I really think carruthers has looked lively. Very two footed

Disappointed with Gardner though - excellent free kick apart. He looks leaden footed and has just missed an absolutely unbelievable sitter. And I mean unbelievable!

So much raw potential but they can't bloody score.

Bannan looking very good. Gardner should have had two.

As an aside, Johnson reminds me of seedorf, he just drifts around effortlessly and seems to just pop up in the right place, think he's going to be a great player.

We are looking much better in this half generally though. Bannan and Carruthers look a cut above their midfield.

Agreed, like the look of Johnson too.

Yes, they've all got good quick feet, movement and touch.

Gardner looks a fair bit slower and seem quite unalert. Am I being harsh?

You just know Man Utd will get a penalty here to decide the game. It's the only way they'll beat us, they look toothless up front.

Hasn't had a good game. Not very influential compared to earlier in the season when he was bossing every match.

Maybe he's been told he's starting on Sunday and so is holding back a little?

For what little he's had to do tonight, Siegrist looks excellent.
