Lightweight and far-too easily knocked off the ball, Cabella has been unable to regularly impose his silky skills and creative ability on Premier League matches. However, for his brilliant first-half away at Chelsea, his great display at Hull City, his good performance against Arsenal, and just generally because he has been a rare creative spark (alongside Ayoze Perez) in an abject Newcastle side going forward, Cabella gets a 4. He must improve for next year though and start to prove he can be a star in the making.
