Eddie Howe's side suffered their third successive Premier League loss as Roberto De Zerbi's Brighton swept them aside at the Amex Stadium. Evan Ferguson struck a hat-trick for the Seagulls as they continued their impressive start, moving up to fourth in the process.

The Magpies now have not won since their opening day 5-1 victory over Aston Villa, losing out against Manchester City, Liverpool and Brighton. Reflecting on the game, Shearer tweeted: "Brilliant Brighton. Magnificent Ferguson. Other than Wilson Newcastle very poor in every department today. A tough start to the season i know but they were all over place." Howe cut a frustrated figure on the touchline and admitted his side simply were not good enough. He told Sky Sports: "I thought it was a good start from the team, we were bright in the early stages and we had a couple of really good chances to score. "When you come here and you get those moments you need to take them - we didn't. Uncharacteristic goals to concede today. The first one was disappointing for us and that's always key in a game. "The second one was a shock to the system because at that moment it was a very even game and I sort of felt that they didn't really cut us open. I think a 3-1 scoreline is damaging for us but I don't think it reflected the whole game." Three defeats on the bounce leave Newcastle languishing in the bottom half. Having had a difficult start to the season by playing four of last season's top seven, the Magpies return after the international break with another tricky test, this time against Brentford at St James' Park.
