Burchill 84
| Tony Roberts:- A couple of excellent blocks in the first half but sadly will have this performance remembered for the late mistake that lead to the goal. 6
Nurse:- Looked horrifically out of his depth in the first half, struggling to cope with his positional duties. Much improved after the break, it was his substitution that cost us a late goal. 6
Okuonghae:- Struggled to cope all afternoon with the physical attributes of Broughton but stuck to his task. Seems to have worked on his distribution, not every pass is a clearance. 6
Uddin:- Better from the skipper, did his best to try and stifle the aerial ability of Broughton but struggled against the movement on the deck. 6
Griffiths:- Usual from Scott, appeared to be more of an outlet than in recent games. 6
Saunders:- Works hard and its noticeable in his game that he doesn't just go for the outrageous ball all the time anymore. Proving a marked man going forward, something for other teams to worry about. 7
Taiwo:- Almost played like another centre half, far too deep to influence the game. It also allowed Rotherham a massive amount of space in the first half and left the forwards isolated. 6
Gain:- Same as above but you expect Gainy to be the holding player. Put in his shift, always looks for the intelligent ball but bizarrely switched to right back after Nursey's injury. Wont happen again. 7
Graham:- Improved on previous weeks and should have scored with a first half header. Still doesn't seem to really want possession of the football and lacks zip. 6
Benson:- Looked lively throughout and scored a terrific goal on the break. 7
Strevens:- Subdued again, asked to sit in midfield for big chunks of the game as Gain and Taiwo sat deeper and deeper. Workrate cant be questioned though. 6
SUBS
Southam:- no time to impress, should have gone straight into right back.
Ritchie:- Looked quick and direct. Need another look from the start!
