Newcastle United fullback Kevin Mbabu insists they'll soon start climbing the table.

The Magpies are winless in the Premier League so far this season and tumbled to the bottom of the table following their 6-1 loss at Manchester City on Saturday.

Mbabu told the Evening Chronicle: "It's difficult to explain, but you can't make mistakes against a big team.

“I couldn't watch the rest of the game as I was in the changing room (after limping off). It was a shame.

“We need to keep our heads up and focus on the next game against Norwich.

“We just need to keep working. I think what we did in the first half was really good.

“It will pay (off) one day. We need to keep doing what we're doing."
