How we rated the Irons against Everton

Niall McDonald hands out the marks

Randolph: A comfortable and confident 2nd debut 7
Zabaleta: A really strong committed performance from Zaba and picked up a very professional yellow card near the end 6
Diop: Pretty solid alongside Ogbonna 7
Ogbonna: One of the best performances I’ve seen from him. Defended excellently 8
Cresswell: Some fine crosses and one of the worst corners I’ve seen (and I’ve seen us mess up plenty) 5
Rice: Showed real quality on the ball, would be good to see more of this aspect of his game 6
Noble: There’ll come a time where we won’t see the skipper dwelling on the ball, chasing and harrying the opposition like this – not sure if I’ll be relieved or miss it 5
Fornals: Maximum effort for an hour; one of the few who looked forwards for a pass 6
Lanzini: I’d like to see him creating a little more. He did try to get beyond Haller from clearances though 6
Snodgrass: Slow pace of both sides helped him complete the full 90 6
Haller: Pretty typical, looks good when involved in the play  6

Subs
Masuaku: Offered some width but I was a little disappointed we didn’t get the ball to him more 5
Ajeti: An energetic cameo! A shot, some neat touches, some tackles… short and sweet 5

Manager:
Limited options in team selection but Moyes put out an organised, committed line-up. No surprises with the substitutions. It was pleasing to see him out overseeing the warm-up before the game  7
