Arsenal v Newcastle United Player Ratings

We don’t carry player ratings as part of our match report but after putting it to the editorial team I have officially been appointed as The Mag jury and here are my marks (out of 10) for the Arsenal match;

Krul (8)
Simpson (7)
Coloccini (8)
Williamson (6)
Santon (6)
Ben Arfa (7)
Tiote (8)
Cabaye (7)
Gutierrez (7)
Obertan (4)
Ba (7)

(For Santon 46mins) Perch (7)
(For  Obertan 61mins) Shola (7)
(For Tiote 81mins) Guthrie (not on long enough)

A last gasp defeat but the team can be proud of their resilient performance, with Tiote possibly man of the match ahead of Krul.

What do you think?
