Hughie hands out his marks
Fabianski: Two or three top saves, saved the softest of pens and did nothing wrong all afternoon 7
Coufal: Was a bit too hasty when trying to cross but did well defensively 6
Johnson: Did really well with some tremendous blocks – very good game 8
Dawson: How do you mark a guy whop had a great game until the last five minutes when he gave away a pen and was red carded GIVE HIM YOUR OWN MARK.
Cresswell: Less than average afternoon front and back 5
Masuaku: Rarely saw the ball but a couple of penetrating run and defended a couple of dangerous situations 6
Noble: Sime neat passing and did little wrong in general 7
Soucek: Some good defending and got forward to make things happen now and again 7
Fornals Always busy and available for out balls – decent 7
Benrahma: Taken off eventually thank heavens . Near solo run on goal… failed, easy ball to man on goal… failed to make it… trapped defensively on occasions. Nothing positive in his game at all Poor 3
Yarmolenko: I’m not his biggest fan by a distance but fair play to him. Linked the play well and always looked threatening 7
Subs
Rice: Very subdued 5
Bowen and Lanzini: virtually anonymous 4 apiece
Agree Hugh Benrahma was clueless and was even outpaced by Silva. Masuaku was caught in possession several times again, won no tackles and mostly out of position. I believe Cress plays worse with him around too. Honestly those two must go for next season IMO.
If you read my comments u will know why
I know football is about opinions but this is ridiculous. How you can give Benrahma a 3 yet you give Mr Offside ALL THE TIME Yarmolenko a 7.
