At last a win albeit against a team that doesn't travel very well. Suspect it will be very tough in Krakow and I expect us to exit the competition.
Gomes - 6
One good save and couldn't do anything about the goal.
Gunter - 6
Did nothing wrong. Surprised he was substituted,
Woodgate - 7
Solid as usual.
King - 5
One horrendous mistake that Woodgate finally cleared. Doesn't look like he'll ever be back to his old form.
Bale - 6
Good game
Lennon - 6
Unlucky to be substituted
Zokora - 4
At fault for the goal. Dire.
Jenas - 5
Great for first 20 minutes but then went missing.
Bentley - 4
Oh dear. He doesn't cross any better than Lennon.
Bent - 7
Tries. Scored one and should have had a second.
Dos Santos - 4
I hope those posters suggesting that he should play as a striker are now convinced of the error of their ways. One horrible miss when he didn't know whether to shoot or pass.
O'Hara - 7 MotM
Changed the game when he came on. His first touch was a glorious ball to Campbell. Tackles, passes, shoots, good positional sense - why isn't he starting? Will never be a great player because he lacks pace but IMO he's the best CM we have at present.
Campbell - 6
Great start. Wonderful cross for the goal. Should start with Bent.
