[Redders Right Foot 22]

interested in everyones ratings today for the players.

Ruddy - 7.5 did the work when he was required, sliced a few kicks out of bounds but overall very promising and looking to be getting back in form

Olsson - 8 - Thought he did a very good job today, stopped a ball on the goal-line that was huge.

Martin - 6.5 - made few mistakes but I felt he had a bit of an uninspired performance. really would like to see whitts come in.

Bassong + Benno - 9 - I want to see this as the starting pair each game. benno has great potential and bass is a leader on the pitch, and when in shape and in form is the best CB we have.

Howson - 7 - 8 if just going by the first half, but overall another great game today, pinging passes and always looking threatening. looking like he can grow into our best player

Fer - 7.5 - speaking of best player. Fer also had a great first half, and his tackling and interceptions helped us maintain the lead in the second

hoolahan - 6.5 - his play was good, but he was desperately lacking match fitness, looked a bit knackered (no fault of his own, I understand.) still has a part to play here.

Redmond -6.5- looked to be a little more active in helping the back line today. his passing was excellent but his shots are what let him down for me.

Elmander - 7 - his best premier league game in a Norwich shirt today. unlucky that he hit the post.

Hooper - 8 - two goals in 3 games. starting to look the part. if he wasn''t as composed as he was in the box he could of easily had his shocked blocked. great touch to let the defender go by and slotted it in calmly after that.

great first half performance by the lads today, but after HT they all seemed to be lacking a bit.

[GJP 79]

Ruddy - 6/7 - still a bit nervous in some situations, not taking control of stuff coming into the 6 yard box.

Martin - 6/7 - gave Palace a bit too much space at some points but generally did ok at the back and offered more than usual going forward.

Bennett - 6/7 - didn''t have a great deal to do, Bassong took control.

Bassong - 7/8 - got stronger and stronger as the game went on, particularly dominant in the second half and read everything.

Olsson - 7/8 - outstanding clearance on the line, numerous other blocks and energetic at all times. Quality investment.

Redmond - 7 - murdered the left-back. Some wayward end product but not many defenders will enjoy playing against him.

Howson - 8/9 - superb throughout, as usual. How many times do you see him in the right place to clear the danger? Class act.

Fer - 7 - good but not great, could be an argument to suggest he''s prone to fading out in the second half of games.

Hoolahan - 7/8 - was nice to watch a player always looking to make things happen. Tired in the second half but did the damage in the first.

Elmander - 6-7 - didn''t do too badly in the first half and unlucky not to score with a brilliant effort. Minimal impact after the break.

Hooper - 7-8 - very lively. Linked well and the moment when he took that ball down over his shoulder and then found Elmander behind him was superb. Get the ball in the danger zone and he will score, as shown today.
