Gomes (6) – Was nowhere for the goal. Somehow ended up collapsed in the opposite corner to where Doyle’s snuck in.
Corluka (6) – As with all the back four, defended well apart from one crucial moment.
Assou-Ekotto (6) – Was given the freedom of the left hand side but made only average use of it
Dawson (6) – Gave his all as ever, won’t be happy at being outjumped by Doyle for the goal
Bassong (7) – A good composed game. Brought the ball forward well a couple of times
Lennon (5) – Well marshalled by the Wolves defence, found it difficult to make space
Huddlestone (7) – Appeared our best chance of a goal for long periods
Palacios (6) – Good player that he is, more craft was probably required in this game than he naturally possesses
Kranjcar (6) – Skilful, willing and creative but like Lennon and Defoe rarely found enough space to cause any damage.
Keane (5) – Another poor game. First touch let him down time and again.
Defoe (5) – Never found any room, always had a Wolf up his arse.
