Viktor Johansson: 7
The scoreline would have been even heavier without the contribution of the Swede who made several sharp saves.
Dexter Lembikisa: 4
Has to learn to defend better.
Grant Hall: 4
First game back after injury and it showed. Rusty and out of sorts.
Sean Morrison: 4
Never got to grips with the mobility of Liam Delap.

Hide AdHe tried, he never stopped running. But the touch wasn't there and his set-piece delivery was poor.
Christ Tiehi: 4
Anonymous. Didn't have anything like his usual influence.
Hakeem Odoffin: 4
The game passed him by.
Seb Revan: 4
Not much seen of him in either half of the pitch. Fading after showing a bit of promise earlier in his loan spell.
Jordan Hugill: 4Starved of service and did nothing with the scraps of possession he got.
Georgie Kelly: 4
Ditto Kelly.
The subs
Arvin Appiah (for Bramall 54): 4
Another loanee who flattered to deceive for a spell. Not the man for a backs-to-the wall effort on a cold Tuesday night away from home.
Tom Eaves (for Hugill 67): 4
Ineffective against his former club.
Jamie Lindsay (for Odoffin 67): 5
