Most of what you say is spot on but I have to say I disagree re Dorsett. He made 4 or 5 last ditch blocks or tackles which most likely would have been goals otherwise. It was just a shame about the own goal which blotted the performance as it looked avoidable. But overall I thought he looked very promising.
He did, but then I think the last ditch tackles were often a result of not dealing with an initial situation.
Might be being a bit harsh, but Antonio was all over him in the air as well. But Antonio is a very good PL striker so no shame there
He definitely has attributes and he won't come up against the likes of Antonio very often. But just felt he was a fair way behind Holmes and TMc at the moment. But I believe he is very young still (18?) so plenty of time to get better
It was a very tough game for him to be involved in as they were cutting through us at will so he was constantly under pressure. I thought he coped pretty well. It was worrying seeing how easily they passed through us from central positions and found acres of space down our left flank.
Well yes - that was his side. How much of that was due to him, and how much due to the LB, or even the CMs difficult for me to say.
