Barthez - 7.5 - couldn't really do anything about the goal, a bit dodgy on a couple of crosses tho, no real saves to make
P.Neville - 7 - decent but nothing more, mediocre defensively and added nothing in attack
Blanc - 8.5 - usual class and style, MOM today
Wes - 7 - decent match, not really a bad one, generally played well but lost his man a couple of times which could've cost us
Micky - 7.5 - not a bad match by Micky, attacked well and defended decently too, but caught out of position a couple of times as well
Nicky - 7 - his worst match in a long time, not that he was that awful, but lost possession too often. Was outnumbered by the Bayer midfielders. Still won plenty of balls but his distribution wasn't good enough today.
Scholesy - 8 - thought he was our best midfielder on the day, put in some good challenges and was the only midfielder who tried to create something, especially in the first half. Wasn't as good in the second half tho.
Seba - 5 - I understand resting him for European matches, but why were we resting him today??
Ole - 7 - decent, no more, lucky goal, almost scored one more.
Giggsy - 7.5 - was all over the place, lost a lot of possession but really, who could blame him, he was all alone out there.
Ruud - 7 - worked hard all night but like Giggsy, was way too isolated, good penalty as usual tho. Missed a couple of chances at the beginning of the match.
