All 10 cept liability Greer a 5
Thought all of the players were great.Bridcutt - mom - dominated the pitch CMS was outstanding and 2 brilliantly taken goals.Dicker was really good and the back 4 were way to good for the Burnley attack.
So Bridcutt 10
the rest were all 8 or 9,a truly outstanding performance.Long may it continue.

Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!
Primary data is fact
We played well, Burnley didn't. CMS had a stormer with two really good goals as you can see on the FL show, Greer's brace weren't bad either. Bridcutt was good, Orlandi showed some nice touches and my only picky points are:
1) Our central defence had some trouble when Burnley started to play high balls in during the second half, not dissimilar to the Cardiff game at the Amex. Kebab's distribution going forward wasn't good.
2) KLL's final delivery could be better at times.
3) Bridge and Barnes picked up totally unnecessary and avoidable bookings.
4) We were occasionally careless in possession but perhaps that was due to us being bored with Burnley's generally feeble perfomance.
Finally, watching some cricket at the adjacent Burnley CC beforehand was very civilised and a real joy.
Bridge and Bruno looked a bit shaky but to be fair Burnley had 4 players round them as soon as they crossed the half way line. Crofts was superb until he went off and we had a shaky 30 minutes after he went when Koooshak kept us in with a couple of cracking saves.
Dicker & Bridcutt had very good games. Controlled everything around them.
CMS was unplayable, not just his 2 goals but his all round play was so good, nobody wanted to mark him. Barnes was fairly quiet but nearly scored a worldy himself with a volley.
Burnleys PA needs turning down, kids crying and trying to hide under the seats before the game!

My one real criticism of Barnes, hope he grows out of it sometime soon
I thought in 3 out of 4 of our bookings the ref was absolutely conned, Bruno's especially. Then again it was almost impossible to know where the line between foul and booking was with such an awful ref.

No one fancy giving us a breakdown as they saw it?

And it's all gone quiet..
Surprised the Burnley player who studded Bridge in the back of the head didn't get shown a card. The same thing happened in the Swansea match and a red was given!

All fours, none of our players played well, especially CMS who gets a 2.
