Martyn 6
Couple of good saves from Collins and Barmby but equally a few blunders that scared us all. Again his inability to command the penalty area could have cost us.

Hiden 6
Nothing special but solid when it matters. Had plenty of defensive cover from Hoppy.

T1000 7
Contained Jail bird very well. Still not as good as Whethers on getting into dangerous positions on corners.

Lucas 8
The king once again. Played with real confidence, almost arrogant at times. Best player on the pitch by a mile.

Harte 6
Didn't go forward enough but midfield to blame.

Hopkin 2
The canary yellow strip should have assisted him in passing the ball but had exactly the opposite effect; maybe he's colour-blind eh.

Haaland 2
Same problem as Hoppy and looked very slow. Wasn't prepared to go forward at all.

Bowyer 5
100% for effort as usual but his passes were easily intercepted by them.

Kewell 4
The jewel failed to sparkle once again. The boy must get through this rough patch. Should have been subbed at half time.

Hasselbaink 5
Lazy day for the big man, didn't chase, didn't move. First touch let him down many times (as warned by Da Rev). Must learn how to win the ball in the air occasionally.

Wijnhard 6
Felt sorry him as on another day he would won a couple of penalties for us. That cheating Italian no 15 - Meterazzi was holding him, pulling his shirt, throwing him yet the ref failed to see any of it. Good physical test for him.

Ribeirio 7
Breath of fresh air when he came on for Clyde, although Jimmy should have gone off. He was dangerous going forward, taking players on and beating them. If only GG put him on at half time.

Lilley 7
Did more in 10mins than JFH did in the entire second half. Nearly snatched for us with a superb header.

MOTM : King Lucas
Ref : Tunnel visioned. Missed all the dirty tricks employed by Meterazzi.
