With the fine margins and luck having regularly gone against them recently, these last three results has showcased just how well they have been playing.

Following up that excellent cup victory over Chelsea, another great performance and deserved win (and clean sheet) against Arsenal.

Then this against Nottingham Forest today.

Looking at the individuals in black and white, interesting to get an independent perspective on how this played out.

‘Whoscored ratings use data from every single Premier League match, over 200 raw statistics included in the automated calculation of a player’s rating, weighted according to their influence within the game.

Now whoscored have published their independent player ratings for this Nottingham Forest 1 Newcastle 3 match:

As you can see, seven players received a rating of 7.0 or more.

With five of them playing in black and white!

Elanga (7.7) and Murillo (7.4) for Forest.

However, man of the match Joelinton (8.4) led the way for United.

Isak (7.5) and Longstaff (7.3) excellent.

Then supersub Barnes (7.1) and Hall (7.0) also having really good games.

Indeed, I think everybody played well for Newcastle and in reality, nobody deserved less than 7.0 for the away side.
