Giving Westbrooke a 7, really? Kelly showed him how it should’ve been done in the first half.
I give him 7 for the same reason mateHe'd have been a six but for stepping up and putting away the penalty for the win. Was much better second half.
Can’t argue with that spot on,kelly & McFadzean give us identity Max & Godden will workAgree with most of the above.
Having McFaz and Kelly on the pitch is so important for leadership.
Biamou was brilliant in leading the line.
O'Hare much more influential in the middle.
An upfront combination of Max and Godden in a 3-5-2 could have lots of potential.
Hiwula needs to be taken out of the firing line to discover some confidence.
Giving Westbrooke a 7, really? Kelly showed him how it should’ve been done in the first half.
he was head and shoulders ahead of Shipley and walsh and scored the winner. a 7 at least
Marosi 7 - A couple of important saves in the first half, distribution improved greatly after half time
Dabo 7 - Aside from one indiscretion in the second half I thought he looked solid, still want to see more from him going forwards though
Rose 5.5 - Hard to isolate which of the two centre-halves were at fault for their chances, so they get the same score. Weren't good enough in possession in the first half, needed to be much quicker and snappier to get the team on the front foot, rather than hopeful looking balls
Hyam 5.5 - See Rose
McCallum 7.5 - Grew as the game went on and was our best player in the second half. Looked like they targeted him early on but he stood up to it relatively well, was calm to help see the game out
Walsh 5 - They did a job on him in the first half and he was anonymous, not surprised to see him get hooked
Shipley 5 - Had more of the ball than Walsh but was wasteful with it
Westbrooke 6 - No better than Walsh or Shipley in the first half but helped provide a spark in the second half and was still hurtling around in the last minute, stuck pen away well
Hiwula 5 - Anonymous, apart from to collect the ball in the left-back area - was starved of service so don't lay the blame completely at his feet
O'Hare 6 - Tries his heart out but needs to get in the hole more often to provide an outlet, looks a bit leggy at the minute I think a rest may do him some good or to come off the bench for a game or two
Bakayoko 5.5 - No lack of effort but not a great deal of quality there, his finish was an easy one but when bereft of confidence (after a spanking by MR In the media) it'd have been easy to sky it
McFadzean 6 - Spent ten minutes being an utter liability when we could've conceded a couple of goals but was a presence to help us see it out
Biamou 7 - Still looked under cooked but ran his socks off as you'd expect and linked the play better than Bakayoko did, penalty looked a smidge dubious from my angle but happy to take it
Kelly 8 - I don't know how he ended up with a bit more time and space than Walsh did but he got on the ball far more and helped join the play up, team grew in confidence with him on the park
Robins 7 - Fair play for not hanging about and changing things up, can't ask for much more on that front. Baffled by the combination of tactics and selection in the first half though, they could've been 3-0 up at half time and I wouldn't have complained too hard - onwards and upwards though! Three points at Peterborough on Saturday and the picture is really rosy again.
Completely disagree, not good enough imo. Anonymous most games and too lightweight. At least Walsh picks the odd good pass, Westbrooke can’t even do that. I don’t even know what his attributes are.he was head and shoulders ahead of Shipley and walsh and scored the winner. a 7 at least
Yep Hiwula deffo better second half than the first.Needs to be split over both halves.

Agree that Shipley was also poor. Problem with both Westbrooke and Shipley is that they are 10 a penny midfielders. They’ll do a job but they haven’t got that that creativity that players like Marcus Maddison have to unlock a door. We need someone who is willing to get on the ball and provide a bit of steel in the middle, as Kelly demonstrated expertly in the second half. They just haven’t got enough about them at this current moment imo. I’m sure Westbrooke will improve over time though.Decent debate and appreciate the lack of insults in discussing it. I didn’t see anything from Walsh or Shipley tonight and kept seeing westbrooke want the ball and pushing fwd..don’t think he should be ahead of Kelly, but he showed himself tonight and didn’t hide. Telling that Shipley went off at HT.
Marosi - 9- great fucking saves, kept us in it first half
Dabo - 10- won everything, our best player
Rose - 7
Hyam - 7
McCallum - 8
Walsh - 6
Shipley - 5
Westbrooke - 7 (fair fucking bollocks stepping up for the pen)
Hiwula - 3
O'Hare - 7
Baka - 7
Biamou - 8
McFadz - 8
Kelly- 9 leader
Shipley I feel is very limitedAgree that Shipley was also poor. Problem with both Westbrooke and Shipley is that they are 10 a penny midfielders.

Spot on analysis - will upset the let’s give an 8 for winning a penalty brigade
Disagree but Kelly is the key. Walsh, Shipley, Westbrooke all young and learning, all look better next to Kelly. Ohare is the one who offers something different.Shipley I feel is very limited
Don’t know what game you watched. Walsh lost the ball yet again for their goal hit numerous passes to nobody. It wasn’t by coincidence that suddenly we started to play really well the moment Walsh left the field. In my view Walsh has been a liability for the last 3 games as it generally takes he 20 minutes before he settles down. Good player in the making but Kelly showed him up tonight.Completely disagree, not good enough imo. Anonymous most games and too lightweight.
