The fallout from Newcastle United's defeat against Crystal Palace continues. You can feel the tremors still reverberating from Selhurst Park to St James' Park.
Coming off the back of those two disastrous defeats against Barcelona and Sunderland, the last thing the Magpies - and boss Eddie Howe - could afford was another simpering, pitiful performance. Unfortunately, despite a solid first half which saw them take the lead, that's exactly what they got.
It wasn't all bad for United - but a lot of it was. Here we look at the winners and losers as we look at who must step up in another big week.
Loser - Joelinton
The Brazilian went into the game knowing he needed to keep his nose clean. Joelinton was on nine bookings and a further yellow card would see him suspended for two games, although if he went without one the bar would be reset.
However, the combative midfielder produced a silly, clumsy, unnecessary challenge on Jean-Phillipe Mateta in the second half and will now sit out the games against Bournemouth and Arsenal.

It had been two months since we last saw the youngster due to his thigh injury, and there was doubt whether Howe would start him after such a lengthy spell on the sidelines. Not only did he play from the off, though, he completed 90 minutes as the United boss showed just how much he values the teenager.
Miley showed some classy touches and his usual composure, and set up William Osula's opener. It was a welcome return and there will hopefully be more to come between now and the end of the season.
Loser - Anthony Elanga
After a successful international break, which saw Elanga on the scoresheet as he helped guide Sweden to the World Cup finals, the winger was left on the bench for almost the entirety of the game. He was only thrust into the action with seconds left on the clock after Mateta's injury time penalty.
Away from home, it seemed like an ideal match for Elanga's counter-attacking style of play but the man who shone in the Nou Camp was left kicking his heels.
Loser - Yoane Wissa
For Wissa, see the words on Elanga above. Another game spent perched in the dugout, he didn't touch the ball after his 94th-minute introduction.
Wissa still managed to upset the Newcastle fans, however, by swapping shirts at the final whistle with his old teammate Mateta. He faced a barrage of criticism on social media and while it felt unwarranted, it was also probably an occasion when the under-fire frontman should have read the room a bit better.

Winner - William Osula
Is the Dane the right man to lead Newcastle's line long term? Perhaps not, but the young striker showed his worth again to the club with a goal against Palace, albeit slightly fortuitously. You've got to be in the right place to score them, though, and Osula was certainly better positioned than Nick Woltemade and Yoane Wissa.
Osula continues to impress Howe in training and with his attitude and attributes.
Loser - Eddie Howe
The obvious loser from the weekend. The fallout has been fierce and speculation rife, but more than anhthing else was the body language and demeanour of the Newcastle manager.
He looked flat, some may say a beaten man, struggling for answers. His instructions weren't being listened to, his idea to go with youth backfired and the substitutions were questioned. A bad, bad day for the boss.
