Newcastle United manager Chris Hughton as admitted his side can have no complaints after they crashed to a 3-0 defeat at Manchester United on their return to the Premier League.

After cruising to the Championship title last term, the Magpies were never going to have it all their own way at Old Trafford and goals from Dimitar Berbatov, Darren Fletcher and Ryan Giggs ensured the hosts started their campaign with a dominant victory.

Hughton wants to forget about their early loss and concentrate on next weekend's home clash against managerless Aston Villa.

"It is always a daunting task coming here and all you can do is restrict the opportunities they have and I think we did that for periods of the game," said Hughton.

"I think with them having so much of the ball and the quality they have got you just don't want to concede again.

"For us the important thing was to come out of today with some credit going into what is an important game next week."
