CALMAC – 6.5/10 – Almost put them to bed single-handed in the first quarter, did our quarterback. Then he faded a bit and so did our intensity as adjustments had to be made for injury. But he did look more like the old Calmac, prompting and demanding ’til the death. Did really well not to slap the MIB for his cheek.

THE TERMINATOR – N/A – From 25 million to £24.80. Fingers crossed its not going to feel like we had
the winning lotto numbers but forgot to put the ticket on.

NYLON – 5.5/10 – Annoyingly, more involved in the game than usual. Which means he’s not scoring out of thin air. Needs to hone the David Copperfield act for Sunday.

LORD KATSUMOTO – 5.5/10 – What happen Daizen, San? Terrific start, touch perfect, full-back squealing after him like he was an early bus, delivery sharp and dangerous… Then Daizen faded with our tempo, anonymous against the second-half low block.

CARAVAN – 5/10 – A sitter, big mhan, a sitter… If that had gone in he’d probably have scored a hat-trick; as it was, I thought it played on his mind – he lost his timing and potency, finding it tough among their central defensive bruisers.

TUTANKHAMUN – 7.5/10 MOTM – I’ll give it to the Tunisian Mikey J – he’s certainly woken up since returning from the Afcon and appears rejuvenated from his weeks strung-out on that Moroccan hashish. Had his man on toast with some devilish wing-play which really deserved more than he got. Remained our man most likely. If he can add a bit of quality to the finishing flourish – and do it REGULARLY – we may have a player.
