Great all round team performance
Everybody an 8 and MR/AV a 9
Baka was a headless chicken when he came on.
Midfield options looking good for next few weeks with Sheaf and Kelly fit.

I guarantee the usual suspects who seem to delight for some unknown reason in criticising Max at every opportunity will thankfully and for once have a day off. He's a very effective player with the right strike partner (even at this level). It's amazing how he has stepped up from non-League season after season.

In recent weeks Hyam has been a target too , another player who was bought for our development squad when we were in League 2 . The improvement some of these players have made season after season has been incredible

Today’s performance from Max shows why he’d be fine to keep on as a 4th choice striker next season.

Yes. I was actually told to fcuk off last week by the resident expert on here (clue: his name begins with G) for defending Max from his constant criticism and derision. Some of the comments on here after a defeat are absolutely unbelievable.

Nonsense. He’s quite capable defensively to be fair, he’s surprised me after that calamity at Carrow Road.

Osti too I think. He really stood out as well.

What exactly are people making those players they rated a 6 a scapegoat for?

I'll give a mention to McCallum. I have been a big critic of him this season, but I thought he played really well today.
It's hard to criticise anyone really. We had a plan, we were a bit braver, and it paid off.
Chuffed.

Good God also. Won't have to hear for a week about bring back Giles. Lol dear oh dear.
Wilson 6 Didn’t have much to do, distribution average but we went long a bit more today so hard to judge
Dacosta 6 Struggled to defend against Henry, and didn’t get on the ball much going forward, but fine
Ostigard 8 Did brilliantly carrying the ball forward, the only one of our CBs to do so. Arguably his best game for us.
McFadzean 7 Much better when he’s just putting his head/foot through things than when he’s trying to be Lothar Matthaus
Hyam 7 Played with a lot more aggression today
McCallum 7 Best game he’s had in a long time
Kelly 7 I’m firmly on the bandwagon but he was rusty at times, and nearly cost us a goal losing his man with their free kick routine. But still - I AM ON THE BANDWAGON
Hamer 6 Quiet by his standards but he’s dipped recently as we know
O’Hare 8 MOTM Harried their back line all day. Should have scored. Got an assist!!!
Biamou 8 Dark horse for MOTM if he stayed on. So much more valuable in this system
Walker 7 Another who looked rusty to start (godawful penalty). I think he will outscore Andy Morrell in the Championship
Pask 6
Gyokeres 6 Let’s be honest, he doesn’t offer much
James 6
Baka 6
Special shout-out for the third kit designers, playing the ultimate long game in ensuring we’d be camouflaged with the ref for the first half

Factor in the injury...He looked injured.
Also main thing Robins had faith in him.
Near perfect from Robins Today. Brave to drop James.

Anyway, I have time to do some ratings for once, so here goes:
Wilson - 7 - did everything we needed. Distribution on the whole was good.
Ostigard - 8 - defensively solid and also looked good on the ball. Sometimes looks rushed but he was a lot more composed.
McFadzean - 7 - strong at the back and guided the rest of the defence through the game well.
Hyam - 7 - less of the risky stuff today, and was relatively untroubled defensively. However, at one point in the first half he was far too high when the rest of the defence dropped off.
Da Costa - 7 - a really positive player. Didn’t get a lot of ball or space but was, along with McCallum, key to our high press.
Kelly - 8 - it’s clear the influence he has over the team. Didn’t do anything spectacular with the ball but the communication and the entire team’s positioning was brilliant.
Hamer - 6 - probably the disappointment in all, but as previously said I think it’s because he’s getting flogged big time. Needs a break but didn’t have a bad game by any means.
McCallum - 7 - type of game he prefers, and defensively very good. Passing seemed to be a bit better today as well.
O’Hare - 9 - outstanding. Works tirelessly and is the focal point of the press, stopping Brentford getting into midfield today. Unfortunate not to have taken a more cute touch when through at 2-0.
Biamou - 7 - great supporting striker performance, worked hard, quick thinking on a few occasions to beat defenders to the ball.
Walker - 8 - great to see him back on the scoresheet, and let’s hope it’s a springboard for the rest of the season. Second goal is a brilliant finish.
Subs
Gyokeres - 6 - didn’t do anything wrong but little threat when he came on. In fairness, the plan would have changed by that point.
James - 6 - wasn’t as solid or commanding as Kelly, which surprised me a little. Still neat on the ball.
Sheaf - 7 - kept it simple and gave defensive security with his positioning.
Bakayoko - 5 - sorry, lad, but you’re not a striker. Three touches when his only chance came about which broke the move down.
Pask - 7 - defensively solid when he came on.
Wilson - 7 - did everything we needed. Distribution on the whole was good.
Ostigard - 8 - defensively solid and also looked good on the ball. Sometimes looks rushed but he was a lot more composed.

bit off topic but did anyone think the pitch, while not great, looked a lot better than midweek?

It did. I had to do a double take.
I thought that. Helped a little.
Penalties (like non-headed/cup/playoff goals) don’t count.
And in all seriousness, I’m being harsh on Walker because his penalty really was that bad.

But 9 times out of 10 he’s not good enough - it’s fine if you admit that but you don’t. You overlook dreadful performances and then over praise him above far superior players just as you think he has some sort of X Factor story - he’s ok as an occasional 4th choice - a regular in this or league 1 - no chance

I'm rating players based on being very happy right now, so I might be a bit over the top.
I'd go 10s all round, but Kelly was MoTM and deserves a 10 so the others will have to make do with a 9 instead.
