LORD KATSUMOTO – 6.5/10 – Lookout, sheep, it’s Daizen Daizenin’. Should have cut their throats himself but the blade of the samurai’s sword slipped past. Yet, once he got the spring on them they had no answer as he laid on the opener and didn’t relent in attempts to cause havoc thereafter.

YING – 5/10 – Not really going his way; fancy feet get tangled, cul-de-sac runs produce zip. But kudos for the mad-Korean-fluffy-wee-dug moment where his tenacity to win the ball back after wandering into trouble and losing it paid off for the opener. Still, Birmingyang is soon to depart these hooped realms and we’ll be sad to see him go… But not sad enough to realise three million bucks is some fool’s gold they deserve to be relieved of.

KENNY JOHNNY – 2/10 – Johnny Kenny. Johnny Kannae. Jesus Johnny H Khrist.
Scales was on 5 minutes & they scored. No sure wtf you’re talkin aboot tbh
Scales need tae stop thinkin he’s a creative attackin player & just focus on defendin. Use that big daft heid tae heider the baw & he’ll be nearly ok.
Still no gid enough tho!
Donovan is twice the player Ralston is, was or will ever be.
Seiously if ye cannae see that, you’re the one best tae sit at hame in yer bedroom on yer playstation as you obviously never kicked a baw in yer life!
