How we rated the Irons

|

sakhoAdrian: Not responsible for goals and made some decent saves 7

Antonio: Felt sorry for him out of position against quality but looked lost 5

Reid: Responsible for the free kick that led to the goal – doesn’t look 100 pc back yet 6

Ogbonna: Outstanding yet again – rock solid. Love him 8

Cresswell: Sound front and back without over-impressing 7

Kouyate: Terrific performance in front of back four – what a way to celebrate new deal 8

Noble: Played in a more advanced role – decent performance 7

Lanzini: Fabulous first half, great goal and brilliant touches 7

Payet: Great contribution but lucky to get away with some sloppy stuff at back 7

Valencia: Whole-hearted display and never stopped running 6

Sakho: Superb to see him back and at his best – always on move and made life hell for defenders 8

Subs: Carroll: Great goal and always a menace 7

Emenike: Showed why Slav rates him with one great right wing run at real speed and cross 6

 Obiang: Usual hard working display 6

    Seems a bit hard on Antonio,was no pen and he is not a natural right back,
    But again a 9 for Slav he could have tried to go defensive when we went in front but no he went for the win
    Great entertainment for any fan from any club watching

    Lanzini a 7?!?!?! – you were better off when you were writing headlines “sex with greggs pasty boiled my bellend” for the Sunday Sport as it’s obvious you know f-all about football.

    What a pointless thread.
    Whetstone, why can’t you just shut the fvck up unless you have something interesting to say. Otherwise you are just another in a long line of boring attention seekers on this site.

    Top guy lads isn’t he.Same sh#t,different site.W#nker!!

    For me none of our guys had a bad game. Lanzini, Ogbonna, Sakho shone. Carroll was great when he came on and nearly scored a couple more. At times Payet’s defensive work isn’t the best, but that’s not what he’s there for – he frightens every team in the Prem – what a ball for Carroll to score!
    Isn’t it just a great feeling to be where we are with even the most obtuse pundits giving us credit.
    Our last two games have been away against sides we used to be pleased to get anything from. Now we are genuinely disappointed when we don’t win.
    Happy days.
