Howard - Did well when called upon. Needs to talk to the defence more I feel. Can't be blamed for their goal as it did look like Jags was going to clear it.
Neville - Didn't do much right but didn't do much wrong either. A bit of a nothing performance from him tbh.
Hibbert - Not much to say about his performance because he didn't see much of the ball, but he made a couple of good defensive tackles.
Jags - Did everything he had to do, not much more to say.
Lescott - Same as Jags. The defence weren't really tested
Valente - I really dislike Valente but I thought he was very good last night
Arteta - I thought he was piss poor in the first half, but once the team came alive in the second half he was involved in everything. He also seems to like having Pienaar in the team to take the pressure of him. Very lucky goal and I doubt he'll get to keep it.
Cahill - I thought he looked decent in the half he played, he actually went looking for the ball unlike the majority of our team in the first half. Nice flick by Timmy for Yak's first goal too.
Carsley - Looked a lot better than he has done for the past month. Mopped up a lot of Brann's play infront of our defence.
Manny - Gave the ball away quite a bit again. I just think he's trying too hard atm, when he keeps it simple it works. So, keep it simple Manny and you'll be fine.
Pienaar - Looked very sluggish in the first half, which is to be expected tbh. In the second half he was involved in everything and played a large part in the demolition.
Yak - Played excellently once again, he came deep when it was necessary and took his goals superbly. My favourite goal was his second when that turn took two of their defenders out and then he fooled the keeper with the shot. QUALITY. I'm so glad I'm being proved right about us signing him.
AJ - Ran himself ragged as usual but this time he got rewarded for his efforts and on another day he would also have had a hat-trick. His second goal was fucking excellent and had a lot of power behind it. My MOTM. Keep it up AJ.
