MotM v Sunderland

Mark Davies, despite only playing 45 minutes.

Cahill comes 2nd for me.

Cahill

Jlloyd. If his left foot skill level could match his effort he'd be a decent left back.

I think Mark davies, Cahill and Steinson seemed to have a decent game for once.

Over 90 mins, Cahill by a country mile. Over the last 45mins M Davies because he changed the game when he came on and we created more chances with him around. So went for MD because he changed the game and looks like a real footballer compared with, well you know what I mean.

Close one between Cahill, McCann and Muamba.

Went for Cahill.

Cahill for me. The only player who looked comftable on the ball.

Cahill the only candidate, in my opinion.

A long way behind, steinsson had his second encouraging game on the run.

Davies (M) started the second half brightly, and, understandably, faded badly.

Cohen returned to headless-chicken-with-studs mode as if to the manner born.

Mediocrity at best for the rest.

Sunderland.

Cahill for me. Again. My player of the season, even above the pillar that is Davo. Also, Mark Davies should have gone, given precedent.

Gary Cahill for me with honourable mention to Mark Davies for the way the game changed when he came on.

I must've watched a different Mark davies. He came on, had a decent 5-10 mins, then went missing until the last 5-10 mins.

Indeed.

Indeed, it's obvious that he's got more quality than the rest of our midfield, but he didn't really show it yesterday.

Cahill for me, closely followed by Steinsson.

Can't believe McCann isn't getting the credit he deserves in this thread. I know Mark Davies coming on changed it but had it not been for McCann we could quite easily lost this fixture. I think that tackle alone was worth the point.

McCann was decent in parts, but he (like Fabrice) suffers from following "Bernard Mendy's Third Law of footballing", which states.....

"For every good bit of play there shall be an equal an opposite shit bit of play".

Thus, I find it hard to ever give him the credit he occaisonally deserves. World class tackles are followed by minutes of just twatting the ball about to no-one.
