Scored again, sliding the ball under the ‘keeper after playing a clever one-two on the edge of the area as his side were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Manisaspor. Missed one particularly guilt-edged chance in the second half before his side conceded an equalizer that prevented them from closing the gap on league leaders Fenerbahce to more than three points.

Beaten in the build-up to Catania’s equalizer as his side were held to a 1-1 draw at home, the Aussie playing 87 minutes but failing to make a meaningful attacking contribution.

Carney was introduced in the 84th minute of the 1-0 home win over Vitesse, while Rukavytsya wasn’t in the squad.

Carl Valeri (Grossetto, Italy)

Wasn’t in the squad for the draw at home against Salernitana.

Brad Jones, Rhys Williams (Middlesbrough, England)


Both Aussies played full games in a 1-1 draw at home against Nottingham Forest, Jones making a couple of sharp saves and Williams almost scoring a dramatic headed winner late in the game.

An unused substitute for the 1-1 draw away against Coventry City.
