To be fair, I don't rate Conway at all, however he was ok at times today he just needs to be given the ball a bit earlier.

I thought Conway had a decent game. Andrews, JFC and Lopez were all far worse

Great attitude from Andrew Crofts when he took a nasty bang in the face. Good to see. Ince had a great game at Wigan and played well today.
Kusz 7.5
Calde 6.5 - struggled a bit I thought, perhaps slightly rusty after a while out?
Upson 7
Greer 7
Ward 7.5 - really is a dependable player
JFC - 6.5
Ince - 8 - really growing in confidence, glad Bridcutt came in alongside rather than instead of
Crofts - 6.5
Conway 7 - mixed game, some really poor touches but also a couple of good driving runs, always released it a beat too late though it seemed
Lopez 6
Barnes 8 - MoM. WHAT a strike. Natural finisher.

Thought Ward had his best game in the stripes inc some bridge like rampaging down the wing. Lopez was quiet again and Greer have the ball away in dangerous positions a few times on the back of that Wigan blunder last week. However, Andrews took the prize for the worst player off the day and wasn't even on that long. Thought Barnes had one of his quietest games in recent form but got his goal - funny old game!!
What Conway needs is someone to centre the ball to (i.e. LU), Dave was pants, Ince was formidable in the first half, hardly surprising that Bridcutt and Orlandi aren't match fit, Our passing generally was poor because of the way Bournemouth hustled the man on the ball (and as someone on here has already said it ain't rocket science - Howe isn't a footballing genius, he always sets his teams out to play in exactly the same way against us). In a game like this we really missed Ulloa, Cook and Elphick both had good games today and it would've been a different story with him on the pitch.

Koosh pulled off 2 very good saves and kept us in the game.
Conway was awful, he got in some good positions but did not put the ball in. When he did put the ball in, on 2 occasions 2nd half, why did he not pull it back to penalty spot area?
Ward got beaten too easily every time they attacked.
Calderon did not look at the races but was unlucky early on
Greer was his usual self, giving the ball away in dangerous positions.
Dave, what does he do? Pathetic display.
JFC looked out of sorts after giving them the free kick that led to their goal. What happened to the wall?
Barnes is always on a hiding to nothing as a lone striker but did a good job and a great goal
The rest of them, well just a normal day at the office

Ward and Ince stand out performers. We had a 20 minute spell after scoring where we playing very close to how I imagine Oscar wants us. We were pressing high up the pith and playing at a quick tempo.
Andrews was very disappointing when he came on. It seemed like he wanted to play where Bridcutt was and ended up sitting too deep, consequently contributing little to the side. Around this point our tempo and high pressing dropped and Bournemouth came back into the game.

Conway was OK yesterday, Andrews was awful, and warranted something like a 3.

Ward completely let Ritchie go for the chance in the 1st half that PIG clawed away - dreadful defending, however he was probably our best player 2nd half.
SULLY COULDNT SHOOT
Loyal2Family+Albion!
We werent at our best.
Ince had a great game. Barnes scored a great goal. Ward did well and Upson lucky. Everybody else Ok except Conway who flattered to decieve and Andrews who didnt add anything to the game. oh and JFC was hassled out of the game. He still wnts too much time and BFC didny give him it. Right for him to go off at arvo.

Well done Mellotron. Quality wind-up
1 goal every 2.5 games, plenty of those games from defensive left midfield. That goal was the work of a natural finisher.

TK set the wall up, then proceeded to stand behind it rather than in the space not covered by the wall...... a real faux pas.
It's a goal every 3 and a bit games (surely you knew that) and in the Championship about 1 in 4.5. That goal is not an example of a natural finisher.
If you played the game for a while you would recognise one.
This is in no way a criticism of him though as he has done well recently just correcting your post.
