How we rated the Irons against Saints

Hughie hands out the marks

Fabianski: Quiet afternoon essentially despite being beaten by one that came back off the upright. 6

Coufal: Few defensive concerns and always attempted to drive forward  when he had the chance 7

Dawson: Did  a reasonable job at the back on and afternoon of few Saints chances 6

Ogbonna: Always composed 6

Looked quality when he arrived as a sub

Cresswell: Did little wrong but like the rest failed to make a serious impact 6

Rice: Controlled midfield – always available. An impressive display in a poor game 7.5

Soueck: Couple of headers over the top from corners and free kicks – neat and tidy alongside the skipper 7

Bowen: Ran himself into the ground – was tricky and clever and our chief goal threat 9

Fornals: Pretty average performance following recent displays 5

Benrahma: Started well and faded before being subbed 5

Antonio: Worked hard but could never get on his top game  and two yellows – one sadly at the death – will see him out of the Man United  game 6+

Subs:

Vlasic: Really aggressive and a big attacking force – Benny boy will have to watch out. 7

Yarmolenko: On late: No rating
