Hide AdHumphreys: Played on the right of a three-man central defence. Came off at the interval as Millers changed shape. 5


Raggett: Hard game to return for. 5
McCart: Troubled by Blues movement in first half and wasn’t alone at the back. 5
James: Could not get forward as he can, with the dangerous Willumsson down his side. 5
Tiehi: Hard going in the middle with Iwata and Paik running fair parts of the game. 5
Odoffin: Good work rate, but no control and guile. 5
