Based on watching on Sky (only been to one game this season as most games are miles away for me and frankly I cant be arsed/have better things to do):
RCC 7 - Good under crosses and distribution was good. Made a couple of decent stops.
Lorentzson 7 - I really like the look of him. Very composed on the ball and rarely gave it away. Largely held his own defensively, perhaps looked like quicker players may get the better of him from time to time.
Martin 6 - Defended well, headed most things away. Odd poor pass.
Vincelot 5.5 - Good first half, though occasionally gave the ball away needlessly in our 3rd of the pitch. Dreadful attempted clearance for the 3rd.
Ricketts 4 - What else needs saying about the first goal? Inexcusable. Decision making was really poor and put us under pressure with some careless passes. A couple of good attempts on goal his only saving grace.
Bigi 6 - Settled into the first half well after nervous first 5/10. Tidy in possession when we were controlling the game. Looked a bit flustered when there was no obvious pass on and when holding onto the ball too long.
Fleck 7 - Clear daylight between him and the rest of our midfield in terms of ability. Technically excellent on the ball and passed it well in tight areas. I cannot fathom how some people can't see his talent - our best player and could easily be in the Championship.
Rose 6 - Industrious down the right in the first half, though it is clear he isn't a winger, more a wide midfielder when deployed there. Linked well with Murphy and Fortune.
Cole 6 - Good goal, gave the ball away a surprising amount for someone of his class though. Some neat turns and through balls but on that showing, I don't think we will miss him all that much on the pitch. Set piece delivery was also a bit off.
Murphy 6.5 - Great speed and energy to burn a couple of their players in the second half (once for the goal), but he couldn't finish his dinner. Must have had 5 shots at goal, could have had a hattrick. Needs to improve that side of his game.
Fortune 6 - Worked hard, unlucky not to score with clearance off the line. Hassled and harried Bostwick in the first half and made some really intelligent runs and layoffs. Frustrating that he often isn't in the box when the ball goes wide, so no option for Rose/Lorentzson to swing the ball in the box first half.
Subs:
Jones 6.5 - Impressed with his directness and speed. Clearly raw and has that youthful naivety about him (which isn't a bad thing sometimes as he was always willing to take on his man). Exciting prospect.
Henderson 5 - One or two good headers down but when he fell over after having a chance to go one-on-one summed it up for me. Not really sure we needed to bother signing him, be glad when he's gone in the summer.
Tudgay 6 - Not really on long enough but always been a favourite of mine since back end of last season. Intelligent footballer
