Very good result, they didn't have a sniff all game. A very good team performance.
Davis 7 - Didn't have much to do all game, but took the crosses coming into his area very well and some good throwing too, even if his distribution is still a wee bit dodgy.
Butterfield 6 - Decent enough, but still gets beaten for pace every time by any winger he comes up against. Linked up well with Puncheon though.
Harding 8 - Very solid, made some good (unspotted) runs down the left flank and very commanding defensively. Worked hard all game.
Fonte 7 - Solid again, although didn't win many headers today and he does tend to have his arms all over anyone he marks - which on another day could have given B'mouth a fair few freekicks in good areas.
Seaborne 6 - Good in the air, made some good short passes, but he still makes me slightly nervous. He seemed to be on a different planet to Kelvin and the rest of the defence at times, needs to get his head in the game.
Puncheon 7 - Did well. I'm not his biggest fan, but he linked up very well with the defence and midfield and worked hard. Just needs to learn to beat his man and put in a cross and he could be very useful.
Lallana 8 - Excellent performance, we've really missed him. Worked hard and created chances right from the very start, gave us a little more energy and fizz up front. Tired towards the end.
Schneiderlin 7 - Worked hard but was quite anonymous at times. Harried the B'mouth midfielders a lot and made some good passes.
Hammond 8 - Best performance from him in a long time imo. Worked very hard, was involved creatively a lot and won the ball at important times. A captain's performance.
Lambert 5 - Pretty much ineffective up front. Nothing came off for him today, except the two penalties. He's just not playing like he was last year, it's a complete mystery. Maybe the 2 goals will give him a boost for next saturday.
Barnard 9 (MOTM) - My Man of the Match. Incredibly industrious, always making runs, won some vital freekicks and deserved at least one goal. If Rickie can get going with his form, these two will be absolutely lethal again.
Subs:
Chamberlain 6 - Pretty much anonymous, showed some good touches and skill though. Quite Lallana-esque, but with more pace imo.
Guly 5 - Bit of a passenger, but he's not really a striker. Puzzling decision to take both strikers off and put two midfielders on, but in Adkins we trust!
Chaplow 6 - Got stuck in a lot, obviously eager to impress. Not sure he deserved a yellow, it was a 50/50 ball and those happen every game.
