Moss - 6 pretty decent game with that acrobatic save, I never saw the second goal as I'd flicked over briefly to watch Ivanovic...lose.
Muscat - 5 nothing to report on other than knocking the diver into siggy
Siggy - 6 looked ok but still ultimately gave away the penalty (in before siggy can do no wrong crew)
Lochhead - 4 carrying on his average form (although probably a bit better than he has been recently)
McKain - 5 not up to much
Daniel - 4 can't remember seeing him
Ferrante - 0 silky touches, pin-point passing and superb control were sorely lacking
Bertos - 7 looked pretty threatening when he ran at defenders
Costa - 6.5 similar to above but still gets muscled off the ball too easily
Smeltz - 5 missing in action as he has been the past few weeks, still managed to get a couple of solid defensive blocks in there (just a shame they were our shots)
Durante - 4 didn't see him as I was hurting after pulling my hair out seeing him come on for Costa when we were one nil down with ten to go and Costa was one of our only options for a goal
Kwasnik - 3 rubbish
Ricki Herbert - 1 for the moustache
4 man bench - 0 give the manager some options ffs

We deserved better out of that game. Some very good performances...
Moss 7 farewelled us with a typical very good showing
Manny 6 Some real gutsy tackles, didn't manage to damage Kevin though
Siggy 6 didn't give away the penalty, he was doing the job properly, Manny ran across his legs
Dodd 7.5 A strong performance, almost looped in a goal as well
Ferrante 5 a lot of good work, but several crap touches
McKain 6.5 Did well again
Daniel 5.5 Held the ball well without getting through many times, best dive of the season
Leo 6.5 Our best attacking creator, a shame two of his crosses were behind the strikers, but good defending kept him out
Costa 6.5 A terrier, gave the Tards a few scary moments
Smeltzy 5.5 Gained little space
Subs made little impact
Oi Oi Edgecumbe... lets have a clean sheet

I had the sickening realisation while I was in the shower that I had left Dodd out.
He was pretty decent, the best defender. I'll award him a 6.5

Agree with most of those. Manny did a lot of good things but he was responsible for the penalty unfortunately. Bit of a pity too because I think Siggy had Kemp covered.
I thought Daniel had a pretty decent match and maybe deserved a little better. Wasn't fantastic but his set pieces were better than Leo's and he crossed in some real quality balls.
Ferrante was pretty rubbish... not sure what has happened to him. Same goes for Smeltz.

Ryall also got as much of Daniel as Manny did of Kemp, so a bit unfortunate there.

I happy to agree with most of the player ratings apart from Smeltz who wasnt really in the game and would have given him a 4 his non passing when other players where open also would have marked him down....and I didnt get to Ferrante who was in my opinion the worst player on the pitch..aimless long balls..no real vision, has been on the slide for some weeks now. I did wonder if ricky would have maybe gone for a diamond midfield in the second half keeping mckain as the defensive midfielder and using kwasnick as the attacking option rather than the choices he made..still phoenix attacked well and deserved morew out of the game than they got

I know I'm almost sickeningly pro-Sigmund but a mere 6 for him? The guy was absolutely awesome last night, an effort typified by that last second block of Thompson's shot when it seemed certain he would score. For such a big man Sigmund's ability to recover and put in a tackle after he has seemingly been beaten is uncanny.
Another mark for Muscat too, please. And although I think Dodd had his best game of the season I'm knocking him down to 7 for that horrible backpass that Moss was forced to handle.

I agree with that. Sigmund was awesome. Not only did he dominate at the back, but he was probably our biggest threat up front as well.

It also looked like he was carrying a bit of an injury that he picked up early on in the game

Admittedly I was at the game and they didn't show a replay but it looked like Daniel ran into his leg instead of Ryall tripping him on purpose.
btw how was Kwasnik 'rubbish'? I thought he was decent when he came on.

From memory they only showed one replay of the incident, but looked pretty comparable in my eyes.
Both men going down too easily, and neither a foul in my eyes.

How can you give Kwasnik 3... and smeltz a 5?
Smeltz did nothing except hog the ball and stop our shots. And kwasnik came on and played decent.
As for the Penalty, I thought it was Manny running across but I'm not to worried.
Also I think the team deserves aleast one more mark each. They played at least a 7 on the whole.
