Howard-6-had nothing to do. Coleman-6-asleep most of the game and didn't get forward, when he did, well, those crosses are bad. Stones-7.5-solid, had ings quiet all game and did some great tackles. Jagielka-7.5-immense today, won his headers and didn't mess about. Baines-6-ive had enough, honestly, that corner? What was that? Then the other one, first man again, lost it all the time and can't cross to save a life, amongst our regulars, bar howard he's been our worst player this season. Mccarthy-7-solid, couple of shots but didn't see enough of the ball. Barry-8.5-incredible today, dare I say, phenominal? Did one bad pass mainly because he was falling over, calm on the ball and was solid. Lennon-7.5-frightening with his pace, maybe not so much second half but was boss again, worked hard and kept the ball well. Barkley-5-what was that penalty? So arrogant, greedy as he had THREE chances to put player through but shot, got the ball off mccarthy and tried to give it straight back when he has 4 players around him!? that's just stupid, no vision, kept losing it, not good enough, again. Mirallas-6-scored a goal and yep that's about it. Kone-6-now let me just give him credit for one thing, well, 2, he passed the ball better and worked hard but where are those powerful shots he had at wigan? Gone, it wasnt him not shooting well, it was him not shooting at all. Lukaku-6-thank god he's back, held it up well. Naismith-6-hiya naisy. Besic-6-YES!, glad to see him back on the pitch. They had 10 men and what did we do? Sit back of course!, boring game and the fans, well, no atmosphere at home, we were not very good, ah well, still got 3 points.

Reckon the full backs did better than your letting on Swan.

Baines was lively in the 2nd half, and Coleman very much so in the 1st. Would like the Set peices to be much better. Also, Barkley bar the pen played better than I've seen him play before.

Me too Devontoffeelad. I think Swan sees a different player to me. He has now had quite a few games at center forward and has yet to score a goal. Yes he has had terrible injuries and yes he does sort of hold the ball up quite well, but how many shots? How many assists? How many involvements in build up play? I thought he was crap and I still think he is pee poor overall. I said so when we signed him and said he was no better than much younger Anichebe who we sold to fund the purchase. At least Anichebe has scored a few goals and still has a sell on value. Kone is another useless wage taker who has brought zilch to this club. And I was exaggerating when I say zilch.
