Rangers are in even deeper trouble following another dismal away day. Here’s how we rated the players in their 4-1 defeat at the Liberty Stadium.
Julio Cesar: 5
An afternoon to forget for the Brazilian, who was at fault for three of Swansea’s goals.
Nedum Onuoha: 5
Should have done better for Swansea’s all-important third goal, when he was beaten by Pablo Hernandez.
Chris Samba: 5
Consistently troubled despite his physical presence and dismally beaten for Michu’s second goal. Looks unfit.
Clint Hill: 5
Given all sorts of problems by Michu and was slow to react for the opening goal.
Armand Traore: 5
Caught out a number of times, including in the build-up to the second goal.
Jamie Mackie: 5
Also at fault for the second goal, failing to track the run of Angel Rangel. Produced little going forward.
Shaun Derry: 5
Awful in front of the back four. Swansea played around him with ease.
Stephane Mbia: 5
Another who offered absolutely no protection to the defence, which is his job. Unlucky not to score though when his effort was cleared off the line.
Jermaine Jenas: 5
Tidy enough but was unable to assert himself.
Andros Townsend: 6
Troubled Swansea at times with his pace and produced a couple of decent crosses.
Adel Taarabt: 7
The driving force for Rangers’ goal and was unlucky with an effort he curled just wide. Worked hard up front.
Bobby Zamora: 7
Added some presence up front when he came on, took his goal well and set up a late chance for Shaun Wright-Phillips with a clever ball.
Esteban Granero: 6
Effective enough when introduced for the second half.
Shaun Wright-Phillips: 6
Unlucky to see his injury-time effort hit the bar.
