    Conor Hourihane was my man of the match.

    I'd say he may have been worse than anyone else on park, Roberts was impeccable again and much better at his job than Conor was at his.

    I thought he was good too, probably ran more miles than anyone else today.

    His set pieces were not to his usual very high standards today but he showed some good touches in open play.

    3rd best for me. The centre backs were slightly better but he was good today, some cracking passes

    Dont dislike houriane and after burton match I think it proved we need him in the team, just a bit quit today in a very tight game, we lacked a bit of pace, a but if width, and hopefully with Williams to come I and Harris it will alter a bit in our favour.

    Not a coincidence, that when Pearson was taken off we went under sustained pressure, and were lucky to get away with it.

    Thought Hourihane was best of the midfielders today.

    He was the only one trying to take some responsibility.

    Hit some decent forward passes.

    A few set pieces let him down in the first half though.

    Can't see how you come up with him being the only responsible one.

    Scowen dropped back more than him to pick the ball up from the centre halves.

    The 3 central midfielders seemed to take it in turns.

    CH had a half decent game. S'abart it.

    He had a good game. Nearly won it for us at the death with the quality of his free kick. I thought our centre halves were our best players though as we were consistently rubbish going forward.

    Not a lot to pick between most of them to be honest, if pushed I would say Mawson impressed me more this week than last, carrying the ball out from the back and playing it on the deck rather than the hoof we are used to.

    Mmmm...when he puts one in the right area it's quality, when he under or over hoofs it it's forgotten.

    We weren't rubbish going forward, but CH cannot beat a man nor pass it other than with one foot, so it does tend to limit one's going forward.

    He was ok. Played a few cracking through balls, but also soiled his pants about three times when it came to putting a foot/head in.
