DRAB... NOT FAB

Schar blasts lack of creativity as toothless Toon fail in front of goal again

- BY ROSS HEPPENSTALL

FABIAN SCHAR did not miss the target after Newcastle fired another blank in the absence of wantaway striker Alexander Isak.

Deep within the bowels of rain-lashed Elland Road, the centre-back was honest enough to admit that Eddie Howes frontmen had flopped.

And Schar could not hide his frustration at Newcastle's winless start to the season.

The Swiss defender said: “We need to try and create more chances. We didn’t create enough to score goals and it's something we have to work on.
