Arsenal
3-3: Saturday, 9th April(Replaced Zarate) Didn’t register much on the radar.
Liverpool
3-0: Saturday, 29th August(Replaced Payet) Looked lively late on and kept the full back busy for the last few minutes.
AFC Bournemouth
3-4: Saturday, 22nd August(Replaced Nolan) Added a bit of much needed width in the second half but spent ages being starved of service.
Arsenal
2-0: Sunday, 9th August(Replaced Zarate) Didn’t register much on the radar.
Arsenal
2-0: Sunday, 9th August(Replaced Zarate) Introduced as an extra man in midfield, Jarvo provided very little in the final third but helped further frustrate Arsenal for the final third.
Astra Giurgiu
1-2: Thursday, 6th AugustTried to get things going on both flanks but ws let down far too often by his delivery.

3-0: Thursday, 2nd July(Replaced Valencia) Came on, ran around for 20 minutes. Can't remember him doing anything notable.
Newcastle United
0-2: Sunday, 24th May(Replaced Valencia) Came on, ran around for 20 minutes. Can't remember him doing anything notable.
Everton
1-2: Saturday, 16th May(Replaced Valencia) Came on, ran around for 20 minutes. Can't remember him doing anything notable.
Aston Villa

Burnley

Burnley
1-0: Saturday, 2nd MayDid not play.
Queens Park Rangers
0-0: Saturday, 25th AprilEnergetic, but not terribly effective in an out-of-sorts team, although his set-pieces were decent.
Manchester City
0-2: Sunday, 19th April(Replaced Valencia) Came on, ran around for 20 minutes. Can't remember him doing anything notable.
Stoke City
1-1: Saturday, 11th AprilDid not play.
Leicester City
1-2: Saturday, 4th AprilDid not play.
Sunderland
1-0: Saturday, 21st MarchI was slightly surprised he started; I was expecting Cole to be alongside Sakho. He did well enough again, though he was subbed for some reason at half-time.
Arsenal
0-3: Saturday, 14th MarchA bit-part player this season. In a rare start, played really well.
Chelsea
0-1: Wednesday, 4th MarchCrystal Palace
1-3: Saturday, 28th FebruaryDid not play.
Tottenham Hotspur
2-2: Sunday, 22nd February(Replaced Valencia) Came on, ran around for 20 minutes. Can't remember him doing anything notable.
West Bromwich Albion
0-4: Saturday, 14th FebruaryDid not play.
Southampton
0-0: Wednesday, 11th February(replaced Valencia)
Manchester United
1-1: Sunday, 8th February(replaced Valencia) All he'll be remembered for is the header he failed to get on target. Which is a bit unfair, as he looked lively during his brief spell on the field.
Liverpool
0-2: Saturday, 31st JanuaryDid not play.
Bristol City

Everton
2-2: Tuesday, 13th JanuaryOne word - ineffective. Alright, two words - completely ineffective.
Everton
2-2: Tuesday, 13th JanuaryA poor performance from a player who needs a run of good form if he's to stand any chance of winning a regular place back in the match day squad.
Swansea
1-1: Saturday, 10th JanuaryDid not play.
Swansea
1-1: Saturday, 10th JanuaryDid not play.
Everton
1-1: Tuesday, 6th JanuaryIndustrious for his three-quarters of the match, but the usual quota of hot and cold, in terms of passing, crossing, and general effectiveness.
Everton
1-1: Tuesday, 6th JanuaryThere's no lack of effort or willing to earn a proper living. He's just not showing enough to suggest he's up to Premier League standard.
West Bromwich Albion
1-1: Thursday, 1st January(replaced Amalfitano) Thrust into the shop window, I mean the action ten minutes into the second half Jarvo failed to provide much inspiration bar one decent run.
West Bromwich Albion
2-1: Tuesday, 2nd DecemberDid not play.

Newcastle United
1-0: Saturday, 29th NovemberThe new Mattie Taylor? Never stopped running, working, harrying, for his 70 minutes. Not always to any great benefit, not least because he didn't always get good ball to feed on, but terrific effort on his first start of the season.
Newcastle United
1-0: Saturday, 29th NovemberA bit in and out of the game. Mainly out though.
Everton
1-2: Saturday, 22nd November(replaced Noble) Also looked lively, as you would expect, and did OK, though he wasn't able to make the same impact as Zarate.
Queens Park Rangers
2-0: Sunday, 5th October(Replaced Valencia) Despite having less than 10 minutes, looked lively and caused problems.
Queens Park Rangers
2-0: Sunday, 5th October(Replaced Valencia) Had a lively few minutes at the end on his return from injury.
Sampdoria

0-2: Sunday, 11th MayTottenham Hotspur
2-0: Saturday, 3rd MayDidn't really show in the few minutes he was on.
Tottenham Hotspur
2-0: Saturday, 3rd MayOn for Nolan on 87, had no chance to do anything meaningful.
West Bromwich Albion
0-1: Saturday, 26th AprilThrough little fault of his own, more or less disappeared in the second half, but terrorised the Baggies' defence before half time. If only he'd play like this every game.
Crystal Palace
0-1: Saturday, 19th AprilHauled off after 69 minutes, which did not seem a popular decision! Didn't see his fair share of the ball, which seemed to go up Downing's side rather more often, but played quite well.
Arsenal
1-3: Tuesday, 15th AprilVery nearly MotM. Should pinch Downing's boots more often!
Liverpool
1-2: Sunday, 6th AprilDid make a couple of decent runs & one good cross, but not on for long enough to really contribute.
Sunderland
2-1: Monday, 31st MarchDid not play.
Manchester United
0-2: Saturday, 22nd MarchPut one good cross in, ran around enthusiastically for 30-odd minutes. Everything else he did was poor, though. We'd have done better to keep Diame on.
Stoke City
1-3: Saturday, 15th MarchEverton
0-1: Saturday, 1st MarchWorked hard in attack & defence, but didn't create much going forwards.
Southampton
3-1: Saturday, 22nd FebruarySome good work down the flank and took the goal well – bravely so given the 'keeper's efforts to give him an unplanned vasectomy.
Southampton
3-1: Saturday, 22nd FebruaryLooked miffed at being taken off; quite right too. Worked hard , both in defence and in trying to create threat going forwards. Might have won MotM in a game in which there were no real standouts on either side.
Norwich City
2-0: Tuesday, 11th FebruaryNothing awful, nothing particularly great either.
Aston Villa
2-0: Saturday, 8th FebruaryLearn. To. Finish your attacking moves. Still industrious, still can't find the killer cross. Or, today, a finish.
Swansea City
2-0: Saturday, 1st FebruaryA little bit in and out of the game but was looking dangerous sporadically. His sacrifice was less a reflection on his performance more on the game situation – “needs must when Webb has a nightmare” if you like.
Swansea City
2-0: Saturday, 1st FebruaryHis work-rate continues to be excellent; his delivery & effectiveness going forward was much better today.
Cardiff City
2-0: Saturday, 11th JanuaryConsistent supply.
Fulham
1-2: Wednesday, 1st JanuaryDid not play.
West Bromwich Albion
3-3: Saturday, 28th DecemberPlayed well - had bottle - created chances.
West Bromwich Albion
3-3: Saturday, 28th DecemberGot into some good positions early on but faded.
Tottenham Hotspur
2-1: Wednesday, 18th DecemberLooking like he is returning to form at the right time.
Tottenham Hotspur
2-1: Wednesday, 18th DecemberContributed little of note until he popped up to score his second of the season.
Sunderland
0-0: Saturday, 14th DecemberVery, very poor.
Sunderland
0-0: Saturday, 14th DecemberGood runs down the left spoilt by some pretty average crossing.
Liverpool
1-4: Saturday, 7th DecemberWill get an assist for Skrtel's oggie and put in one great cross that Maiga was unlucky not to register with. Liitle else to sing about though.
Crystal Palace
0-1: Tuesday, 3rd DecemberDid not play.
Crystal Palace
0-1: Tuesday, 3rd DecemberDid not play.
Chelsea
0-3: Saturday, 23rd NovemberHad pretty much the same effect as the man he replaced really.
Chelsea
0-3: Saturday, 23rd NovemberFairly limited involvement in his fifteen minutes on the pitch.
Norwich City
1-3: Saturday, 9th NovemberLittle time to have an effect on the game but he'll be happy with the appearance money nonetheless.
Aston Villa
0-0: Saturday, 2nd NovemberTextbook frustrating first half for the man with the millstone price-tag. Seemed bereft of confidence and too willing to be dominated by a robust full-back. Second half was a transformed man though, finally having the confidence to take on his man, which he often did with consummate ease. Why he can’t do this all the time remains a mystery. Really starting to have an impact just in time to be hauled off, which seemed an odd decision.
Aston Villa
0-0: Saturday, 2nd NovemberHad the beating of his full back but his crosses were invariably cut out.
Aston Villa
0-0: Saturday, 2nd NovemberGetting back to form with some good runs.
Swansea City
0-0: Sunday, 27th OctoberSome good balls into the box.
Manchester City
1-3: Saturday, 19th OctoberGot into a few good positions but with no-one to cross to his crosses often found no-one.
Tottenham Hotspur
3-0: Sunday, 6th OctoberDid not play.
Hull City
0-1: Saturday, 28th SeptemberNot a lot to write home about.
Everton
2-3: Saturday, 21st SeptemberSet up a goal but otherwise ineffective.
Everton
2-3: Saturday, 21st SeptemberLooked good when we fed him and he set up the goal. So why did we starve him in the second half.
Southampton
0-0: Saturday, 14th SeptemberUncharacteristically quiet.
Stoke City
0-1: Saturday, 31st AugustOk without service wingers are always going to struggle but even on the rare occasions we did feed him he didn’t look dangerous.
Newcastle United
0-0: Saturday, 24th AugustExcellent work and produced some top crosses into the middle.
Cardiff City
2-0: Saturday, 17th AugustSet up the first goal and looked lively – though he can only perform if he gets the service that became less forthcoming as the match progressed in the second half.

Wigan Athletic
2-0: Saturday, 20th AprilDrifted in and out of the game a bit. Hilarious goal though.
Manchester United
2-2: Wednesday, 17th AprilFine first half in which he caused them all sorts of problems. Slightly less involved in the second half.
Southampton

Tottenham Hotspur
2-3: Monday, 25th FebruaryLooked dangerous in the first half. Less influential after the interval.
Swansea City
1-0: Saturday, 2nd FebruaryStarved of service for much of the match he was always going to find it hard to impress.
Queens Park Rangers
1-1: Saturday, 19th JanuarySaw a lot of the ball and sometimes looked dangerous. Sometimes not.
Manchester United
2-2: Saturday, 5th January(Replaced Vaz Te, 61)
Took the ball forward well when he came on for Vaz Te.
Norwich City
2-1: Tuesday, 1st JanuaryFine first half but faded a bit after the interval.
Everton
1-2: Saturday, 22nd DecemberLooked lively going forward but another who struggled to cope when the ball started to come straight back.
Chelsea
3-1: Saturday, 1st DecemberLacked confidence in the first half. Seemed full of beans in a second half performance that gave a hint of what he might be capable of.
Manchester City
0-0: Saturday, 3rd NovemberDrifted in and out of the game a bit – mainly because a lot of our play seemed to be going down the right. However, when he started to take on his marker it was a good battle.
Wigan Athletic
1-2: Saturday, 27th OctoberUtterly anonymous for the first half hour before starting to exert some influence in the closing stages of the first half. Sadly it wasn’t to last and he reverted back to predominant anonymity once more. Looking some way off a double-digit million pound winger at the moment.
Southampton
4-1: Saturday, 20th OctoberAnother who had a quiet game. There were little glimpses here and there but they were too few and far between.
Arsenal
1-3: Saturday, 6th OctoberGood in parts but failed to really grab the game by the scruff of the neck.
Sunderland
1-1: Saturday, 22nd September(Replaced Taylor, 57)
Looked lively and dangerous, though his contribution to the equaliser owed more to sheer bloody-mindedness in keeping the ball alive.
Norwich City
0-0: Saturday, 15th September(Replaced Taylor, 57)
Came on and looked sharp - and his crosses very dangerous! Still a lot to live up to given the price we paid for him.
Swansea City
0-3: Saturday, 25th AugustHad a decent debut. Switched wings to try and make things happen. Delivered a few quality crosses, particularly in the first half, and if he can continue doing this, then he will have a successful season.
