Player Ratings: Underwhelming Performances in Recent Match

**Senne Lammens (5/10):**
Questions will be raised regarding his inability to stop Dewsbury-Hall’s powerful shot. Overall, his responsibilities were limited as Everton sat back after taking the lead.

**Matthijs de Ligt (4/10):**
He faced challenges early on during Everton’s aggressive start. Rather than closing down Dewsbury-Hall, he retreated, displaying a cautious approach that failed to capitalize on the team’s numerical advantage.

**Leny Yoro (4/10):**
He could have been more proactive in preventing Dewsbury-Hall’s goal, managing to get a foot on the ball but ultimately allowing his opponent to regain possession and score. However, he defended well and played more aggressively in the second half.

**Luke Shaw (4/10):**
He struggled to contain Iliman Ndiaye during the early phases of the match. Although he attempted to support the attack in the second half, his crossing was subpar.

**Noussair Mazraoui (4/10):**
His impact as a right wing-back was minimal, with only one notable contribution before being substituted at halftime.

**Casemiro (4/10):**
His performance lacked intensity, failing to disrupt Everton’s plays and missing a decent opportunity on goal. He was taken off shortly after receiving a yellow card.

**Bruno Fernandes (3/10):**
This was a disappointing display by his usual standards. He made little effort to impede Dewsbury-Hall and struggled in his deeper role, displaying sloppy passing and failing to inspire the team when it mattered, notably firing a clear chance over the bar.

**Patrick Dorgu (4/10):**
He failed to apply sufficient pressure on Everton, and during a promising opportunity, he missed a critical chance by shooting wide. He was substituted for Dalot.

**Bryan Mbeumo (6/10):**
He demonstrated determination and brought some energy to the game, although he failed to convert a significant chance, shooting wide.

**Joshua Zirkzee (4/10):**
He had an opportunity to make an impression in the absence of Sesko but was largely ineffective, with his first shot coming only in the 80th minute. He did manage some late attempts but was denied by Pickford.

**Amad Diallo (6/10):**
He showcased moments of skill with good dribbling but was isolated in the attacking midfield role during the first half. He improved when moved to wing-back, combining better with Mbeumo.

**Mason Mount (6/10):**
He injected urgency into the team’s attacking efforts and was unfortunate not to score an equalizer.

**Kobbie Mainoo (5/10):**
This was another missed opportunity for him to impress Amorim, as he failed to make a significant impact.

**Diogo Dalot (5/10):**
He provided some balance to the team but rarely posed a threat to the opposition.

**Ruben Amorim (4/10):**
The decision to deploy Mazraoui and Dorgu as wing-backs did not yield positive results. The team’s loss at home to a side with ten men highlights a more significant underlying issue.
