Didn't have much to do, couldn't really stop the goal it was a solid header

Defensively I thought he was brilliant, just so tough, almost scored but denied by a brilliant save

Made a mistake which led to the corner they scored from, but otherwise handled the Newcastle physicality well

Poor for their goal – even a cursory challenge would have likely made it more difficult for Woltemade to head that well. But BOY DID HE MAKE UP FOR IT! 3 tackles, 3 interceptions, 9 clearances - 1 goal to break their scabby little hearts!

Effective in the first half, his booking – the one he always seems to pick up for that same foul – blunted him a bit in the second

Very tidy, made a great chance for Timber but Pope pulled off a superb close range save

Worked so hard today, a real box to box performance, and provided an assist for Mikel Merino's equaliser

Probably should have been on the scoresheet, Pope made a couple of really good saves, but what he brought to the table today was obvious

Lively enough, made a chance for Eze which he hooked over

Had 6 shots today, and I thought his first half was by some distance his best performance in a 'big game'

I thought it was a bit of an odd change at the time, but what the hell do I know? A really good header to equalise and set the stage for the big comeback

Didn't really threaten, but the one time he had a chance to break away, some Newcastle oaf just hacked him down

Made that good chance for MLS, got an assist for the Gabriel winner with a good corner

0/10 - How VAR/Gillet/PGMOL can stand over the decision to overturn that penalty. A genuinely appalling decision, and we won anyway, so 10/10 for us and those wankers can stick it up their holes
