I think the Norwich paper ratings are a little miserly, which reflects the parochial concerns of a local paper (although their summary of how everyone played is pretty accurate). On the 'who scored' ratings, 8 of our starting eleven got 7.6 or higher, which I think is a better reflection of the game. I hadn't seen whoscored.com before this, but it looks like a site worth revisiting.

Cheers Captain. I'll take a look. I think that 4 or 5 players should have got 8.

As you say about the local paper Captain. The whoscored.com is definitely interesting.

The accuracy of our passing in midfield stands out, as does shots on target - Petric's stats are amazing. If I've got a criticism it's the weightings they apply to get the final rating. For example, good though he was I don't think any of us had Duff as MOTM and they don't seem take assists/creating chances into account - Diarra had 3 to Dembele's 0.

As stats go however, jolly good indicator.
 
This is excellent.

Even more encouraging - just over 40% of total attempted passes were completed passes in the attacking half of the pitch.

Amazingly, between them for the whole game, Dembele and Diarra managed 2 tackles- but were involved in plenty of 'duel's, Ruiz made 2 and had 5 duels

Haangeland made no tackles, but won 3 aerial duels.
