    Player Ratings
    Jon McLaughlin, 9/10: Absolutely excellent once again.
    Reece James, 6/10: Seemed to play more negatively in the second half and didn’t threaten as much, but was generally alright regardless.
    Jimmy Dunne, 8/10: Scored our goal and swept up long balls whenever they came forward. A great all-round performance.
    Jack Baldwin, 6/10: Fundamental defensive duties were good but he seemed to try a bit too hard to be a ball-playing defender at times, which often resulted him giving away possession rather poorly.
    Adam Matthews, 4/10: Struggled massively in the opening exchanges of the first half and didn’t contribute an awful lot to our attacking motions,
    Max Power, 5/10: Alright, I guess?
    Grant Leadbitter, 6/10: Swung in our first decent corner since the Stone Age but many of his other deliveries weren’t great.
    Aiden McGeady, 6/10: Didn’t do an awful lot wrong during our attacking motions, but ultimately he didn’t come up with much today.
    George Honeyman, 6/10: One of those games where he’s a very steady, unremarkable 6.
    Lewis Morgan, 7/10: Replicated his solid debut last week. Made all the right decisions going forward
    Will Grigg, 6/10: Put the keeper under pressure when he could but ultimately the service to him was non-existent.
    Charlie Wyke, 6/10: Hold up play was canny.
    Lynden Gooch, 6/10: Would’ve liked us to have been more positive so we could’ve seen more from him.
    Luke O’Nien, 5/10: Bit daft.
    Man of the Match: Jon McLaughlin

    Even maybe Oviedo in as well we need to attack teams to beat them and we are not creating enough chances with this mid field, so something must change, if we are to get nine points from our next three games which is a must imo.

    i was expecting exactly the same.

    Is 9 points points enough ?, etc Barnsley play next sat at home then 19th Feb Tues at home like us, this season is gone for us now as we cannot score like Barnsley and Luton, and Ross cannot get his subs right or starting line up right. This has been going on since the f a cup game at Walsall, it seems I was right about Barnsley being the best team in the league. The game at Barnsley next month will decide it anyhow. We might as well win and lose till the end of the season instead of frigging drawing.

    But you're always right Monty :emoticon-0139-bow: <whistle><whistle>

    Not one to whinge cause right now we ain’t good enough but that’s a foul by Sinclair when he runs across the back of Dunne. He’s caught his leg and it’s a trip. JR needs to make some changes methinks - o9 and Oviedo in to fullbacks or wing backs with 3 centre halfs. Catts or McGeoch for Power.

    I want Jose/Klopp/Pep in at 9am on Monday morning or there will be hell on. No foul and bad defending I am afraid. Only joking lads, jack is ok the players will gel and we will go up. Pompey vs Barnsley on the 23rd Feb man.
