SouthamptonAllows two agains Sunderland
Ramsdale made four saves and allowed two goals in Sunday's 2-1 defeat against Sunderland.
Analysis: Ramsdale would hold a clean sheet through the first half but lose it soon after, allowing two goals while making four saves. This is a rough spell of play after a seven-goal loss in UCL play earlier in the week, having only just shut out Chelsea. The club faces Crystal Palace next on April 12, a team they shut out earlier in the season, although Nick Pope started in net.
Concedes seven goals in loss
Ramsdale recorded six saves and allowed seven goals in Wednesday's 7-2 loss against Barcelona.
Analysis: Ramsdale got picked apart for seven goals in Wednesday's Champions League meltdown as Newcastle's defense completely caved under Barcelona's relentless pressure. He still flashed some resistance, including a sharp late stop on Lamine Yamal, but the sheer volume and quality of chances were just too much to handle. He finished with six saves to keep the scoreline from getting even uglier, and now shifts focus to bouncing back in Sunday's derby against Sunderland.
Three saves for win
Ramsdale made three saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 1-0 victory versus Chelsea. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 84th minute.
Analysis: Ramsdale stopped all three shots he faced against Chelsea and earned his first Premier League clean sheet in a while. The goalkeeper was good throughout the match and stood tall at a few key moments to earn all three points. There's a big test coming up with a mid-week clash against Barcelona a tall order for Ramsdale.
Concedes late penalty
Ramsdale made one save and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 1-1 draw against Barcelona.
Analysis: Ramsdale turned in a composed outing during Tuesday's Champions League clash against Barcelona and helped Newcastle hold firm deep into the second half while Barcelona struggled to generate much from open play. He was finally beaten in the sixth minute of stoppage time when Lamine Yamal buried a penalty low into the corner after Ramsdale dove the wrong way. Up until that moment, Newcastle looked on track to secure the win, underlined by the fact Ramsdale was forced into just one save on the night. He is expected to keep his spot between the posts for Saturday's clash against Chelsea after starting the last three matches across three different competitions ahead of Nick Pope, which suggests he may now be the club's first-choice goalkeeper moving forward.
Four saves in league start
Ramsdale made four saves and allowed one goal in Wednesday's 2-1 win against Manchester United.
Analysis: Ramsdale took his chance after replacing Nick Pope in the lineup, producing four good saves with nothing more he could have done about the goal conceded. Whether the change becomes permanent remains to be seen, but this display will certainly go a long way in boosting his chances. Newcastle face a demanding run of fixtures ahead, with the most significant being a UCL round of 16 first leg against Barcelona on Tuesday.
Saves penalty in win
Ramsdale made four saves and allowed two goals in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Qarabag.
Analysis: Ramsdale was handed a rare start with his side holding a commanding advantage from the first leg. He made four saves, highlighted by a penalty save, as Newcastle advanced to the round of 16. Despite the strong showing, Nick Pope remains the clear first choice, limiting Ramsdale's prospects for regular minutes.
Three saves in defeat
Ramsdale made three saves and allowed one goal in Friday's 1-0 defeat to Manchester United.
Analysis: Ramsdale repelled three of four Manchester United shots on target Friday as Newcastle United fell in a fragmented 1-0 away defeat. With regular starter Nick Pope (groin) unavailable, Newcastle's backup keeper has preoduced 15 saves and six clearances across seven starting appearances (all competitions) while conceding 10 goals. With Pope's return imminent, it is an open question as to who will serve between the sticks Tuesday for Newcastle when they with embattled Burnley.
Concedes two in draw
Ramsdale had two saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Chelsea.
Analysis: Ramsdale conceded two goals for the third time in five appearances and is up to a total of 11 saves, compared to eight goals against through that span. This was also the third time in four outings that he made at least two saves. Up next for Newcastle United is a meeting with Manchester United on Friday.
One save in loss
Ramsdale registered one save and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-0 defeat to Sunderland.
Analysis: Ramsdale produced one notable save against Wilson Isidor but faced minimal work beyond that and was unlucky to be beaten by an own goal from Nick Woltemade. He has started the last five games across all competitions, conceding six goals while recording 10 saves and without any clean sheet. The goalkeeper is next set to face Chelsea on Saturday.
Concedes two in draw
Ramsdale recorded six saves and allowed two goals in Wednesday's 2-2 draw versus Bayer Leverkusen. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 82nd minute.
Analysis: Ramsdale conceded an own goal off Bruno Guimaraes and a late goal from Leverkusen following a build-up play. Despite making six saves, the Newcastle defense allowed 17 shots and seven on target, leaving Ramsdale with a heavy workload on the night. He has now failed to keep a clean sheet in all four of his starts for Newcastle since Nick Pope's injury against Marseille in their previous Champions League fixture. Pope is expected to reclaim the starting role once he returns from injury later in December.
Two saves in win
Ramsdale recorded two saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 win over Burnley.
Analysis: Ramsdale put together his best performance among his four league appearances so far, as this marked the first time he had more than one save in a match. This was also the second time in the last three outings that he held opponents to no more than one goal. Up next in league play for Newcastle United is a meeting with Sunderland on Sunday.
Concedes twice late Tuesday
Ramsdale registered no saves and allowed two goals in Tuesday's 2-2 draw versus Tottenham Hotspur.
Analysis: Ramsdale made his second start of the season Tuesday with Nick Pope (groin) out. He held strong through most of the match but conceded two goals to Cristian Romero late, including Romero's bicycle kick in the 95th minute. Those two shots were the only shots on target he faced in the match, leaving him without a save. Ramsdale is set to start again Saturday versus Burnley, a side which has scored 15 goals through 13 matches this season.
Concedes once in victory
Ramsdale had one save and allowed one goal in Saturday's 4-1 victory against Everton.
Analysis: Ramsdale repelled one of two Everton shots on target Saturday as Newcastle earned a 4-1 road victory. The veteran's appearance comes in favor of Nick Pope (groin) who suffered an injury in training and marks Ramsdale's second league appearance of the season. If Pope remains on the shelf, look for Ramsdale between the sticks Tuesday when Newcastle hosts Tottenham Hotspur.
