The Swansea City player ratings as attacking duo impress again but several flatter to deceive at Millwall (original) (raw)
Here's how the Swansea players rated in the 1-1 draw with Millwall at The Den
FREDDIE WOODMAN 6
Helpless with the opening goal and was almost caught out by Jed Wallace not long after. Decent from set pieces though.
KYLE NAUGHTON 6
On his first post-lockdown start, Naughton looked decent in both defence and attack. Gave Andre Ayew support and was a calming influence on the right.
BEN CABANGO 5
A few nervy passes didn't help Swansea make their way out from the back. To his credit, the Welshman was defensively sound.
BEN WILMOT 6
Unfortunate with the opening goal after making a fine block. Looked threatening in the opposition box too. In the wars at times, and had to be subbed late on.
JAKE BIDWELL 5
Unable to get forward as much as he'd have liked and caught out of position for Millwall's opener, although through no fault of his own. Got on the ball more in the second half.
GEORGE BYERS 5
Making his first start since recovering from an ankle injury, the midfielder tried to play some riskier passes, but to no avail. Needs minutes under his belt.
MATT GRIMES 5
Lost possession in the buildup to Mason Bennett's goal. That didn't prevent him from getting on the ball. But Swansea needed more from the skipper.
ANDRE AYEW 6 - Star Man
Didn't get much joy high up the pitch, but his defensive work rate was hugely impressive. Dragged his team mates through some tougher periods.
CONOR GALLAGHER 6
Got into some dangerous positions and had a shot blocked in the opening half. Won the free-kick for the equaliser.
YAN DHANDA 5
Decent effort with a free-kick early on, but looked a little rusty at times, which is understandable given his lack of game time and his position on the pitch. Subbed.
RHIAN BREWSTER 6
Spurned a glorious chance to score just minutes after Swansea went behind. Worked hard to keep Millwall's backline busy, and his free-kick led to the equaliser. Lively second half.
Subs
Bersant Celina (for Dhanda) - Involved in Swansea's best attacks after coming on. Impressive half an hour. 6
Marc Guehi (for Wilmot) - Helped see out the game. N/A
