No surprise that the first time Shay Given faced Newcastle - the club at which he made 354 appearances - he demonstrated the quality that has made him one of the finest goalkeepers in the Premier League era. He made a fine first half stop from Steven Taylor, very nearly prevented Leon Best's equaliser and made two first-class saves late on from Yohan Cabaye piledrivers.
