wilson was a great defender but not an attacking creative full back like baines, and colemans as good as anything, think we have the best 2 full backs ever for everton, but its a different game now, hard to compere fullbacks to years ago as they were their just to defend.

Disagree with Graham Stuart about MOTM. He gives it to Barry.
Baines was hands down the best player, imo.
FWIW my scores:
Howard - 6 (maybe could have caught a few he elected to punch)
Coleman - 7 (not a rip roaring performance but solid and gave us balance...and a goal)
Baines - 9 (what can you say? made the first half his and built the platform for victory)
Jagielka - 7 (didn't have that much defending to do due to solid defending ahead of him, but 7 by virtue of the goal)
Alcarez - 6 (see above but minus the goal contribution)
Barry - 6 (did what he had to do shackling the likes of Cleverly)
McCarthy 8 (not only snuffed out danger but got a few moves going)
Osman - 5 (despite - apparently - covering more ground than anyone other than Barry, his only moment of worth was the quick free kick)
Naismith - 6 (did a lot of running about)
Barkley - 8 (not by any means in top gear, but still the classiest player on the pitch and inspired the win)
Lukaku - 7 (looked much happier on the ball today and the goal shows where he has to be played - ie, not getting chalk on his boots)

Love the way when he is in the box him pulling the ball back knowing all the defenders are running in to protect the goal.
@premierleague: Leighton Baines has 43 #BPL assists. The only defender with more in the competition's history is Le Saux (44) #BUREVE
Superb player and yet another excellent game.
