Jenkinson: Another quality performance and ensured that Baines didn’t cause his normal havoc 7
Collins: Awesome performance at the back and my man of the match. Got forward to provide a real aerial threat 9
Tomkins: Provided the knock down for CC’s goal and top performance all round 8
Cresswell: Running out of words to describe this guy’s regular top perfomances, Excellent again 8
Song: Off after an hour as as expected, not fully match fit but some lovely stuff at times while he was around 7
Noble: Generally good performance but one notable error that needed a breathtaking piece of help out defending from Collins 7
Downing: Always busy but missed a key spot kick which put the entire outcome in the balance 7
Jarvis: Inneffective throughout – clearly not up to match speed yet 5
Valencia: Fine goal and slowly getting it together with Carroll. Exciting runs at speed. Good display 7
Carroll: The man was everywhere causing mayem everywhere. Excellent 8
Subs: Amalfitano: Exciting performance 7
Cole: Well done Carlton and thanks – real poacher’s goal 7
Nolan: Possibly his best performance of the season. Great passing and one fine effort which failed to find the net 7
