St. James' Park, Newcastle upon Tyne, ENG

Fabian Schar - Strong all around contribution in drawSchar registered two shots (one on goal) and one cross (accurate) in Saturday's 2-2 draw with AFC Bournemouth. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 87th minute.

ImpactSchar put in a strong all around performance Saturday. He prevailed in most of his aerial and ground duels, created chances that his attackers should have done better to capitalize upon and was dangerous in attack, placing a long range effort that exercised the keeper and a strike that flew just over the bar. The regular starting defender is in hot form, he has got himself on the scoresheet three times in the last four games.

Miguel Almiron - No on goal efforts in drawAlmiron generated four shots (none on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and created a chance in Saturday's 2-2 draw with AFC Bournemouth.

ImpactAlmiron was successful in winning the ball when engaging in midfield duals Saturday but the striker did not manage to place any shots on goal. He was subbed after 89 minutes for Matt Ritchie. The regular starter is not having a great season, he has not scored since December and has only posted a total of three EPL goals.

Matt Ritchie - Super sub rescues point for MagpiesRitchie scored from his only on goal effort and placed one cross (not accurate) in Saturday's 2-2 draw with AFC Bournemouth.

ImpactRitchie came on from the bench after 90 minutes for Miguel Almiron to try and rescue a point for Newcastle. The strategy worked, with the former Cherrie finding the net with his first kick of the game during a goalmouth scramble. The veteran striker is rarely used, this was his first appearance since December.

Anthony Gordon - Spot kick strike in drawGordon placed four shots, scoring with one of his two on goal efforts. He also created three chances in Saturday's 2-2 draw with AFC Bournemouth.

ImpactGordon scored from a coolly taken spot kick Saturday. The striker had other chances to find the net but his final execution was poor. It has been five EPL games since the regular starter got on the scoresheet from open play.

Martin Dubravka - Concedes two in drawDubravka completed four saves and conceded two goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw with AFC Bournemouth.

ImpactDubravka faced seven on goal attempts Saturday. He pulled off a series of top-class saves from Dominic Solanke and Marcus Tavernier efforts, but made an error which led to the Cherries opening goal. It has now been nine EPL games since the Slovakian international posted a clean sheet, and it is unlikely he will deliver one in the Magpies' next which is an away fixture with title contenders Arsenal

Marcus Tavernier - On goal strike in drawTavernier generated two shots (one on goal), seven crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 2-2 draw with Newcastle United.

ImpactTavernier harrowed Newcastle's defense Saturday as he attacked down the Cherries left flank. When he did get into an opportunity to create a play his crossing accuracy let him down. His on goal effort was an excellent strike that was denied only by the reflexes of Martin Dubravka in the Magpies goal. The 24-year-old is usually a starter but he has not found the net or orchestrated an assist since December.

Antoine Semenyo - Blistering strike in drawSemenyo scored from his only shot on goal, and placed three crosses (none accurate) in Saturday's 2-2 draw with Newcastle United.

ImpactSemenyo was largely contained by the Magpies Saturday as he played in his usual attacking midfield role down the right flank. When he was on the ball his physical strength was menacing. His goal, a thunderous strike from the edge of the penalty area, was a classic example of what he can do. He was subbed after 79 minutes. The Ghanaian international is often used from the bench versus as a starter, and this was his first goal since December.
