How we rated the Irons at Burnley
Hugh hands out his marks
Roberto: Ok, I’m about to be howled out of the gaff but this wasn’t all about his mistakes. The geezer was under so much pressure from some horrendous defending that he had no chance. He punched a corner in yes but he also made several top saves. So in fairness I’ll give him four rating than the zero many might expect 4
Fredericks: Struggled like the rest of the back four. No real impact when he did try to get forward 3
Diop: Nightmare really. Barnes and Wood were all too much for him 3
Cresswell: Did fine at front and back – with Snoddy the best of the lot 6
Noble: Off early with an ankle problem No rating
Rice: Just an average day for the defensive midfielder. His England spot could be in doubt 4
Snodgrass: Anything that was worthwhile offensively came from Snoddy – another high energy and tenacious effort 7
Fornals: Yeah ok – I think he was out there 2
Anderson: Much promise going forward – no end product 4
Haller: Gives the impression of of a man realising he’s in the wrong place at the wrong time 3
Subs:
Yarmolenko: No real impact after replacing Noble 3
Lanzini: Looks like he will be out for a long while with shoulder problem – not much show before that 3
Ajeti: One very strong run at the end as we pressed shows there may be more to him than we imagined 3
