Fantastic game, fantastic performance, fantastic support - all this despite an extremely inconsistent referee and some bizarre substitutions from Mr. Grant. First he brings on Sidwell, inviting the pressure leading to them scoring, and then he takes off a striker (albeit a bad one) for a right-back - very bizarre. He'll say it paid off, I think we managed to win the game despite it. I agree with the above that Mikel must have been sent off by reputation rather than tackle. Not seen the tackle myself, was looking away at the time, but the way that cunt Neville was rolling around the pitch half the game I doubt it could have been a bad tackle. I knew we could win it though, we've won many games before after going a man down. I'm just glad the players managed to do it despite Grant's poor substitutions. Hilario: 6 - At fault for the goal, that was awful, never really fills you with confidence when a cross is played in. Made a few good saves though to redeem himself. Belletti: 9 - Fantastic Bridge: 8 - Great performance from Bridgey Carvalho: 9 - We look a million times better with Riccy back Alex: 7 - Thought he had a pretty good game too Mikel: 8 - Very good performance, good news is we don't lose him for any more games than we thought we would Ballack: 8 - Another good performance from the German SWP: 9 - Scored a great goal, forced another, showed fantastic drive, great performance J. Cole: 7 - Was part of a team that played well, but didn't do an awful lot that I remember Malouda: 7 - Same as Joe Pizarro: 6 - Not good enough. Subs: Sidwell: 6 - Not good enough, his presence to the game only made us invite pressure on Ferreira: 7 - Provided another forward option although it was bizarre to bring him on for a forward Ben Haim: can't really comment, too short a time.
