a ‘big club’ brings.
