I'm totally owning the threads today. hehe

Joe. 6 yawn. Not troubled too much. Nothing he could do about the goal.

Kolo. 6. Good captains effort. Looks a better captain than last season funnily enough.

Vinnie. 8 Another outstanding performance with some excellent clearances.

Jerome. 6. Decent first half but faded.

Zabs. 6. Not troubled too much to make an impact and didn't get forward too often.

Gazbaz. 6. Frustrates the crap out of me. Good and bad in equal measures.

Yaya. 9. Scores a brace and showed everything that justifies his wage. His best match for us yet.

Nige. 6. Solid. Nuff said.

Jo. 7. Did the little things really well. We always seem to win when he plays.

Silva. 7. Beautiful assist for AJ's goal. Got no favours from the ref but milked a wee bit too much.

Balo. 6. Not today. Not terrible but not today.

AJ. 6. Nice run for the goal. Not much else.

Superjaw. 6. The jaw was solid.

We're going to have to rename you "Quickdraw"

sorry but you give silva a SEVEN, MAN OF THE MATCH 1ST HALF ANYWAY

Sorry Dazby, but to mark de Jong the same as balotelli is laughable.

Balotelli deserves a 3 at best, de Jong was top notch yet again and deserves an 8 or 9.

Think you've been a bit harsh on kolo, zabaleta and silva as well.
