Newcastle sit third in the Premier League table after 15 matches and have progressed through to the last-16 of the Carabao Cup.
Eddie Howe’s side have lost just once in 17 matches in all competitions this season and are the league’s in-form side as it stands. The Magpies head coach and his players have received plenty of praise so far this season.
Howe was awarded the Premier League’s manager of the month for October with Miguel Almiron winning the player of the month award. Kieran Trippier, Bruno Guimaraes and Nick Pope have also been nominated so far this season.
But which players have impressed the most? To find out, we’ve ranked every Newcastle player to have received a matchday player rating based on their average rating so far.
Players must have played over 15 minutes of normal time in a match in order to receive a rating. Only players who have been rated in more than one match this season have been included in the rankings.
Therefore, Karl Darlow, Loris Karius, Paul Dummett, Matt Ritchie, Emil Krafth, Jamal Lewis and Javier Manquillo have not been included.
Here are the rankings from lowest to highest...
13. Alexander Isak - 7.00
After a dazzling debut against Liverpool, it has been a frustrating spell for Isak at Newcastle so far. Two goals in three starts is a respectable return but he will be looking to make a bigger impact after the World Cup break once he returns to full fitness. Photo: George Wood
14. Nick Pope - 7.13
The England international has kept the joint most clean sheets in the Premier League this season and has been in very impressive form since signing from Burnley in the summer. Although there have been games where he’s hardly been called into action, and his player rating has suffered as a result, he has been a dependable presence between the sticks and made a number of impressive saves.

15. Sven Botman - 7.21
The 22-year-old has formed a crucial part in Newcastle’s best defence in the Premier League so far this season. Although it took him a bit of time to settle into the side, since October he has been a regular at the back and hardly put a foot wrong. The sky is the limit for the young defender based on his early showings for the club. | Getty Images
16. Jamaal Lascelles - 7.33
The Newcastle captain’s average rating has benefited due to him only receiving three ratings so far for his two cup starts and Premier League outing against Liverpool back in August. But with a goal and a clean sheet to his name in those three appearances, he hasn’t let the side down the few times he has been called upon. | Getty Images
