St. Brynjar Pretty poor game. Huddersfield looked lively, Nahki wells showing what an actual striker looks like.
McCarthy - 8 - One definite great save, didn't see if the one that hit the post got a touch or not. Looked a little rattled at times
Gunter - 6 - Does a hell of a defensive job cleaning up for the centre backs. Tried to over complicate it a bit.
Morrison - 3 - Very poor, rushed back too quickly. Dreadful passing, very complacent, constantly beaten by the forwards.
Pearce - 6 - Powerful presence, didn't do a great deal wrong.
Obita - 5 - Couple of mazy runs but indecisive and naive at times.
McAnuff - 6 - Not his best game by a long stretch and went missing a bit in the second but his work rate in the first was exceptional. Extra point for winning the penalty.
Hector - 6 - Looked confident and passed well. Would have loved his first half strike to have gone in.
Williams - 5 - Not his usual terrier-like self.
McCleary - 5/6 - Didn't get involved much at all, but looked sharp when he did.
HRK - 4 - Poor. Tough game but very ineffectual.
Pog - 4 - See above.
Drenthe - 4 - No influence whatsoever.
Alf - 5 - Barely noticed him
Akpan - N/A - not long enough to make a mark.
I'd be tempted to play Hector alongside Pearce next game, with Guthrie and Akpan/Williams in CM. Le Fondre or Blackman to start.
so someone you barely noticed gets 5 points, 1 more than our goal scorer? strange
