THE PLAYER ratings following Wolves 2-2 derby day draw with Birmingham City. Colin Cameron and Carl Cort bagged the Wolves goals in the mid-day kick off.
 |
Paul Jones | Saved Wolves skin in the last few minutes. Dived in at the feet of Forssell but generally performed well. |
 |
Lee Naylor | Tried hard. His balls into the box could have been better, but held the line well. |
 |
Oleg Luzhny | Probably his last ever performance in the Premiership. Gave it his all, but was too slow. Taken off for Ganea in the second half. |
 |
Paul Butler | Injured hand and broken nose, but Paul Butler will continue to battle on. |
 |
Isaac Okoronkwo | His form may be too late, but his performance at Blues along with other recent displays looks promising. |
 |
Colin Cameron | Scored one superb goal and is benefiting for his recent extended spell in the first team. |
 |
Mark Kennedy | One of his best games of the season. The Irish winger defended very well and made one superb last minute tackle from Steed Malbranque. |
 |
Paul Ince | Looked as gutted as the Wolves fans at the final whistle. A true leader who must stay if Wolves are to bounce straight back. |
 |
Henri Camara | Continued to cause Blues all sorts of problems. Failed to score his sixth consecutive league goal but made up for it with his work rate and skill. |
 |
Carl Cort | Forming a superb partnership with the small Henri Camara. Was sharp for his goal and won almost every ball in the air. |
 |
Shaun Newton | Very impressive. Caused Blues plenty of problems but was showing signs of a new part of his game. Threw himself in front of everything. Man Of The Match |
 |
Vio Ganea | Replaced Oleg Luzhny. The Romanian got stuck in and had a good chance but was unable to get the ball from under his feet. |
 |
Alex Rae | Came on for Kennedy late on in one of his last performances before his dream move to Rangers. Made one superb turn and gave his all. |
 |
Kenny Miller | Replaced Colin Cameron with two minutes to go. Failed to have any impact on the game in his short spell. |
