Some really good performances there tonight and some excellent match changing moments. Yes King Kone got the goals but also sheer class from GMac - that’s twice in three games from him - good game from Leahy especially after picking up that early card and Skura settled well into the game after shaky start. COYB
Because Kone will win hands down I went for Humphreys, who could have had a hat-trick, was creating some brilliant chances for others and almost always was in the right place to play a creative ball forward.
Kone was immense today, but I equally thought Scowen, Humphreys, Grimmer & Skura put great shifts in.
Leahy had his moments and some really good free kicks & corners.
Other than the inexplicable trying to head the ball 2 ft off the ground moment Bradley was dependebly solid.
Bakinson started well but seemed to get slower & slower as the game went on & was surpeised he wasn't replaced earlier.
Westergard did ok, but is clearly off the pace at the moment & I suspect will take a few more weeks to get to full match fitness & also building that understanding with those around him; was slightly surprised that it wasn't Butcher to replace Bakinson tbf.
Fred was frustrating but did have some good meoments, GMac is now very much an impact sub & did he have an impact. Kodua, Luballa, Udoh all were ok.
I am hoping this win over a decent enough side restores some confidence in the team as that is what seems to have been lacking since before Christmas - as Gaz used to say "Believe"
Because I was in the corner to see the cross and don't want to add to The King's value, I went for Gmac. Excellent bit of quality. Honorable mentions for Fred and Dan Udoh.
I could watch Scowen against Burton over and over again. An absolute masterclass in midfield to the point I can’t work out how anyone voted for someone else.

Not even a contest is it??
Is there any point?
not really. THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR* MAN.
*choice of currency may be deliberately inaccurate
It'll be the main man and deservedly so. Thought Scowen and Skura and Humphreys were also excellent.

Scowen, Kone got the goals.. but Josh absolutely dominated and run that game !

There is always a point - and @Konetheming has already voted for Leahy to prove not everyone sees things the same way!

King Kone
Humphreys movement was superb all game but so was Kone’s. Shout for Udoh who was also excellent with his workrate tonight.

G Mac = game changer !
Obviously The King. But I did think Udoh was terrific tonight, hassled their back line constantly while he was on. Humphreys is also some player.
Skura for a young player plays with such confidence and assurance.
Kone. Easy.
That said, Gareth McCleary, I bloody love you.
But we did beat Mansfield away as well and they are a very decent side.
The four greatest ever MOTM performances by total votes have all happened this season:
