#2 Newcastle United

Newcastle United v Leicester City - Premier League
No matter how great the coach is, it's the players that decide results

Newcastle are yet another team on this list who have failed to secure a win in their first seven games thus far. They have arguably one of the best managers in the division at the helm, Rafa Benitez, but unfortunately the same cannot be said for the players out on the pitch.

There appears to be a lack of chemistry in the Newcastle squad, and it shows each time they step out onto the pitch. And whilst they still score goals quite frequently, their shape and structure is warped, which allows the opposition to easily get through on goal, hence why the Magpies are yet to get three points. Their strike force is strong, but the rest of the team is considerably weak.

Newcastle signed seven players in the summer, but not a single one has settled yet. It's too early to tell whether they'll turn out to be great assets to the side, but if one was to pass judgement based off of the performances seen so far, they'd suggest that there's cause for concern.
