It was a disappointing start for David Moyes as the Irons went under 2-0 at Vicarage Road.
Here Niall McDonald gives his ratings on the players during the first 90 minutes of Moysie’s reign
Hart: Fine save in first half. Magnificent save on the hour. Could have done better for the 2nd? 5
Zabaleta: Some brief glimpses of his quality down the right in the first half 5
Reid: Important deflection from a Gray shot. Couldn’t get close enough to Richarlison for his goal 5
Ogbonna: Did well I thought. Came out on top after a good tussle with Gray 6
Cresswell: Better defensive positioning than against Liverpool. Several of his long balls upfield gave Carroll no chance 5
Noble: Couldn’t get forward himself and regularly found nobody ahead of him in passing range 5
Obiang: Nervy start, shoved by Gray before the first. Woeful passing from start to finish 3
Kouyate: Denied by Gomes before the break. Horrible miss on 51 mins. Would have been crucial goals 5
Arnautovic: Much improved effort before suffering a clearly painful arm injury 6
Carroll: All aggression and frustration. Drew blood after 6 seconds, winded another on 7 mins, booked not long after 4
Lanzini: Played out wide left and his creativity was sorely missed in the middle 5Subs
Sakho: No more involved than Carroll. Not sure he even touched the ball 3
Masuaku: Immediate impact cutting a cross back for Lanzini’s chance. Looked sharp amongst some tiring team mates 5
