Amos: 6 Not much to do really. Solly: 6 Konsa: 7 Pearce: 6 DaSilva: 8 Despite the score, he was superb Aribo: 7 Marshall:5 Forster-Caskey: 5 Reeves: 7 Getting better Best: 6 Magennis: 5
Amos: 7 - Didnt have much to do; couldnt do a lot about the goals Solly: 6 - Better from him today yet most of our attacking play went through the Left Konsa: 6.5 - Did well on the ball and showed how good he'll be one day Pearce: 5 - Should have played Sarr, he was awful Dasilva: 7 (MOTM) - He should be playing in the Premier League now!! Aribo: 7 - He's doing well seeing he's unexpectedly come into the squad Forster-Caskey: 6 - Not a bad performance, had one chance at the edge of the box too powder puff Marshall: 4 - One of the worst wingers I've seen at this level, certainly not one of the best Reeves: 6 - (Plus one mark for the second half); Finally got to see what the fuss was about Best: 5 - Great goal, wrong net... Wasted a few good chances to amend for his error Magennis: 5 - Robinson your moaning about not having Strikers yet when you do have two on the pitch, play them as Strikers!!
Amos: idk...6? didn't have to do anything really, distribution was ok Solly: 5.5 gave it away quite freely Konsa: 7 did ok today Pearce: 6 quite a few errors, including the crucial free kick, and for what it's worth he also screwed up for the second goal DaSilva: 8 MOM our best player for the 890248023rd week running Aribo: 7.5 actually thought he drove us forward really well in the second half Marshall: 2 and lucky to get that. I don't usually mark players this low but holy shit. Forster-Caskey: 6.5 idiotic booking but did ok Reeves: 6.5 an enigma. had our best chance and looked very tidy in the second half, but couldn't conjure a goal Best: 6 another enigma. we looked MUCH better with him on, dropping deep to collect the ball and launch attacks, but he couldn't get on the end of it in the box, and when he did he skied it Magennis: 5.5 not a winger, couple of decent balls in mind
Found a steam to watch..... Amos:6 Solly:7 Konsa: 3 Sell him whilst we can! Very poor reading of the game. Pearce: 7 DaSilva:5 Aribo: 7 Marshall: 5 Forster-Caskey: 5 went missing Reeves: 7 done well Best: 6 unlucky Magennis: 5 poor again. Needs support
Clarke (injured) n/a Ahearne-Grant: n/a
How people are rating konsa so highly is shocking. Solly and Pearce covered him all match. Look at a neautrals point of view (news shopper article) and he has the worst rating there too. Miiiiiles off Gomes's talent.
Amos - 6 Solly - 6 Usual commited self. Isn't as good going forward as he used to be though. We need him to bomb on more Konsa - 7 Completely disagree with the above. Best and most composed CB at the club. Pearce - 6 Da Silva - 7 Class act every week Aribo - 7 got better as the game went on and Blackburn tired after playing midweek in the cup Marshall - 5 Would like to think he is better than we saw today. Crossing was poor and he never takes on his man. Needs to get balls in quick. By the time he eventually gets the ball over all our players are stationary rather than running on to knock in crosses Forster-Caskey - 7 Again I'm at odds with JorgeCosta13s view. He played deeper than usual in the absence of Kashi but did well & in my opinion is a POTY contender Reeves - 7 MOM (6 1st half, 8 2nd half). Should have burried his chance just before HT though. Best - 5 Too early to write him off but he doesn't look the answer Magennis - 5 We need him to keep the ball up the pitch rather than keep bringing it back to our full backs
Amos: 6 Didn't have a great deal to do no chance with 1st the 2nd was academic Solly: 6 steady Konsa: 6 overplays it too much for my liking will get himself hurt soon Pearce: 6.5 good to have him back adds experience and leadership DaSilva: 7 too good for this league gets forward with confidence Aribo: 6.5 tidy and effective without pulling up trees Marshall: 5 poor can't seem to get past his man delivery poor rightly subbed off Forster-Caskey: 6 usual steady Eddie Reeves: 6 missed a sitter -1 otherwise could have been mom Best: 5.5 shows flashes of what he was. Great goal shame wrong end Magennis: 5 even in his international position nothing going for him Aherne - Grant n/a came on for Marshall but not a winger ffs
Amos: 7 - Claimed well. Is quietly having a very good season. His kicking is erratic, and it's probably part of the reason why he's down here, but I have a lot of time for him.
Solly: 6 - Meh. He was alright but Clarke was hurt running back to cover for him after his man got around him. We need someone who is going to push him and give him a rest, whether that's Konsa, Dijksteel, or a player in in January.
Konsa: 7.5 - Contrary to what is said above, I think his pace bailed Pearce out a couple times. If you'd asked me which of our center backs was 20 and which was 29, I would have guessed him the elder.
Pearce: 4.5 - Some caveats: 1) I am not in the dressing room with him, or on the pitch with him or on the training ground with him, and that makes it almost impossible to measure his leadership skills, 2) this was his first start after ~10 weeks out and he looked rusty.
All that said, I thought he was very poor in the first half. I think he gets off far too easily sometimes because we know he'll stick his head in and match an attacker for physicality. The problem is, he's poor with the ball at his feet, he's slow, he tends to drop too deep making us look disjointed, he gives away silly free kicks for holding attackers, and despite being a stick your head in at all costs, he's not as good in the air as Bauer or Sarr.
The free kick he gave away for the goal was ridiculous from such an experienced player. The booking he got was clearly him trying to make amends and he got dragged way out of position and made a silly lunging challenge near the touchline when he just had to stand the man up. And his distribution is poor. How much help would it have been to use Sarr's passing to try to break them down in the second half? Instead we had Pearce doing those little chipped balls forward which, even if they find Best/Magennis, we're not a team set up to play long back and win knock downs.
He wants to defend deep, defend in his own box backs against the wall style where his pace doesn't get exposed. That does not lend itself to how we play. He's not comfortable on the ball, which is very problematic given how we look to build from the back. And when you look at the second half, how much better did we look playing through JFC instead of lumping it long?
I'm sorry, for the way we play I think he's our fourth best center half. He may be great with the bantz, he may be pointy and shouty, but we look a worse side with him in it.
DaSilva: 8 - Yeah, he's quite good isn't he?
Aribo: 7.5 - He looked SO much better in the second half when JFC sat and he had the freedom to drive at them with the ball at his feet. How has he not gotten on when we've been chasing the game in the past? He looks like someone who could make something happen on his own. He still has some challenges positionally and in terms of reading the game, but today was a good reminder of the player we saw burst on to the scene around this time last year.
Marshall: 4 - He takes too many touches and his crossing is poor. He's had sort of a weird stop-start season where he went from playing no games due to injury to playing a lot. But he looks woefully out of form.
Forster-Caskey: 7 - Much better in the second half. Given his technical ability and passing he is well suited to sitting deep. I have no idea what he and Aribo were doing in the Portsmouth game and the first half of today. But the second half showed that if you have tactical discipline, you can influence a game. Yes they sat off of us, but every attack started with him.
Reeves: 7 - A good second half and the one who looked like he might have the quality to make the difference. He was poor in the first half, but some of that was down to us lumping the ball forward and him trying to feed off of scraps. Should have scored in the first half, but showed some lovely technique to create our best chance in the second with a turn in shot. And his dinked ball across goal to Best was good and should have resulted in more. You saw flashed of what he's capable of today. Now he needs to do it over 90 minutes.
Best: 6 - great nuisance, not a great footballer. To be fair to him, this is his third start of the calendar year. His technique was poor at times, BUT he did seem to link up play with the midfield better than Josh has in recent weeks. The way he created the chance for Reeves was wonderful. I think he's shown enough to be given a start or two during the Christmas period.
Magennis: 5.5 - It's weird because he's actually quite a good crosser of the ball, and he has played on the wing a fair amount for Killie and Norn Iron, but he's not suited to playing on the wing in this system, at least not for such a large part of the game.
Amos: 6 - Not much to do, the less said about his kicking the better Solly: 6 Generally solid, his lack of pace means he struggles to get forward well, defensively fine. Konsa: 5.5 Perhaps a harsh score, he just makes me nervous and got away with a couple of errors which Blackburn wasted. Pearce: 7.5 Thought he had a good game, some excellent headers and his distribution was reasonable. DaSilva: 7.5 He's quite good isn't he? Linked well with Aribo, argubably our best player this season. Aribo: 7.5 Excellent second half, one great run in particular. He wanted the ball and looked to control the game as opposed to a quiet first half Marshall: 5.5 Didn't come off for him today, got in some good positions but wasted most of them. He has something about him, but we've been waiting a while now Forster-Caskey: 5.5 Pretty quiet, didn't seem to have much time on the ball and a stupid yellow to go with it. Reeves: 6.5 I was very critical of him first half , go to ball rather than waiting for it and missed a sitter with a tame tame effort. To his credit second half he played really well with a touch of class about him, with time and space he's clearly a very good player. Best: 6 Generally speaking a handfull, he was invovled a lot, one clever pass to Reeves and creating a few moments out of nothing. However he does have this air of being a bit of a donkey. One monent sticks out, does really well to pinch it off the Blackburn CB, runs into the box with not much conviction and eventually does a slightly heavy touch leading to the defending sliding in. Worth a start IMO though. Magennis: 5 Not a left winger, however give us a bit more Josh please. Never ever looks like scoring, a long with some ordinary hold up play.
Amos: 6 Solid in goal but distribution very frustrating and this could make a big difference Solly: 6.5 worked hard as ever. Konsa: 6 Again did a central defenders job ok but struggled to bring the ball out of defence. Pearce: 6 Reasonably solid for first game back but again distribution let him down DaSilva:7 A class above Aribo: 6.5 I think we missed the presence of Kashi in midfield just lacked assurance Marshall:6.5 Not as bad as some make out in my opinion Forster-Caskey: 6 not a great game. Reeves: 7 Impressed with him 2nd half Best: 6 Good touches, lacking confidence Magennis:6 A big presence and worked hard.
