Newcastle player ratings v Arsenal: Magpies mainstay brilliant with 9/10 display
Forwards
Ayoze Perez – 9: What a hot streak the Spaniard is on, after his third goal in as many games. His ability to get into the right place at the right time allowed him to pull off an impressive finish to level the scores. He will be claiming the assist to Ritchie’s strike too, with a smart flick which guided it into the path of the Scottish winger.
Dwight Gayle – 7: A willing runner up front, chances simply never fell his way. However that cannot take away from his lack of effort, as he attempted to feed off Shelvey’s long balls – a tactic which worked to perfection as it led to Perez’s goal.
