Adam Smith looked good so he gets an 8
defoe gets a 9

Sandro, Gallas and Friedel were highlights and Walker was our worst performer. Livermore deserves a mention for puttiing in a decent performance in a pressure game.
Four matches in a row that Sandro has a case for man of the match, brilliant performance from him once again
I think walker has a broken toe.
I know but people said this last weak but he was still able to blast 2 or 3 shots miles wide. And the mistakes he made were basic passes which unless he had a broken concentration too were just poor. The way he came out after half time makes you wonder what was the point. Was he just hobbling to show the fans he was injured? Why didnt he demand to be taken off before then if he couldnt play?
It's usually the other way around, that's why. The Management/Physio team can only do so much and they'll ask the player whether they feel they can play. They'll almost always take the players word for it. If the player lies, not much they can do. I would imagine today they asked Walker if he was fit to continue and Walker said he'd give it a go.
Thought it was a professional performance. Livermore looked out of his depth sadly, and we struggled to control the midfield at times with him there. Thought Smith looked nervous but did well keeping it simple. Kaboul needs to train with Nelsen regarding those long balls! Nelsen hit one down the line with his left peg that was exquisite!
All in all, a pleasing day where we looked comfortable despite a rejig due to injuries against a very tidy Fulham side.

I think everyone bar Friedel and Ade had very, very average games. Great pass from Rafa, but otherwise quiet.
Defoe was very lively when he came on. He was gobbing off on twitter JUST after the game about "if I play I will score" sort of stuff, but he hasn't been doing it much, has he ? Either way he was lively, he scored and closed the game and he deserves credit for singlehandedly sparking some life into events.

To be fair his goalscoring record in terms of goals/minute has been pretty excellent this season.
