Ratings: How Huddersfield Town players fared against Peterborough United

HERE are the Huddersfield Town player ratings from Friday night's Championship home game against Peterborough United at the John Smith's Stadium

Nicholls: Not really exerted and had a very quiet, routine evening. 7

Turton: Almost scored a rare goal, with a deflected shot cracking the bar in the first half and headed just over in the second half. A real no-fuss team player. 7

Pearson: Forced to bring down Szmodics for a dangerous free-kick in first half. But it was a rare scare. Puts his body on line and enjoys defending. In control. 7

Lees: In the wars in the previous home game, Goalscoring glory by way of two smart headers here. Such a reassuring presence and outstanding summer signing. 9

Toffolo: Bombed forward well and linked adeptly with Holmes against a Posh side who were poor defensively. Heartening display - with Toffolo discovering his mojo. Assist for the third. 8

Russell: Some nice footwork and drive. Was sloppy to concede a dangerous free-kick chance for Posh. But mostly good. 7

Sinani: Cast side some recent quiet form in the best way possible. Fine opener and an assist for Lees. 8

O’Brien: A quality operator at this level and made it look easy at times. No wonder he was name-checked beforehand by Grant McCann. Little injury scare before break, but thankfully ok. 8

Thomas: Posed his trademark danger and was a strong outlet. Again. Did miss a good chance early in the second half. 7

Ward: A night for graft rather than goals for Ward. But he is one of the best of his type in the division. 7
