Lloris - 6.5. Hardly any saves to make, could do nothing about the goal, but great presence, couple of bits of sweeper keeping most notably right at the death - awesome concentration.
Naughton - 6. Overall solid... some lovely crossfield passes (including one pearler to Lennon)... but a few shaky moments. Unbalances the team, as he's not a LB!!
Dawson - 7. Solid as fudge.
Caulker - 7. Same as.
Walker - 6. Same as Naughton.
Bale - 9.5. Magnificent for a lot of the game, if not all of it (IMO), would have got a 10 if he'd got the hattrick.
Parker - 6. Overall, solid, was really good defensively. I'm undecided whether I'm happy with him playing forward balls/thinking he can create, though, because he's extremely average at it (gave it away too much today). He probably should stick to 5 yard passes..
Dembele - 6. Not Mousa's best game. Good workrate! Was in the wars and won some, lost some. Didn't get on the ball much, decision-making was erratic, didn't dominate this game at all.
Lennon - 7. Usual baseline level from Azza - immense workrate, was threatening at times with some superb runs, drove us forward at times (completely missed by the 'pundits' who juist focused solely on Bale)... was lacking a goal threat today though, which is quite often the difference between him & Bale.
Holtby - 7. Bright first half, lots of signs as to what he's going to bring (excellent passing, touch of creativity, good workrate), seemed to tire and fade in second half.
Dempsey - 6.5. Superb workrate, but flits in & out of games. Runs into dead ends Parker style quite often when on the ball... does shoot/is a threat, but arguably shoots too much. At times linked well with our other attacking players, but we need better/someone who fits into this system better.
