Newcastle United vs Crystal Palace player ratings, as 'superb' Nick Pope shines

Newcastle United endured frustration as they had to settle for a point against Crystal Palace.

Here's how Lee Ryder has rated the Newcastle United player:

Nick Pope 9

A superb display with a series of fine stops as Palace threatened to cause a shock. Pope stood up to everything that came his way. Man of the match.

Kieran Trippier 8

Can't do much more than keep dropping the ball into space. Put in 15 crosses and will want more change from the forwards than he's getting.

Fabian Schar 7

A pretty good display with plenty of clearances. Had chance to win it at the death.

Sven Botman 7

Solid defensive display and chances to score.

Matt Targett 7

Gave it his all before coming off. Played in some dangerous deliveries and made nine crosses.

Joelinton 8

Has simply picked up where he left off last season. Some important challenges.

Sean Longstaff 7

A good effort. Put himself about and almost scored in first half with glancing header.

Joe Willock 7

Battled hard and denied by a VAR call. Hooked another effort wide.

Miguel Almiron 7

Spent the afternoon threatening Palace. Struck the post and was finding gaps. He looked disappointed to be hooked.

Ryan Fraser 6

Tough afternoon as he found just one accurate cross and picked up a yellow card. But work-rate was certainly there.

Alexander Isak 6

Made a great chance for himself but will be disappointed with his decision to dink it over the keeper. A couple of other sightings. Has been a long week but will impove.

Subs

Jacob Murphy 6 (for Almiron 70)

Had a couple of attempts. Did OK.

Elliot Anderson 7 (for Fraser 70)

Had Palace on the back-foot.

Dan Burn (for Targett 79)

Chris Wood (for Isak 90)

*Subs must play 15 minutes to get a mark.
