9. Miguel Almiron - 6
As ever, you can't fault Almiron work rate but lacked a cutting edge when Newcastle were on top in the opening 30 minutes... 6 Photo: Richard Heathcote
10. Allan Saint-Maximin - 6
Tried to showboat too much rather than doing the simple stuff. Failed to deliver from good areas... 6 Photo: IAN KINGTON
11. Joelinton - 5
Does not make the runs you'd expect of a striker. Completely static at times... 5 Photo: Richard Heathcote
12. Matt Ritchie (Lazaro, 73) - 5
Had a late shot from distance but was introduced too late to make an impact... 5 Photo: Ian MacNicol
