Newcastle have lost their opening four home games in a league season for the first time in their history.
A record Rafa will not be happy with and one that has alarm bells ringing.
The stats get even worse ...
◾Leicester have won three consecutive away games in all competitions against Newcastle for the first time since November 1965.
◾Since the start of last season, no team has lost more home Premier League games than Newcastle (11, level with Huddersfield).
◾Newcastle failed to have a single shot on target against Leicester in the second half.
What's next?
It is a trip to Old Trafford for Newcastle next week as they face Manchester United in Saturday's late kick-off (17:30 BST). A "relegation 6-pointer" as some fans are pointing out.
