How they rated

KYLE NAUGHTON

Looked determined to deliver better from the right and was more involved with the overlap but still slow to react well enough.

FEDERICO FERNANDEZ (CAPT)

Had already looked erratic before inexplicable duck for opener , affecting him further as passes were forced.

ALFIE MAWSON

Brushed aside shockingly easily by Murray in moments that could have made things even worse. Not anywhere near standards he has set.

SAM CLUCAS

Looked uncomfortable in a flat four. Didn’t stop cross for Murray’s goal and failed to show any quality on front foot. With Carroll, bore brunt of fan frustration.

TOM CARROLL

Tried to get involved but looked shot of confidence. To his credit, tried more than most to make things happen but didn’t come off.

KI SUNG-YUENG

Big step back from the more authoritative displays of late, sitting too deep to have any and still allowing Brighton to play through. Horrendous set-piece at times.

LEROY FER

Managed a few drives forward and some threat but error-ridden and sluggish. Not good enough.

NATHAN DYER

Brave enough to get on the ball and try and spark something and at least had heart to show fight, Not enough though.

TAMMY ABRAHAM

Kept going with woeful service but couldn’t make more of the very few chances that came his way. Needed to hold up better but no support.

JORDAN AYEW

A waste of a shirt and when he did get involved displayed a horrendous touch. Dreadful.
