	Michael Oakes	Stood no chance with the Shearer goal but was not really tested.
	Lee Naylor	Dealt with Shearer and Lua Lua well, adapting to the Premiership really well.

	Paul Butler	Won most 50/50`s with Alan Shearer and had one great chance to score.

	Mark Kennedy	His most impressive performance of the season. Put in some superb balls and helped Naylor well.
	Keith Andrews	Looked out of sorts in the first half, but made up for it with an impressive second half..

	Henri Camara	Hit the bar in the last minute and his pace caused Newcastle all sorts of problems.
