Well, well, well. Fantastic result. We had luck on our side but we powered past a startled Burnley in the end. They probably shared the first half. Slack defending for their first and awful mistake for the second. Never a corner for our goal. We came out second half and wrestled back control before pounding them with set pieces. Great result and it's always incredibly satisfying winning that way.
Wes - 8 - Thought he should have done more to put their player off on the second. Great handling all game, commanded his area well and made some decent saves.
Stevens - 6.5 - Mixed got forward well but had a torrid time first half against to their wide man. Got better and he'll only improve with match fitness.
Robinson - 6.5 - Poor for the first and awful for the second. Showed great character to come back stronger second half. Put a cross in for our 3rd and then kneed in the 4th.
Egan - 7 - Solid game. Gave their keeper a torrid time from throws
Anel 7.5 - calm finish for the goal and powerful header leading up to it. Dangerous all the time from set pieces. Bit uncertain at the back first half but improved.
Fury Road - 8.5 - Just misses out as man of the match but brilliant getting forward and stuck to his task defensively. He's a great outlet and showed great control and composure. Is there a quicker player across a pitch for a fight.
Osborn - 8 - thought he was out best midfielder. Great energy and covered so much ground. Involved in most things.
Norwood - 8 - Showed his passing range second half. Can really conduct play and pick a pass.
Fleck - 6 - Thought he was poor first half but grew into the game. Snapping into tackles again and looking determined.
Ndiaye - 7 - Looked sluggish first half but you can never right him off. Getting very good at being in the right place at the right time.
McBurnie - 9 - man of the match. Immense. A nuisance all game and involved in everything.
Subs
Basham - 6 - Came on and added some height and nous
Sharp - 5.5 - Ran around a bit
Hecky - 8 - no Doyle so had to improvise but worked out for us. Bit lucky but huge praise for what we did with set pieces to the management team. We've clearly seen how poor their keeper is and exploited it.
