I know I've dished out a lot of 7's but it was a really good team performance today and no-one had a bad game (apart from possibly Hemed who is very short of confidence).

Completely agree with these ratings. Only thing I would change is give Greer a 9 another quality display from the captain.

March 10 - I'm going to say that was the best performance by an Albion winger since Vicente. Fantastic from start to finish

Zamora 7
Hemed 5

Subs:

Calderon 7 - best thing I can say was that I didn't notice Rosenior's absence.
Wilson 7
Ince 6

Stockdale 7 - some great saves but will be disappointed with the goal
Bruno 8 - the beard has Herculean qualities
Dunk 7 - some rash decision making. Still not at his best
Greer 8 - still our best centre half this season
Rosenior 7 - please be okay

Stephens 7 - solid
Kayal 9 - wonderful performance. Had everything today
Murphy 6 - overshadowed by...
March 10 - simply amazing, I've never given a 10 but he absolutely terrorised a very good side. I can't believe this is the same player who didn't seem to be able to find a team mate with a pass earlier in the season

Zamora 8 - a pest. Great anticipation for he goal
Hemed 6 - I'm guessing he'll be benched soon for Wilson

Subs:

Calderon 6 - got done for pace but terrific commitment as ever
Wilson 6 - struggled to make an impact as we say back. Unlucky not to score
Ince 6

I know I've dished out a lot of 7's but it was a really good team performance today and no-one had a bad game (apart from possibly Hemed who is very short of confidence).[/QUOTE]

Stockdale 8 Fantastic save at the end, couldn't have done much with the goal, the first shot was rasping

Bruno 7.5 Another very good game
Dunk 7 Solid. Twitter indicating goal was disallowed because of him
Greer 8.5 Absolutely commanding. Won everything in the air. Superb performance
Rosenior 7 Hope he is ok

Stephens 7 Steady
Kayal 9 Immense, again
Murphy 7.5 Decent game
March 9.5 Best I've seen him play. When his tail is up he is brilliant. Confidence. Even won the ball a couple of times too

Zamora 7 Right place right time again. It's not luck.
Hemed 7 Very good today, really feel for the fella not scoring because he deserves it.

Subs:

Calderon 7 Did very well out of position
Wilson 7 Confident, quick, will play the Baldock role but looks better.
Ince 6 Did ok

CH 9 Got to love the bloke.

Kayal 7.5 Standard Kayal, classy
Stephens 7.5 Good performance
Murphy 7.5 Was threatening throughout
Zamora 7.5 Got the winner, played well
Hemed 6 Needs a goal desperately, but wasn't woeful
Subs:
Calde 7 Good job filling in at left back
Wilson 7 Looks quick, so unlucky with that finish.
Ince 6.5 Did okay

Stockdale 8 saved what he needed to, not at fault for the goal, very good save at the end

Bruno 9 he's really very good
Greer 8 Dunk 8 Cleared up what they had to, simple and impressive.
Rosenior 7
Calderon 8 jiust slipped comfortably into the defence, rumours of his demise are premature

Kayal 9 Liam who? socalm, so comfortable
Stephens 8 Didn't notice him, but considering our dominance of midfield,must have been good
March 10 why not. superb
Murphy 9 Quiet overall, but when we needed him up front he delivered. So much better than v Burnley
Ince 7 see hemed

Hemed 7 Generous perhaps,but he works hard, must be popular in the squad, and I can't give anyone a 6 after that performance
Zamora 9 sort of a forgotten man perhaps - in that we see him as a cameo player, and yet 4 crucial goals and great linkup play
Wilson 7 oh so close, looks sharp and confident

Agree with these. Greer covered a lot for Dunk, who is better as a defender going forward than as a defender defending. Wilson looks very exciting. Glad we have Stockdale and not PIG

Birmingham - nasty attitude and unpleasant like their shirts. Hope their season goes to pieces.

Mine aren't too far off a few others:

Stockdale 8.5 -- one world class save, a few other good ones, distribution largely good
Bruno 8 -- sheer class
Greer 8 -- he's exceeding himself this season
Dunk 6.5 -- classy, but needs to appreciate that the default for centre-backs is to stand your ground rather than dive in
Rosenoir 7 -- please be back soon
March 9.5 -- and to think he was turning in to NSC's boo boy in the first few games of the season, PS: he does have a right foot. Sort of.
Kayal 9 -- our most influential player
Stephens 7 -- solid
Murphy 7.5 -- did well
Hemed 7 -- thought he had a good game today, scored, although that shocking ref thought otherwise
Zamora 7 -- scored. Again. He's turning circle is diminishing, his reactions are poor, but he's making one hell of an impact

Subs:
Calde 7 -- welcome back; I was a tad concerned, but the joyful one allayed that pretty swiftly
Wilson 7 -- think he'll probably end up as our leading scorer.
Ince 5 -- he's gone downhill unfortunately.

Hemed 3 - did nothing and like a statue when Sollys crosses kept swinging in. Any cf who could be bothered to get in front if the keeper could have had a hat trick. Drop for Wildon

A 3? Seriously? Runs his socks off, in all the right positions and passing is great. Just unlucky at the moment.

Very poor central attacking . Zamora and Hemed together not the answer. Wilson was a breath of fresh air with his pace and hope he starts next game

One of the best Albion performances I have ever seen. Great time to be an Albion fan.

Stockdale 8. Would have been a 9, but I think he could have done better with the goal. Great save at the end.
Bruno 8. Great game. Back to his very best.
Greer 8. Was going to give him a 9 for a great performance, but many on here think he was responsible for the B'ham goal.
Dunk 8. Strong performance. Much better than of late.
Rosenior 8. Was playing well. Hope his injury is not as bad as it looked.
Kayal 9. Brilliant performance.
Stephens 8. Excellent.
March 10. I've never given a 10 before, but boy, did he deserve it. What a great all-round performance.
Murphy 8. Best he's played for a while.
Zamora 8. Well taken goal and good distribution, but a few misplaced passes.
Hemed 7. Decent game, but needs a goal.

Subs:
Calderon 8. Did a great job replacing Rosenior.
Wilson 8. The kid had definitely got potential. Maybe should have scored instead of hitting the post.
Ince N/A Hardly touched the ball in the short time he was on the field.

Manager 10. Wow!!

Ref 3.

I've been disappointed with this season's football (not the results, obviously, just our performances). My main complain being our inability to control a game for more than 20-30 minutes. That we are solid and defiant, but that it feels like we are reacting to opponents, rather than playing on the front foot and forcing them into reacting (plus, I just generally prefer the possession and slow build of recent years).

Today I felt we controlled the game for most of it. Again, our inability to convert chances is a concern. We seemed to settle with 2-1 by the time Wilson came on, I wonder if he'd played from the start if we would have converted more chances.

I was disappointed with the last ten minutes or so. Not because we weren't controlling the game, but because we allowed Birmingham to be more of a threat than they had any right to be given the rest of the game.

Stockdale - 7.5
Bruno - 7.5
Greer - 8
Dunk - 7
Rosenior - 7
Kayal - 8
Stephens - 7.5
March - 8.5
Murphy - 8.25
Zamora - 7.5
Hemed - 7

Calderon - 7
Wilson - 7
Ince - Not really on long enough.
