D_D's Player Ratings vs. Fulham

[D_D]

A great performance and result, full of positives. The ratings are as follows:

Grant 7- He had little to do, and couldn't do much about their goal, as he would have seen it very late. He came for crosses well and his distribution is ever-improving.

Christie 8- He was a raging bull down the right, marauding forward whenever he could. His crossing was decent, and his tackling was tenacious. He got beat a couple of times, but he's still learning. I expect McClaren to turn him into the total full-back package this season, much like he did with Forsyth, only Cyrus has better physical tools to work with.

Keogh 7- Bar a missed chance and a missed clearance, Keogh had a good game, often getting the better of Woodrow and McCormack. His passing and pace were highlights.

Buxton 8- He was typically solid, but it was his passing which which shone for me. His 50+ yard diagonal balls to Christie were particularly impressive. It's great to see Jake on top form again.

Forsyth 7- A very quiet game

Great to see your ratings DD I look forward to them every game, being so far away here in Canada.

Appreciate that Slimy! I'll keep em coming as long as people enjoy reading them.

My missus is over there at the minute, coincidentally.

Great read as always, agree with almost all of your ratings. Holding midfielder helps any 2 of Bryson , Hendrick or Hughes but we struggle when all 3 play goods as they are.

Christie or Ward MoM for me. Best I've seen award play for a while. The whole team looked sharper. Not many wayward passes like in the first couple of games. Eustace did a brilliant job. Right player in the right position. Simple.

[yamyamram]

Award should read Ward. Sorry!
