Joel Robles – no protection 6

Luke Ayling – the effort was there but not much else 5

Liam Cooper – found wanting in his first appearance under Sam Alaardyce 4

Max Wober – a poor display from a player who had looked a good January signing, but whose confidence collapsed in the final weeks 4

Pascal Struijk – his weak defending at left-back two minutes in set the tone 3

Adam Forshaw – led what little fight there was 7

Robin Koch – got into a couple of good goalscoring positions only to put his headers off target 5

Weston McKennie – booed off and subjected to chants about his weight when he came off 4

Jack Harrison – scored, showed fight and was one of the few not booed by the fans 7

Rodrigo – minimal impact from a player carrying an injury 6

Substitutes:

Junior Firpo (for Wober, 59) – spoke volumes that Struijk was preferred at left-back but he came on 4

Brenden Aaronson (for Struijk, 59) – has had a disappointing debut season 4
