Amos: 7 Konsa: 6 not a right back as he doesn't naturally know when to attack Bauer: 8 Pearce: 8 DaSilva: 5 not sure if Mavididi's performance affected him but poor on occassions Kashi: 5 good in parts but bad in parts Reeves: 4 back to his meh performances Forster-Caskey: 6 best midfielder today but again gives the ball away cheaply. Mavididi: 4 needs to work out its a team game and pass to his team mates kept running into trouble Magennis: 4 not great today won some headers but up against two very good centre backs. Ajose: 5 worked hard but needs better service Fosu-Henry: 5 little cameo of what he can do but more effective than Mavididi.
Amos: 7.5 - Best player Konsa: 6 Bauer: 7 Pearce: 7 DaSilva: 8 Kashi: 5 Reeves: 4 Forster-Caskey: 6 Mavididi: 5 - sometimes dangerous, but also lost the ball repeatedly instead of playing the easy ball. Magennis: 6 Ajose: 5 - just couldn't get on the ball. Fosu-Henry: 6 - most dangerous player.
Amos: 8 Absolute quality at this level. Safe and reliable and one tricky save. 3 keepers would not have saved that goal.
Konsa: 6
Bang average. Just don't see the ball playing skills that he gets bigged up for. Lacks technique.
Bauer: 7
Solid. Would have scored if had attempted some kind of bicycle kick or flying volley rather than trying to kick a good chance over his head with his feet still on the ground. Not going to slate a centre back for that though.
Pearce: 7 Solid, dependable.
DaSilva: 9
The best player on the pitch by a country mile. 2nd game in a row he has looked on a different planet.
Kashi: 5 We got absolutely bossed in centre midfield so although he didn't make mistakes due to his lack of presence, the game was lost on midfield so he has to be marked down.
Reeves: 3
I want to give him 1 but that would be biased. He is awful. Not fit for Sunday league. Average league one technique. A total liability. I usually love luxury players but this is one with no added ability. Be slow as a carthorse if you have great vision or ball control....Reeves has neither.
Forster-Caskey: 6.5
Slightly more imposing than Kashi but still responsible for getting battered in the middle. Does put a hell of a shift in.
Mavididi: 4
Would be a great 100m runner. Never a footballer. Poor mans Walcott.
Magennis: 6
Lots of involvement but he finishes like the goalkeeper he is. Big unit but can't run and can't play football.
Ajose: 7
Flashes of real ability. Don't judge him on workrate, we have Magennis to jog about making foolish fouls. 3 instances of real class on the ball.
Fosu-Henry: 7
Massive impact for a sub. Tried to do too much. Has to have a good game for us to have any chance in the return leg.
Amos: 7 Konsa: 6 Bauer: 8 Pearce: 7 DaSilva: 6.5 good first half faded second Kashi: 6 done okay but prone to giving away needless fouls Reeves: 4 woeful Forster-Caskey: 6 Mavididi: 5.5 tried but Shrewsbury knew what he was about Magennis: 6.5 done what he could with poor service at times Ajose: 6.5 as above Fosu-Henry: 6.5 dangerous player, hopefully fit for 2nd leg
Aribo: n/a Zyro: n/a
I just wanna say that I don't have some vendetta against Reeves, he IS a good player but imo last night, he was terrible.
Amos: 7.5 - So commanding Konsa: 5 - not a RB Bauer: 8 - Rock Solid Pearce: 8 - Ditto DaSilva: 7.5 - Probably Motm but loses a point for some god awful cross field balls that put us in trouble Kashi: 6 - Didn't get a kick Reeves: 4 - gave the ball away a lot Forster-Caskey: 4 - Picked a great game to turn in his worst CAFC performances Mavididi: 3 - Fuck off back to Arsenal, you're shit Magennis: 6 - few good flicks and headers, should've hit the target early doors Ajose: 6 - Too isolated but tried really hard Fosu-Henry:6 - better team with him, needs to start sunday
Amos: 7 Konsa: 7 Bauer: 8 Pearce: 8 DaSilva: 7 Kashi: 4 sloppy in possession Reeves: 4 Forster-Caskey: 7 Mavididi: 3 tried all the tricks and flicks yet didn't actually get the ball under and beat his man once Magennis: 6 Ajose: 6 Fosu-Henry: 6
Amos: 8 mr consistently quality Konsa: 5 not a right back, got a nosebleed every time he entered the final third Bauer: 7 bit of a beast at the back now Pearce: 6 DaSilva: 8 easily one of our best players, if he was a few inches taller he’d be near the Chelsea first team. Like watching solly in his prime but with actual genuine pace. Kashi: 6 broke up play well, gave the ball away a few times though Reeves: 5.5 first ten minutes looked like a man possessed but quickly burnt out Forster-Caskey: 6 decent but think he was the one that was meant to be tracking Nolan when he scored Mavididi: 6.5 first ten mins looked like prem quality until they stuck about 3 men on him and then was anonymous Magennis: 6 did his best considering service Ajose: 5 if he doesn’t get service he’s like having no one, can’t hold it up and not great in the air, not especially nippy either Fosu-Henry: 6.5 if he’s fit enough to start Sunday he could be the difference. A player who can come up with a moment of magic.
Amos: 7 - nothing he could do about the goal. came out for crosses which he duly dealt with Konsa: 6 - gets a bit confused in his positioning. played ok but he is no full back and certainly not a wing back. Bauer: 7.5 - some towering headers. solid against a psychical side. Pearce: 7.5 - physical challenges a plenty in this one and he gave his fair share. again solid. DaSilva: 7 - most of what he did was great but he does get caught out a little at the back. still he was a threat and won most of his defensive battles. Kashi: 4.5 - started well with some great tackles. as the game went on he lost his earlier pace and was treading water by the end. couldn't keep up with their midfield and gave the ball away far too much in second half which stopped any momentum through the middle to even create an attack. Reeves: 4 - first half an hour he did some good things, crosses and such. then he went back to this player who I've seen enough of. loses possession, gets out muscled and contributes little to the cause. i dont agree with some oh here, you can chuck criticism for his actual performance out there but I think its harsh to say he didn't try cos he did. its just his trying might not be good enough. Forster-Caskey: 6 - did well in first half and was average in second. struggled to link up with anyone. put a shift in but he seemed to be overrun in the middle. he would tackle a player but then the ball would somehow find another of their players. Mavididi: 6 - skipped pasted their defenders on occasion. linked up well with Da Silva. he struggled to create anything for himself or others. Magennis: 6 - won the ball a lot but as always he never gets the ball to feet or in space where I think he is more of threat. however our system and the players we have at our disposal he never will have that chance. Ajose: 5.5 - he runs around. like a poor mans Simon church. still yet to see any reason apart from desperation to keep him next season. Fosu-Henry: 6 - shame him and mavididi didn't pay together. they might of created space for others and Shrewsbury always made sure that both players were double marked.
Amos: 7.5 Solid made some really good saves had no chance with the goal Konsa: 6 Didn't look totally comfortable still don't think he's a full back Bauer: 8 really solid, bossed the penalty area and was effective at corners Pearce: 7.5 Not quite as good as the BFG but played a captains game DaSilva: 7 Can get caught but his quality on the ball is at a higher level, love this kid Kashi: 5 Played OK in the first half, went walkabout in the second half Reeves: 4 Tried but is too negative and lacks pace/strength would prefer Marshall Forster-Caskey: 6 Should really have scored early and wasn't his best game I somehow feel he plays better when Kashi is not playing Mavididi: 3 Can't seem to get the ball from out of his own feet, runs into blind alleys, he's not a winger don't play him there Magennis: 6 tried hard, some good layoffs, could have scored but faded from the game Ajose: 6 huge amount of effort but he's a channel runner who needs someone who can lay the ball into his feet Fosu-Henry 6 Always dangerous a fully fit Fosu would make all the difference he is our best attacking player
My marks are probably a little higher than most and that's because it was a tight game that we could have won have won so I am not going to put too much of a downer on the performance
Amos: 7 Konsa: 4 idiotic decisions at times Bauer: 7 Pearce: 7 DaSilva: 7 Kashi: 4 fouls in ridiculous areas of the pitch, liability. Reeves: 3 wasn't interested, gutless Forster-Caskey: 8 shame hes not back playing DM where he runs the show, drop Kashi!!!!! Mavididi: 3 Slowly walking off when we are losing at home, go away and be a rapper or whatever you want to be. Magennis: 7 Battled Ajose: 4 couldnt arsed again. get nearer to magennis and you might win some of his flick ons. Fosu-Henry:6 - meh
Amos: 6.5 - couple of good claims, but otherwise didn't have much to do. Konsa: 6 - Not a RB Bauer: 6 - Decent, but sometimes his distribution was a long ball. Pointless. Pearce: 7 - Solid, and played the ball out well. DaSilva: 8 - The only player to drive at them, and looked dangerous. Kashi: 5 - Not at his best. Reeves: 4 - Awful player. Not sure what he adds to the team. Forster-Caskey: 6 - decent game. Mavididi: 6 - Tricky customer, but needs to be less obvious with his decisions. Magennis: 5.5 - tried to win every ball played to him, but wasn't really in the game at all. Ajose: 6.5 - Felt sorry for him, he was feeding on scraps. Had a very good first 20 mins. Fosu-Henry: 5.5 - Didn't really have a chance to impact the game.
