​McClaren desperate for Newcastle to find goalscoring touch

Newcastle boss Steve McClaren expressed his "frustration" at only beating West Bromwich Albion by a 1-0 margin in the Premier League on Saturday.

"You do worry when you've had so many chances," McClaren told BBC Newcastle.

"A couple of balls flashed through our box and I thought 'this would be cruel'. We hung on and deservedly so."

He continued: "We've progressed and we've come on. We weren't even getting shots on target early in the season.

"It's still a frustration - we really looked a good team going forward without getting the end product of more goals."
