Lawrence Vigouroux 8

Made some really smart stops to keep his former employers at bay, including a superb one-handed save to deny Egan-Riley.

Josh Key 8 - STAR MAN

Looked a real threat down the right for much of the afternoon. Arguably Swansea's best attacking outlet.

Ben Cabango 7

Some really important defensive contributions once again. Mopped up well and made a couple of good tackles.

Harry Darling 7

Similarly solid at the back. Another typically strong outing.

Josh Tymon 6

Got caught out a couple of times defensively, but made some fairly promising attacking contributions.

Goncalo Franco 7

A steely presence in the middle. Was dispossessed a couple of times, but was still a useful creative outlet.

Matt Grimes (c) 6

A fairly decent outing up until the penalty. He'll feel it was harsh, mind.

Myles Peart-Harris 6

Didn't really do an awful lot wrong, but not anywhere near as influential as previous outings. Did tee up Bianchini for a really good chance late on.

Joe Allen 5

Should have done a little better with the chances that came his way. Was otherwise reasonably solid, but quite quiet. Subbed.

Ronald 5

Worked hard for much of the game, but just couldn't find that spark needed in the final third. Subbed.

Zan Vipotnik 5

Looked fairly good on the occasions he managed to get into the game, but was largely feeding off scraps for much of the afternoon. Subbed.

Subs:

Liam Cullen (on for Allen 62) - Unlucky not to score. Denied by Esteve on the line - 7

Florian Bianchini (on for Vipotnik 62) - Missed a glorious chance to score after coming on - 5

Kyle Naughton (on for Peart-Harris 78) - A quiet cameo - 5

Cyrus Christie (on for Ronald 85) - A couple of crosses aside, largely as above - 5
