Tough one really - Kuyt did well, as did Sissoko, Gerrard Alonso and Garcia.
Think our problems came from the back, it really is annoying me at how long Finnan takes to give a pass and when it does it's usually back to Carra.
Carra was fairly quiet, but didn't have much to do. Same for Hyypia, but it got up field a few times, and Riise was fairly quiet, first time I think we saw him was when he got the headbutt. Backs up my comment after the Villa game that we don't seem to build up from the back, and that's why I'd like to see Agger, but I wouldn't say Hyypia is playing poorly.
Also Crouch was very quiet today, held the ball up at times, but fairly anonymous in the final third. Might have been a good match for Bellamy to play in.
