Reyes did give the ball away a few times - Assulin looked good but was only on for a short time - about right
He wasn't on long, but a great through ball for third goal, and generally looked good. Got to be a 7.

Barnes had an excellent game, scores two goals, and still some utter spanners lay into him.

I wish you wouldn't bother coming to games, chaps, as you're embarrassing yourselves with your knowledge of football.

As Gus said in his post match interview "some people don't see what Ash does"

He possibly should have said, some people refuse to see.....................

Brezovan 6 Couple of routine saves that he is paid to do but caught out too often and distribution not too good.
Jara Reyes 7 Good moments but gave the ball away too often.
Greer 8 Good performance
El Abd 8 Makes a good double with GG, good game
Mattock 7 Competent performance
Buckley 7 Started off well but faded badly
Bridcutt 7 Mr Reliable did all we have come to expect of him no frills just an honest player.
Razak 9.5 Incredible game showed class and composure all around his play.
Navarro 8 One of his best performances for us
Barnes 8 Very good performance good going forward to get 2 goals and did equally well defending.
CMS 8 Looked to be enjoying him self and was a constant threat always looking for the ball to come over his shoulder.

Subs
Vokes 6 Didnt get a great deal of service or chance to show his ability.
Assulin 7 Showed that he has tricks and speed when on but not for long enough to give a true judgement.
Lua Lua Not on long enough but did ok for the few minutes that he was on the pitch

Brez - 6. Got Lucky a few times but reasonably okay
Jara Reyes - 6. Done well enough but did not get involved enough
El-Abd - 8. Had a great game and got stuck in as usual
Greer - 7. A solid Captains peformance
Mattock - 8. Had a very good game, would love it if we signed him on a perm.
Navarro - 6. Struggles at times but still had a solid game with a few very good interceptions
Bridcutt - 8. Partnered Razak very well and a very typical Bridcutt performance
Razak - 9. Man of the match and a near perfect performance minus a goal. His passing is sublime and very strong physically. Set the first goal up with a superb pass
Buckley - 8. Worked hard against a decent Ipswich defence. Good performance
Barnes - 7.5. A weird day. sometimes he looked clumsy and at other times he was superb. He took 2nd goal very well.
CMS - 8. Another workman like performance and deserved his goal.

Assulin - 7. Played well the time he was on the pitch and his class and awareness showed. His days at Barca have clearly rubbed off in him
Vokes - 6. Unlucky not to bang one in but would still prefer to see him start up front with CMS
Lua Lua - 5. Not much time to make an impact

i thought Navs had probably his best game of the season

Apart from that horrendous back pass of course.

Brez 7
Reyes 6
Mattock 7
Greer 8
El abd 8
Navarro 7
Razak 9
Bridcutt 8
Buckley 7
Cms 8
Barnes 7

What a mixed bag from barnes! Two great goals but should have scored at least one more in the first half when razAk picked him out in space twice but he decided not to shoot with his left foot. Worked tirelessly but often gave the ball away, over hitting simple passes. One thing's for sure, he repaid poyet's faith in him.

Brezovan - 7. Did what he needed to, but spilled a shot or two.

Reyes - 7. Generally solid but gave the ball away a few times.
Greer - 9. f***ing bossed it today. He deserves to captain the Scotland national team imo.
El-Abd - 8. Solid.
Mattock - 8. Played really well today, great going forward and defending. Sign him up.

Bridcutt - 8.5. Arguably our most important player, great show today.
Razak - 9. :bowdown:
Navarro - 8.5. Reminded me of Scholes today. 50 yard passes on a sixpence several times.
Buckley - 7.5. Great wingplay, although not as involved as he has could've been (I shan't complain though!). Punished Ipswich for playing such a high line.

Mackail-Smith - 8. Looked so dangerous in the first half, deserved a brace. Happy Birthday Macca.
Barnes - 8. Won us a few free kicks, got back and defended well and showed some nice finishing for his two goals today.

----------

Assulin - 7. Just generally pretty damn tidy, and showed us his lightning pace at one point.
Vokes - 7. Unlucky not to get on the scoresheet today.
Lualua - 7. Not enough time to create a lot, but enough to run rings around a couple of their defenders.

Added to which he also said he was about to take him off because he was not very good!! Then he scored.

I thought Greer and El-Abd were class today. El-Abd made some amazing blocks!
Oh, and Is it just me or has Gordon Greer developed a huge bald spot within a matter of weeks?!?!
