From tv
Trafford 8 looking more confident every game
CJER 8 we have a great centre back pairing by Championship standards
Roberts 7 does a professional job
Esteve 8 another class performance
Humphreys 7 great prospect
Cullen 9 unbelievable work rate combined with bags of skill
Laurent 7 his size and strength give us more power
Brownhill 9 he was everywhere today and got his goal
Hannibal 8 he brings intensity and energy to the team, his best game so far
Laurent 7 I have called him in the past but his first performance today was an 8, then he dropped of in the second
Flemming 7 some very good moves but everyone knows he is not a number 9

Perhaps our best home display so far this season, which shows Parker has got them improving. We are still short up front and need a good Championship striker, the rest of the team is gelling well with players like Hannibal, CJ, Laurent, Humphreys all learning their roles as we progress as a team.

Trafford...8

CJ...8 ...helluva prospect...some top long passes
Bash...7
Cullen...9 mom..nearest thing to Brian Flynn I've seen since Brian Flynn.
Laurent...7
Brownhill...8 enough said already.
Anthony...8..constant threat...big improvement from his sh1t show last week.
Hannibal...8..the lad has plenty in his locker..he'll play a big part in 2nd half of season.
Flemm...8..see Hannibal.

Trafford 7- not much to do but did well. Came for a big punch towards the end and played through the lines well.

Roberts- 8. Roberts of old. Moved the ball well. Got forward well and did well against some tricky wingers
CJ- 8 gets better every single week. Will play for a big club one day
Esteve- 7. Mr consistent. See above
Humphreys- 7. Got forward well and did okay against a tricky winger in Baah

Cullen- 10. Absolutely ran the show. Won everything in the middle, barely gave the ball away and was the calmest man in Turf Moor for the last 15-20 mins
Laurent- 8. So much better next to Cullen. Gets stuck in. Loads of energy and takes one for the team when he has to. Simply excellent
Brownhill- 8. Not often I complement but a lot better today. Ran in behind the striker which is something we’ve missed.

Anthony- 7. Knocking a point off for backing out of 2/3 challenges when we needed him to get stuck in. Big player in this team
Flemming- 7. Battled well and works incredibly hard off the ball.
Hannibal- 8. Best game for us. The touch for the 2nd goal to play Humphreys in was phenomenal. The touch for the assist even better.

Koleosho- 6. Not the best time to come on but did well
Rodriguez- 6. As above
Egan- 6. Don’t think he touched the ball but was a presence when they tried throwing the kitchen sink at us

Really enjoyed that, hopefully a sign of things to come. Esteve and CJ moving the ball quicker, some nice switches of play, Humphries solid, Roberts very good, and with the addition of Hannibal in to the midfield, we looked very dangerous, as we could commit 3 or 4 to the press at once. Reminded me a bit of how we used to play under Dyche at times with the wingers tucking in and making us a lot more solid as a result.

Referee had a terrible second half and almost let them back into the game. I feel with one or two quality additions in Jan, then the top two is still on. Sheff Utd away is a must not lose game if we have hopes for the title.

Trafford...8 - Looks to have filled out a bit, getting more confident every game.
Roberts...8 - I really like the edge he plays with, constantly probing
Esteve...8..His distribution is improving.
CJ...8 ...We miss his switches of play when he's not in the team.
Humphries...7 - Solid, put in a peach of a cross in the second half.
Cullen...9* When he's on it we look a really good side.
Laurent...7 - Broke up play well
Brownhill...9 - All over the place, needs to play as an 8 for the rest of the season now.
Anthony...8..Back to his best
Hannibal...9..Thought he gave us an extra dimension, and was heavily involved in both goals with his clever play
Flemming...7..Feel like he is struggling in this side, but did all that was askd, and kept it simple when needed.

Brownhill 9 - great finish

Anthony 8 - calm finish and did some flicks that I haven’t seen from him before
Flemming 7 - His best so far

Koleosho- 6

We seem to be getting a bit carried away. I enjoyed the performance, but had Watford got an equaliser, the marks on here would have been very different.
We had enough chances to be out of sight, but a good 3 points and nicely set up for boxing day.

Trafford 8 - one great save and super solid effort.
Roberts 7 - enjoying his football with lots of freedom
Egan-Riley 8 - good defending with some good distribution
Estève 8 - always under control and dealt well as usual
Humphreys 7 - a good footballer filling in very well at left back
Cullen 9 mom - excellent performance. Ran the show.
Laurent 7 - provides backbone
Anthony 7 - good goal and lots of skillful movement
Brownhill 8 - very good further forward. Sublime finish.
Hannibal 8 - another talented footballer. Didn't get involved in his usual nonsense
Flemming 6 - did ok trying to play as a striker. Naturally comes deeper. I'd like to see him be more of a threat from corners.
