4 Villains (And 6 Heroes) From Newcastle 0-1 Arsenal

The Heroes...

6. Tim Krul

Tim Krul made an excellent save from Theo Walcott's shot early in the first half was once more a calming influence on the Newcastle defence. He caught the ball well and his distribution was the best it has been all season. The goalkeeper is yet to keep at clean sheet at St James Park this season but his contribution has been impressive. The Dutch shot-stopper who is now playing his seventh season for the club will be hoping for some success and hopefully a return to Europe like he experienced in the 2012-13 season. Krul was not at fault for the Gunners' goal as has been the case with a lot of the goals against Newcastle this season.
