I'll leave the personal digs aside...
Jaks a very good shot stopper, better than Marshall but pretty much all the other parts of his game are worse. He's not good under crosses and his distribution leaves a lot to be desired. He really reminds me of Boaz in a lot of ways.
Marshall is Mr Reliable, he's taken a battering this season with us, but his performances have never dropped. He's your standard 7/10 every week. Eldin is probably the most confidence-dependant player I've seen in a long while, it's all good while he's beating his chest, but can he produce reliable displays over a 38 game season?
Simple answer is no, there's big errors in him, we've seen them before and his response wasn't good. Everyone seems to be forgetting when he threw the ball in his own net and had to be taken off 'injured'. Also he had a lapse of concentration last night, a cross came in, he dropped it and was scrambling a little. Luckily, there were no Newcastle players around otherwise that could have easily cost us. Things like that get glossed over. It's the tiny errors, lapses of concentration why he isn't our first choice. There's a reason why one of Phelan's first signings was a keeper, he definitely had it as high priority.
