Western Sydney Wanderers

Vedran Janjetovic 6 – unlike his counterpart in blue he wasn’t at fault for any goals tonight but he was beaten thrice.  

Keanu Baccus 5.5 – hopefully he learns a lot about being a fullback from Llorente because at the moment Western Sydney are a bit lopsided. Baccus doesn’t get forward as well and this leaves the Wanderers winger on that side rather isolated at times.

Michael Thwaite 6 – He said in his pregame interview that his match up against Matt Simon was like two giraffes in the gym. He deserves a post-playing career gig on Foxsports for that description alone.

Brendan Hamill 6 – the Western Sydney centre halves really did their jobs well tonight. They didn’t give Bobo and Simon many chances and that’s their job. Stopping Mierzejewski and Ninkovic is up to the midfielders but too often we see centre halves having to break the line to close them down. Hamill tried so hard not to go to Ninkovic for the third goal but the Serb just came too far.

Raul Llorente 7 – played very well tonight, ran hard, got forward into some very dangerous positions. Should have done better with his chance on goal in the second half.  

Roly Bonevacia 5 – against Sydney he really needed to have a top game defensively. He did not. Gombau really needs to push him higher up the park and find another player for this role, or another formation against that particular team.

Steven Lustica 6.5 – he put in a good shift tonight. Even had a couple of chances. He was the best player in the Wanderers’ midfield.
