Cardiff City player ratings as January signings and Aaron Ramsey shine
Jak Alnwick 7
Made a really good save to deny Hirakawa in the second half. Looked reasonably solid all afternoon.
Andy Rinomhota 6

Plenty of endeavour, but didn't quite reach the level of previous performances. Subbed.
Dimitrios Goutas 7
Had a couple of wobbles against Armstrong one-on-one, but made some good contributions at the back.
Joel Bagan 7
Made a number of really crucial clearances and blocks when needed most.
Callum O'Dowda 7
Looked lively on the left-hand side. Made a couple of promising runs. End product wasn't always there, but linked up reasonably well with others.
Will Alves 7 - STAR MAN
A lively presence in the final third throughout. Was at the heart of what was an improved second-half performance.
Sivert Mannsverk 7
Pinged balls at will for much of the afternoon. Didn't always come off for him, but a useful outlet in the middle. Subbed.
Anwar El Ghazi 6
Got himself in some really good positions, but didn't really produce much in the way of end product. Subbed.
Rubin Colwill 7
Drove through the park really nicely at times. Occasionally turned into trouble, but a lively showing nonetheless.
Perry Ng 6
Battled all afternoon, but wasn't quite as influential as previous showings.
Callum Robinson 6
Didn't get much of a sniff for much of the game, but did okay in the build-up. Subbed.
Subs:
Aaron Ramsey (on for Rinomhota 63) - Played his part in the goal. A promising cameo - 7
Yousef Salech (on for Robinson 71) - Took his goal really well - 7
Chris Willock (on for El Ghazi 71) - Nothing to take issue with, but a fairly quiet outing - 6
Cian Ashford (on for Mannsverk 81) - Grabbed an assist late on - 7
