    Newcastle head coach Steve McClaren's first game in charge of the club ended with an entertaining 2-2 draw against Southampton on then first weekend of top-flight action and he has not ruled out any more new arrivals.

    "There's still a long way to go in terms of settling everybody down. There are a few who have been left out who are obviously not happy - and that's normal - and a few who have a bit to prove," he said.

     "Pre-season, the first game, another week's training - we are getting towards what we want to move on with, and still with two weeks to go, things will happen in the window. 

     "We will wait and see."

    Swansea provided one of the surprises of the opening round of the Premier League season last weekend when they came back from a goal down twice to draw at champions Chelsea.

    Blues boss Jose Mourinho's criticism of Chelsea doctor Eva Carneiro has since grabbed the headlines and Swans boss Garry Monk believes that has denied his side the credit they deserved for the result.

    "It's [Swansea's performance] been overshadowed. The media's focused on the wrong thing," said Monk.

    "They should have focused on what a good performance my players put in."

    Swansea City v Newcastle United (15:00 BST)

    Hi football fans. We should be in for a treat today at the Liberty Stadium if both teams continue where they left off last week.

    Swansea earned an impressive 2-2 draw at reigning Premier League champions Chelsea, while Newcastle also looked good as they finished with the same scoreline at home to Southampton.

    Let's hope for more of the same.
