There's plenty of work for Matthias Jaissle to do after Newcastle United's 4-1 defeat at Coventry City, starting with a key change in attack.

GiveMeSport's Tom Cunningham argues that Newcastle United manager Matthias Jaissle must drop Jacob Murphy and start Bazoumana Toure to improve results and unlock striker Yoane Wissa. The call follows Newcastle's 4-1 defeat against Frank Lampard's Coventry City, in which the 31-year-old Murphy struggled and was substituted after just 59 minutes.
Cunningham notes that Newcastle invested £42m to sign Toure, who previously completed 47 take-ons in the Bundesliga with Hoffenheim. The writer contends that Toure's speed and directness would provide much-needed service to Wissa, who should be returned to leading the frontline rather than playing in an attacking midfield role.
