KATIE – 7.5/10 MOTM – The controversial KT came through like a champ in that second 45; battered, harassed, rumbled – he battled and subdued the dangerous big beast breathing down his neck and clawing him out of the air. This stoical, understated professionalism is why he remains a prize asset, a perfect fit for a new system that requires versatile Centre Back/Full-Back and gritty influence to carry his mentally-fragile side through testing 90 minutes like these.

CALMAC – 5.5/10 – Who ate too much Xmas pud? There’s always one and, surprisingly, today it appeared to be Calmac. Did well to wrestle us back into the lead after that opening madness, but when you expected him to take control and close the game down after half-time, his slackness and impotence was concerning as we were far too open through the middle.

NEGAN – 7/10 – Well, just when you thought he might’ve been scrubbed from the team-sheet, back he comes with a couple of performances you can’t ignore. And that knack of scoring vital goals may yet keep him in a hooped jersey, particularly when it looks like he’s channelling the Ghost Of Rogic Past, pinging in the third. Faded sharply into the second period but his contribution was match-winning.

THE TERMINATOR – 6/10 – Well, Arne can tackle – rousing cheer for him scudding one of them for cheek with a well-executed slider. And though he sat deep today he still maintains a useful sharpness of wit, and has the balls to take the pens with Elvis ’68 Comeback Special coolness So… Keep going.
