Sol 6 and Damour 7?!?
Are you pissed?!?
Damour was shocking when he come on. Round around like a headless chicken and constantly losing possession putting us under unnecessary pressure.
Bamba on the other hand had a battle with Gallagher, who is huge, all afternoon and got the upper hand imo.
I agree. I thought Bamba was one of our better players. Not sure what happened in the second half, when Brum missed that golden chance right in front of the goal. Looked like some combination of Bamba, Manga and Peltier were having a right ding-dong as the play moved upfield.
That's good I think. Avoids complacency setting in by being feked off when mistakes are made.Quote:

Bamba looked shaky and we were a bit chaotic at the back in the second half, didn't feel I could give him more than 6 when we conceded two and should have had another. He also gave away the penalty, rightly or wrongly.
Etheridge - 8
Bennett - 6
Manga - 7
Bamba - 7
Peltier - 7
Grujic - 8
Paterson - 6
NML - 6
Bryson - 5
Hoillett - 8 (could have been more)
Zahore - 7
Damour - 5
Morrison - 5
Halford - 6
I think that Damour lacked quality on the ball and made some poor decisions, although, in his defence, when he received the ball he didn't really have many options, same as grujic, Bryson doesn't seem to put himself in positions where he receives the ball, he cleans up. Damour wasn't great, but he didn't hide. I like that in a player.Quote:

I thought Bryson was better than that. Scored a goal and was really making things tick in the midfield until he had to come off. Thought Mendez was excellent but Grujic was my man of the match.Quote:

If anyone was a standout player, for me it was Gallagher. Not pretty but flipping hell a handful especially with Jota (who I also liked) was flinging in dangerous crosses
Wasn't Bamba actually, apologies.Quote:

Etheridge - 8 that one save was amazingQuote:

Peltier - 6 decent
Grujic - 7.5 good apart from a couple of wayward passes
Paterson - 6 lost too many 50/50s and headers but can’t fault commitment
NML - 6.5 tried but not effective enough. Needs to use physicality more
Bryson - 5.5
Hoillett - 8 been unbelievable last few weeks
Zohore - 7 didn’t get the service really
