Newcastle 4 Tottenham 0 – Interesting independent ratings on the Newcastle United players

It ended Newcastle 4 Tottenham 0.

A game that saw United run out very much the deserved winners after battering Spurs.

The only ‘success’ for Tottenham was having possession of the ball in non-threatening areas.

Two goals in each half for Eddie Howe’s side and what a performance, especially with so many players missing.

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.

Every event of importance is taken into account, with a positive or negative effect on ratings weighted in relation to its area on the pitch and its outcome.’

Now whoscored have published their independent player ratings for this Newcastle 4 Tottenham 0 match:

As you can see, Anthony Gordon scoring a perfect 10! A superb all round performance and he scored one and got two assists.

The top rated Tottenham starter was James Maddison who was rated 6.8, that the same rating as Newcastle’s lowest rated player in their starting eleven, Dan Burn. Though I think really harsh on Burn as he was excellent today and certainly no Newcastle United player deserved less than 7.0 today.

(***The Whoscored system only allows ratings for four of the subs to show at any one time, Livramento was rated 6.3 by their automated system)
