Pascal Groß (6/10) - We all wanted to see Groß get into promising positions and provide his trademark crosses into the box, but the midfielder had to do defensive work for the majority of the game. It's worth noting that he had a goal ruled out for offside.
Marcel Sabitzer (4/10) - Not his best game on the ball especially in a season where the Austrian has been the subject of criticism for failing to replicate his form from last season.
Julian Brandt (2/10) - Very few supporters expected him to be in the starting lineup following the St. Pauli game. Despite that, Brandt seems to have spurned another chance to restore Kovac's faith in him this season. He managed an appalling pass-completion rate of 47%, not to mention his poor touches, work-rate, and the number of times he gave away the ball cheaply.
