Matt Ritchie reflects on Kenedy's penalty - and reveals who Newcastle United's designated taker is.
Ritchie is adamant Newcastle will continue to improve with every passing match as the summer signings become acclimatised to life on Tyneside.
“I think we looked solid, although I also think we looked solid against Spurs too,” Ritchie added of the draw at Cardiff.
“We conceded two goals, but I don’t think that was through really bad defending, I think it was through good play from Tottenham.
“We’ve got a good solid base, as we had last season. Now, we just have to keep trying to improve and get better week by week.
“The new players will learn the system and how we want to play, and we’re only going to get better.
"I was supposed to be penalty taker on Saturday but I was suibstituted before we got the penalty."
