Newcastle United manager Rafa Benitez insists that he has no issues with his squad.

There have been many reports suggesting Benitez was unhappy at a lack of transfer funds this summer.

Newcastle have not won a game this season and some are blaming squad unrest due to the manager's summer comments on transfers.

But he denies any issues.

Speaking to Chronicle Live after the 3-1 loss to Nottingham Forest in the Carabao Cup, Benitez said: "There are no big issues.

"In the game you want players competing and who care.

"There are things that can happen in the dressing room that can happen but the atmosphere is good."
