Please, let’s not have a players rating thread. Give O’Shea a seven, and the rest can have three’s
Did you watch O'Shea for their fifth, he watched their player run 10 yards past him, pick up a ball from a throw in, so not offside, then wander at ease into our box to score.

Now that we have a left sided centre back in Esteve, I would love to see Beyer play alongside him in his accustomed position at right centre back. Why Beyer over O'Shea? The answer is simple for me....he's a better player.
