A show of just how much a team performance it was is in the fact that only two subs and two players who went off injured early on failed to get any votes. Mosts votes went to the defence as Simonsen picked up 2.9% whilst the trio of midfielders all received 4.4% of the votes each.
All 5 defenders are in the top six, with just Dave Kitson, who polled 10.3%, for company. The top 3 were as follows:
2=) Wilkinson - 11.8% - Full back who had a fantastic game. So often he was left with both left sided players and manfully kept them at bay until help arrived. Continues to improve
2=) Huth - 11.8% - No frills full debut for the big German. Made everything look so simple, he has give the manager a real headache for this weekend.
1) A.D. Faye - 29.4% - Back to his supreme best. Captains display, clever finish for goal and was always there. Nothing any defender could have done with Drogba's goal and faultless after that.
