5. DeAndre Yedlin - 6
A decent enough return to the side. Provided pace and an option down the right. Photo: Ian MacNicol
6. Isaac Hayden - 6
Full of energy, running and tackling but a little more care needed in possession. Photo: Ian MacNicol
7. Jonjo Shelvey - 6
Nowhere near his influential best. A real struggle in the first half, better in the second. Photo: Alex Livesey
8. Miguel Almiron - 7
If he could finish would have double figures by now. Don't let his poor record in front of goal mask an all-action display. Photo: Ian MacNicol
