Stockdale - 7 - not a lot to do, another clean sheet, good distribution
Bruno - 7 - solid
Bong - 7 - also solid
Dunk - 8 - didn't put a foot wrong but overshadowed a bit by....
Duffy - 8.5 - immense, again
Sidwell - 9 - fabulous goal, but equally fabulous CM performance. My MOM
Stephens - 7.5 - bit erratic early on but settled
Skalak - 6.5 - quiet game
Murphy - 8 - always looked dangerous, particularly first half
Murray - 7 - quiet (ish)
Baldock - 7 - usual quota of good runs but lacking end product

Subs
Norwood - 7 - solid
Hemed - 6.5 - could have done better with a couple of chances
March - n/a - not long enough to rate, but some really encouraging signs

Hughton - 9 - great game management. Comfy chairs and cigars 2nd half, BCFC never really looked like scoring

I'd go higher on some - Bruno & Bong were very classy. Actually thought Skalak did really well again although fairly quiet - he's already improved a lot under Hughton. Jamie Murphy showed again how dangerous he is when he runs at players. Our wingers are ridiculous - let's not forget what an impact player KLL can be and that's before we've even looked at Solly March's form before he got crocked!

Not sure I've ever seen us control an away game like that at this level. Sheer dominance without needing to go up a gear or 2 against a team 7th in the league. Ridiculous.

Sidwell was my MOM. Special mentions for Murphy and Duffy. Was concerned for us without AK but Murphy really filled the void and played extremely well.

Sidwell was magnificent again. His defensive work in front of the back four is exceptional and against the so called "better" sides like Norwich and Bristol he is the perfect player to have in the side. How much possession have we allowed Norwich and Bristol without them hurting us? A lot of that is down to Sidwell blocking and breaking up play.

great display from the boys....only blott being Baldock an=d Muzz being at 6's &7's frequently......Muzz could have had another hat-trick if the ballhad been put on the right side of him....Murphy had a great game i thought.

Surprised no one has commented on Baldock 's piece of skill, where he left two city defenders for dead before firing in a low cross just begging to be knocked in. Knockaertesque skills

Apart from thinking Murphy is right footed that's a good post. I liked this one - Hughtons dignity is rubbing off on the team:

'They were very good.

But the best thing? zero time wasting, no diving. no dirty play.

If it can't be us going up, would not object if it was this lot.'

Murphy is very right-footed ?

I think hs very both footed - I remember this when watching videos when we signed him. Stronger on right but nowhere near as one footed as March...

Bruno 7 Ole
Dunk 8 The impenetrable wall.
Duffy 8 See above
Bong 7 The old Bong is back
Skalak 6
Stephens 7 Proper midfielder, fit and harrying.
Sidwell 8 **** did you see that!
Murphy 9 Our best attacker last night, he played well at Bristol last year too.
Baldock 7 He left 'cos you're shit.
Murray 6
