CandH Ratings man Niall McDonald hands out the marks and Hugh weighs in with some of his own below!
Lanzini enjoyed a top game
Randolph: Sharp save in a mêlée in first half and a superb one from Costa in the second 6
Kouyate: Got away with a couple of yellow card tackles in the first half. Pushed in to centre-back for the injured Reid 5
Reid: Departed with an injury that we can only hope is not serious 6
Fonte: Does not instill total confidence yet. His distribution has room for improvement too 6
Cresswell: Looks much happier with Snodgrass ahead of him. Saw plenty of the ball in attacking positions 6
Noble: Heated debate around us if he was responsible for their first. For me the ball should have gone to the far post. Thought the skipper had a decent second half 5
Obiang: Chelsea didn’t attack through the middle too often, partly due to Pedro’s efforts 6
Lanzini: I confess we were halfway to Westfield when he got his goal. Before then Manu tried to create at every opportunity 7
Feghouli: “you let the game pass you by!” a voice behind me offered as he was subbed 5
Snodgrass: Carried real threat in the first 25 mins. Less effective when he drifted inside 5
Carroll: Threw himself at every ball without ever really getting on the end of one. Looked out on his feet after 70 mins 5
Subs
Ayew: An assist for the very late consolation goal 5
Byram: Did his best to get forward but found the door firmly shut by Alonso 4
Fernandes: Got another ten minutes or so. Not really a game-changer yet 4
Here’s how Hugh rated the boys
Randolph Two world class saves …another fine performance 8
Kouyate: Distribution not great – wasted at the back 5
Fonte: He’s slowing down and decision making not always great 5
Reid: Calm and composed for the most part – came off with injury looking significant 6
Cresswell: Had the better of his battle with Moses and dangerous going forward 7
Noble: Hard to mark after being responsible for first goal but there was some good work in there as well 5
Obiang Steady without providing anything spectacular 5,
Feghouli: Tried hard but still looks lightweight to me 5,
Snodgrass What energy we did see came from the Scotsman – impressive 6
Lanzini Plenty of decent passes and great with ball at feet 7
Carroll: Slav really has to provide a partner who can get on the end of his knock downs 6
