Newcastle United are in deep trouble as they were taken apart by Brighton at the Amex.
Steve Bruce is facing calls for his removal tonight as Brighton carved open his team, who offered up a gutless display in their biggest match of the seasons.
Bruce was out-thought, his team were out-fought and they ended with no shots on target as Brighton ran out deserved winners.
Here are Newcastle's player ratings on a shameful night.
Martin Dubravka 5
Prevented the scoreline being really ugly.
Javier Manquillo 2
Went missing.
Ciaran Clark 2
Turned inside out for opener, crumbled thereafter but wasn't the only one.
Jamaal Lascelles 4
Unable to inspire the team but hardly inspired by the head coach.
Paul Dummett 4
Lost his cool towards the end. At least he cares.
Isaac Hayden 7
Taken off when Newcastle still had a chance.
Jonjo Shelvey 2
Nowhere to be seen second half.
Ryan Fraser 2
Hit the post in an otherwise gutless showing.
Joe Willock 4
Taken off and easy to see why.
Miguel Almiron 3
Not at it, but not fit.
Joelinton 2
If he is the answer, what is the question?
Subs
Jacob Murphy 3 (for Willock 62)
Made no difference
Jeff Hendrick 2 (for Hayden 45)
Gutless.
Sean Longstaff (for Almiron 76)
