5. 11 - It Is 11 Matches Since Newcastle Managed To Keep A Clean Sheet In The Premier League
The most-recent match in which Tim Krul was not beaten in the Newcastle goal? The 1-0 victory over Aston Villa on February 28th - also the last time the Magpies won a game. In their last 10 matches, Newcastle have conceded 21 goals at an average of more than two a game. That is the primary reason behind why the Magpies have lost nine and drawn one of those matches. They must bolt shut the floodgates at St James' Park if they want to finally secure a victory - but they simply seem incapable of doing so.
