It's clear if you think Faye is that good.

Just got back sounds like N'Zogbia had another stormer!

Seems Faye will get the same rating every week whatever he does. In my opinion he had his best game in a Newcastle shirt yesterday. Hassled the Blackburn players well and protected his defence like he's asked to do. Also his passing was spot on.

 

But no, you've got to hate him haven't you.

Given - 8 - excellent

Carr - 5 - still not good enough

Babayaro - 5 -still not good enough

Boum - 5 - average

Taylor - 7 - unlucky, model player

Bowyer - 6 - steady

Clark - 7 - sound

Faye - 5 - average, played better today but still not good enough

Zog - 8 - top goal

Owen - 7 - will get better

Shearer -6 - useful, but lacks the cutting edge.

To be honest, it was an abysmal performance and if we had have got beaten (which so easily could have happened then alot of the ratings would have been vastly different)

 

Given 8 - Top goalkeeping

Carr 5 - Poor

Taylor 6 - some good moments, but you could feel he was going to get sent off

Boum 6 - Get some new boots. ALWAYS falls over

Baba 5 - aimless balls galore

 

Bowyer 5 - Poor distribution and didn't really make any trademark runs

Clark 5.5 - At least tried to pass the ball

Faye 5 - Abysmal first half. Steady 2nd

Zoggy 8 - Worked his balls off, set up a goal and took his brilliantly

 

Owen 6.5 - Good goal. Otherwise quiet

Shearer 6 - Great goal. Otherwise static.

 

Nevertheless, we won and hopefully that will give us a bit confidence.

I agree, much improved and as you say his passing was spot on. He gave the ball away a couple of times but redeemed himself by tracking back and winning it back. I sometimes think people mark the name rather than the preformance. All subjective of course.

Watched on Sky.

 

Given......................7.5 couple of good saves

Carr........................6 average

Andy O'Boumsong....5 Whoa, what are you doing????

Taylor.....................5 Stupid, didn't need to make the tackle to get booked (1st time), shouldn't take the piss in front of that ref.

Babayaro................6.5 Didn't have much to pass to 1st half, was OK

Bowyer...................4 I think Given had more pass completitions. Waste.

Faye.......................5 Caught on the ball too oftenbut did track back for it.

Clark......................6 Was always looking to make a good pass.

N'Zogbia.................7.5 Made use of 2nd half space. Great assist, special goal.MOM

Shearer..................5 Offered nothing as an attacking threat. Hit the freekick hard.

Owen......................6 Didn't get the ball much, at least he showed for it.

 

Bramble.................7 Decisive, composed defending. Didn't expect to say that!

 

Away support..........10 Sounded good on the telly

 

Souness.................5 Blackburn came out like Lions in the 2nd half, we came out like lambs. Hampered in his selection options though. Blackburn had a clear game plan, i.e. close down Baba and Taylor, leave the likes Bowyer to give it away without any interference from them (which he did), press early, Bellars creates space with movement, midfielders run into it blah blah, you saw it. Our game plan? No idea, couldn't see a pattern.

 

Blackburn were unlucky. They should have scored, mixture of bad luck, average goal scorers and Shay Given mean they didn't. If they had of scored we would not have got back into the game. People say they shouldn't play Bellamy up on his own but they all chances for 60 odd minutes. However when you pay a lot of money for top forwards, they only need half a chance to make a difference.
