7. Vurnon Anita - 4 (Replaced by Siem de Jong 58')
Vurnon Anita's positioning and read of the game was slightly better than Jack Colback's yet the Dutchman's careless passing and ill-timed challenges are becoming increasingly frustrating as Newcastle yet again lose the midfield battle.
Siem de Jong - 5
The attacker had one shot that was tipped over the bar but asides from that didn't manage to change the game after coming on.
