Farke was left disappointed as his side squandered some fantastic opportunities to take all three points from St James’s Park, but had to settle for a share of the spoils in 0-0 draw.

Three players made their United Premier League debuts against the Canaries – and German Farke thinks Steve Bruce has got himself a couple of gems in the winter window, having added Valentino Lazaro and Nabil Bentaleb to his ranks.

“You can’t compare the two clubs in terms of the quality they are able to bring in the window," he said.

“Players like Valentino Lazaro and Nabil Bentaleb I know from Germany, they are top class players.

“We are a self-funded club who have spent barely £1million, so you can’t really compare us.

“We try our best and work with our tools.”
