Newcastle United defender Jamaal Lascelles has revealed that new head coach Steve McClaren is intent on bringing an attractive style of play to the team at St James' Park.
The 21-year-old, who signed for the Magpies last year but spent the season on loan at former club Nottingham Forest, is confident that the team can deliver McClaren's vision.
"The minute we walked in, Steve McClaren got us in and we had a meeting," Lascelles told the Chronicle. "He told us how he wanted to play.
"He wants to get the ball popping around and hopefully we can carry that on into the season because that's what he wants. He has high expectations and high demands."
Newcastle will begin the Premier League season at home against Southampton on August 9.
