Camp – 7 – vocal, assertive, comfortable in leaving his line, quick and accurate in his distribution and eager to play short balls to defenders. Smith divides supporters like no other player, but if this is representative of his usual nature than I’m in Lee’s camp (groan).
Chambers – 5 – error prone, confidence in tatters, and positionally appalling. A League One footballer.
Wilson – 6.5 – a reasonably solid performance, but tough-tackling Wilson is the leader of a creaking defence that looks a division below the required standard.
Morgan – 6.5 – as with Wilson; no startling personal errors but even Ipswich’s cautious attacks left us looking fragile.
Bennett – 5 – solid and brave, as ever, but his use of the ball was woeful.
Anderson – 6.5 – covered a lot of ground and threatened regularly with his rapid dribbles and pervading runs. Unfortunately he conceded a stupid penalty that has cost us dearly.
Fletcher – 6.5 – does exactly what it says on the tin, nothing more or less.
Cohen – 6.5 – extremely busy, as ever, but not the creative drive we were looking for in our increasingly aimless attacks.
McCleary – 7 – faded with the game, as he did on Saturday, but he is full of confidence and beating players for fun.
Cole – 5 – a luxury that we cannot afford. The only way he could be less mobile is if he was in a chair.
Tyson – 6 – his pace is a threat, but he is not scoring goals and – frankly – that is all he is asked to do.
Subs:
Lynch – 5
McGugan – 7
Martin - 5
