Murphy - 6 - Should have dealt with the final goal.
Keogh - 4 - Struggled.
Cameron - 6 - Solid-ish game, made plenty of well-timed challenges, let down by poor performances around him.
McPake - 4 - All over the place, over-comitted for the first goal, mis-timed jumps and generally looked like gifting goals all game.
Christie - 7 - One of our best players. Real threat goign forward, even on his wrong side.
Clingan - 5 - The game passed him by in the first half, we didn't have enough of the ball for him to influence the game. A few good set-piece deliveries, one leading to a goal.
Deegan - 3 - One of his worst games for us. I really rate him but today he didn't look like a footballer.
Thomas - 7 - Did well. Always looks composed and played one or two great passes to set-up attacks, especially during our period of dominance just after half-time.
McSheffrey - 4 - Largely anonymous, occasionally looked dangerous just after half-time but Christie offered more threat from full back than he did.
McDonald - 5 - Didn't really get involved. Tried hard, a couple of good runs, but struggled to get into the game. Being moved out wide didn't help him.
Jutkiewicz - 6 - Was a handful for their defence. Grabbed a goal, and used his strength fairly well, but not quite at the high level we've seen from him before.
Subs:
Bell - 7 - Seen a few people criticise him, but I thought he really influenced things when he came on. His introduction brought with it our best period of the match. No coincidence there as far as I'm concerned. Made a few tackles as well.
Platt - 7 - Again, made himself a nuisance and got himself a goal. He's a handful for defenders but I think off the bench is definitely where he works best. Let Cody give them a runaround and then Platt can batter them into submission.
Willis - 5 - Tempted to give 6, but he did struggle a little. I don't blame him for the fourth goal (Murphy called it) but he did give it away a few times and looked knackered fairly quickly. Even so, showed some good touches, a good throw and good work in the build up to the equaliser. Some promising signs for sure.
