John Carver bemoaned a tentative start as Newcastle United slipped to a sixth straight Premier League defeat against Tottenham on Sunday.
John Carver feels Newcastle United's experienced players can help lift the gloom around the club after suffering a sixth consecutive Premier League defeat against Tottenham.
Carver saw his side fall to a 3-1 defeat at a sparse St James' Park as fans of the club protested at a perceived lack of ambition from owner Mike Ashley.
Goals from Nacer Chadli, Christian Eriksen and Harry Kane did the damage with the danger of relegation remaining for Carver and his side.
