GRANT: Quietly impressive debut with three saves to earn a clean sheet.8

LOWE: A towering presence against City's own version of the twin towers. 9

HARLEY: Given a real test as City went for broke after the break. 7
ELLIOTT: Lively wing play and several top class crosses. 8
SPICER: The Londoner is learning to love life in the north. 8
HYDE: Entrenched himself in front of the back four to keep it tight. 7
J O'CONNOR: Stepped up a gear whenever City tried to get a foothold. 8
G O'CONNOR: It's a rare day when the midfielder never has a sight of goal. 7
AKINBIYI: A real handful and deserved a goal against his former club. 8
SUBS: McCANN (for G O'Connor 80), COURTNEY (for Elliott 85). Not used: NOEL-WILLIAMS, KARBASSIYOON, DYER
