Player Ratings for the Everton game. Goals from Radzinski and Kilbane were enough to earn Everton all three points. Michael Oakes made one great save for Wolves and is our Man Of The Match.

The Player Ratings: In Association With -

 

 

	Michael Oakes	Made one great save from a deflected Kilbane header. MOTM.
	Lee Naylor	Average performance from the young left-back although certainly adapting to this level
	Denis Irwin	His worst performance of the season. At fault for the two goals.
	Paul Butler	Was caught wandering for the second goal but on the whole kept Rooney quiet.
	Jody Craddock	Made one or two decent challenged but nothing special.
	Alex Rae	Seemed to tire too easily. A few stray passes, a rare poor game from the Scot. Replaced by Gudjonsson.
	Mark Kennedy	Put in a few telling crosses and helped Lee Naylor on the left. Again nothing special.
	Paul Ince	Lost the fight between himself and Gravesen in the midfield battle. Booked.
	Shaun Newton	A poor first half from Newton. Replaced at half time by Kenny Miller.
	Henri Camara	Played in attack but failed to see much of the ball. His quick feet and close ball skills were left in Wolverhampton.
	Steffen Iversen	Came close with a header before the break where he was replaced by Nathan Blake..
	Kenny Miller	Replaced Shaun Newton at Half Time. A few nice touches, but again, nothing special.
	Nathan Blake	Replaced Steffen Iversen at half time. He had Wolves two best chances. Miss-kicked the first and saw his header for the second well saved.
	Joey Gudjonsson	Replaced Alex Rae in the Midfield. Made a few telling tackles and had one shot which was well off target.
