Toon Players Rating vs Everton

Shay Given: 7 Did well to keep us in the game with some saves but didn't had much to do really.

Titus Bramble: 7 Had a good game without much trouble only for some wayward passes and sometimes panicked when opponents closed him down.

Jean-Alain Boumsong: 8 Getting better and better with each game. Looked solid with no problems whatsoever.

Celestine Babyaro: 6 Doesn't looked injured for once but i think we need a better left back than him.

Stephen Carr: 6 Did ok but had some prolems with kilbane runs but didn't have much joy attacking wise.

Darren Ambrose: 6 Cover the most of the ground but for nothing really. Hey, at least he's trying to prove something. Should have scored in the first half.

Charles N'Zogbia: 7 Did his best. I'm sure Robert could learn a thing or two.

James Milner: 7 Made some good runnings and combined well with kluivert and ameobi. But still lack the finishing and final ball.

Jermaine Jenas: 7 Did well on his return. Not a natural holding midfielder which sometimes leaves the back four exposed.

Patrick Kluivert: 6 Could and should have scored with his chances. Linked up well wiith the midfielders and with ameobi. But is this the end of his toon career?

Shola Ameobi: 7 Up until his sending off. Did well on the left wing. Closing down well and link play with kluivert was good. The swipe at Cahill was just too stupid.


Substitutes:

Peter Ramage: 6 Replaced the injured Carr and did well. Had some nervy moments but handled it well. He is not a right back at trade by the way.

Alan Shearer: 5 Hardly touch the ball or didn't at all. Couldn't do much with predicament. Bellamy might have been a more effective substitute. He ain't here at all.

Boss Man:

Graeme Souness: 7 A good plan with a solid formation. Everything was going according to plan until Barry Knight's intervention. His post match interview was kinda depressing. Didn't really know anything new to say. I think he just wants this season to end and start afresh. I do hope he has some kind of plan for renewed optimism next season.
