Tottenham have lost their first two Premier League matches and failed to score in both as rejuvenated duo Anthony Elanga and Yoane Wissa struck to earn Newcastle a 2-0 victory. <p>Spurs' big-spending summer, in which they have splashed £320m on eight new players, is yet to have an impact on Roberto De Zerbi's side, who were booed off a week on from being thrashed 3-0 at Brentford and lacked a cutting edge in their first home league game despite handing a debut to forward Omar Marmoush.</p><p>De Zerbi's other key signing, £75m winger Savio, has already been dealt an injury blow, missing out with "muscle fatigue", while midfielder Sandro Tonali, who left Newcastle in a £100m move, was mocked by his former supporters as they collected their first league win under Matthias Jaissle.</p><ul><li><strong><a href="https://www.skysports.com/football/tottenham-hotspur-vs-newcastle-united/559463">As it happened</a> | <a href="https://www.skysports.com/football/tottenham-hotspur-vs-newcastle-united/teams/559463">Teams</a> | <a href="https://www.skysports.com/football/tottenham-hotspur-vs-newcastle-united/stats/559463">Stats</a> | </strong><strong><a href="https://qrcode.skysports.com/skysports/PLHLmatchreports">Watch FREE PL highlights</a></strong></li><li><strong>Latest news and rumours:…
