Newcastle manager Rafael Benitez: "When you get just one point at home we cannot be happy but against a top six like Liverpool, creating so many chances, you have to be a little bit happy. The way our players were working, tackling and trying to win every ball was fantastic.

"We have two or three situations when we could be more composed on the ball but we lost these situations. This could make a difference if we can score then they are under pressure and can make mistakes.

Asked about his side's start to the season, Benitez said: "If you see the points and see we are a promoted team then we are pleased but against Huddersfield and Brighton we could have done something more. We have what we have. We are happy with that.

And on playing against his former side Liverpool, the Spaniard said: "Obviously my relationship with the Liverpool fans is very good. My relationship with Liverpool fans comes from years, here it is a fantastic relationship too and I am enjoying every minute."
