Steve McClaren: 'It's been a feisty week'

Newcastle United boss Steve McClaren says that it has been a "feisty" week at the club following the defeat to Leicester City.

Newcastle United head coach Steve McClaren has revealed that there has been a "feisty" atmosphere at the club following the defeat to Leicester City.

The Magpies were jeered by supporters as they lost 3-0 at home to the Foxes last Saturday, a result which leaves them a point outside the Premier League relegation zone.

McClaren has admitted that his side must improve the standard of their performance when they take on Crystal Palace this weekend.

"We have had a great week on the training pitch. Feisty, competitive, energetic, all the things we lacked last Saturday," he told The Mirror.

"I love feisty sessions. And it was. We got the message across. It was just what we needed. We explained why we lost. For three days we sorted it out. It is one of those weeks coaches like. We needed it. The energy, that is what we want.

"We didn't do the basics last Saturday. We had done for four games and got 7 points. We had spirit against Bournemouth. Attitude, organisation discipline. The basics. We have had a setback. The performance wasn't up to normal standards. We have to get back to it."

Newcastle face Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday.
