21 Steer - 6.5 - little to do 20 Solly - 7 - best game I have seen from him in a while. Looked decent going forward like the Solly of old. 6 Pearce - 7 - comfortable, largely untroubled and repeating the obvious, leads tremendously. 23 Sarr - 7 - comfortable and untroubled. Not particularly worried at Bauer's loss to be honest. 3 Page - 7 - Good display albeit a little sloppy at times. Is a good crosser of the ball, something we don't really have at the minute. 24 Cullen - 6.5 - Decent display without doing too much 17 Aribo - 8 - Ran the game, especially in the first half. Shaded by Grant for MOTM 16 Ward - 6 - works hard but didn't do anything going forward. 12 Reeves - 7.5 - Always hoped he could be a big player, is he starting to show this now, looks like it 18 Ahearne-Grant - 8 MOTM - Got the goals which got us the three points. Decision making is still a little suspect, but I am sure that will develop 9 Taylor - 6.5 - minus .5 for a poor missed penalty. Really good foil for Grant and them two are causing defenders headaches. With Igor aswell, we have quality upfront, I can't remember the last time we said that.
21 Steer6.5 decent keeper 20 Solly6.5 got better as game went on. 6 Pearce 7 great leader. 23 Sarr 6.5 sublime, bad, good, ugly, all this in 90 minutes from the nabster ! 3 Page 6 control let him down today 24 Cullen 6.5 tidy player. 17 Aribo7.5 lovely two footed player. 16 Ward 6 worked hard and will do better. 12 Reeves 8.kept trying to make things happen, fit as a butchers dog. 18 Grant 8 at last the real Karlan has arrived 9 Taylor 7.5 led line well but loses point for penalty miss.
21 Steer 6.5 did what he had to, no chance for goal 20 Solly 7.5 had a Brucey 6 Pearce 7.5 we need him to stay fit! 23 Sarr 7 Fairly tidy few accidents.... 3 Page 6.5 Good going forward, less so defensively 24 Cullen 7 better 1st half than second 17 Aribo 7.5 best game this season for him 16 Ward 7 works hard, passionate, he'll prove to be a good signing, bit of a Clarke 12 Reeves 8 looked more like the player who used to frustrate us when playing for MK Dons 18 Ahearne Grant 8 if his decision making improves he's got potential to be one hell of a player 9 Taylor 8 work rate is incredible, best striker since Yann, we'll miss him when he's on a ban shortly.
Steer: 7 - Unlucky for the goal, just before the header took a step to his left so was never going to readjust to get back Solly: 7 - Typical Solly, didnt put a foot wrong today, he's well and truly back to his best Pearce: 7.5 - Him and Sarr dealt well with Lapado today Sarr: 7 - Would have marked a lot higher but for his two mistakes, another opposition and that could have hurt us today Page: 7 - Worked tirelessly down the left, put in some lovely crosses, unfortunate to be out jumped for the goal Cullen: 7.5 - Get a .5 for his tackle at the edge of the area, played some lovely passes Aribo: 8 - Just misses out on MOTM for me, great first half, dithered a few times in the box late in the second Ward: 8 (MOTM) - Billy Clarke might struggle to get back into the side if Ward continues to play like that Reeves: 7 - Is a much better player to the one we saw under Robinson Ahearne-Grant: 8 - Two marks for the goals, could and should maybe have had a hat-trick though Taylor: 7.5 - Unlucky with the penalty, sometimes its just not your day in front of goal
Referee: 8 - I thought he had an excellent game, never really had any big decisions to make... thought he was right to not give us any penalties in the second half, maybe could have booked their Goalkeeper for time wasting (that does only happen to Charlton Goalkeepers though) yet didnt well to pull him to one side early in the second half about it
21 Steer 6 had nothing to do, no chance for goal 20 Solly 6.5 solid 6 Pearce 7.5 normal steady game 23 Sarr 7 some great passes interspersed with the occasional defensive lapse. 3 Page 6.5 did ok 24 Cullen 6 didnt notice him 17 Aribo 7.5 did well, his ability to beat his man at ease will be a real benefit. 16 Ward 6 as Cullen 12 Reeves 8 played well - incisive passes 18 Ahearne Grant 7.5 did nothing except score 2 goals ! 9 Taylor 7 good player.
21 Steer 7 Not too much to do 20 Solly 7 Probably his best game so far this season 6 Pearce 7 Battled well, silly free kicks given away in their box 23 Sarr 7 Looks so composed at times but prone to a couple of mistakes a game 3 Page 7.5 Offered a lot going forward 24 Cullen 7.5 Impressive, used the ball well 17 Aribo 7 Excellent first half, some wrong decision making in the second 16 Ward 7 When back to full fitness will be a key player 12 Reeves 8 His best game for us, at last! 18 Ahearne-Grant 7.5 Deserved his 2 goals, works hard 9 Taylor 7 A handful, poor penalty though
Ref D Whitestone 8 Best ref at the Valley for a while
21 Steer - 7 - Little to do, but was keen to get things going from the back. 20 Solly - 7 - Steady game, seemed more his reliable self. 6 Pearce - 7.5 - Being captain suits his game, he leads by example. 23 Sarr - 8 - I thought he had a very good game. 3 Page - 7.5 - Got forward well....their goal was scored from his "zone" again though. 24 Cullen - 8 - Really like the look of this fella. 17 Aribo - 8 - Oozes class at times. The similarities with a young Patrick Viera continue. 16 Ward - 8 - Such a busy player, although would rather see him wider than central. 12 Reeves - 8.5 - Best I've see him play...match was played at his tempo in the 2nd half. 18 Ahearne-Grant - 8 - Should've had 4 goals, but he got 2 so I'll take that! 9 Taylor - 7.5 - Tried his best. I understand why he took the penalty like that....shame keeper got a big hand to it.
Ref: D Whitestone - 6 - Erratic! Sometimes good, sometimes weird!
21 Steer 7. Nothing to do and he did nothing very well indeed.
20 Solly 7. Good coming forward but despite AFKA’s explanation I still think he was culpable for their goal by backing offand allowing the cross
6 Pearce 8. Very solid
23 Sarr 7. More Bambi than Baresi today but I expect he is more effective than he looks
3 Page 7. Thought he did very well. Crossing could maybe have been a little better but he wasn’t the only one guilty in that department.
24 Cullen 7. Adds a touch of class to the midfield and allows others to play. He’s much better than league 1 and we are lucky to have him.
17 Aribo 7. Excellent first half, not quite so good second. Languid style makes him look slower at times than he really is.
16 Ward 6.5. Clearly not match fit but when he is he’ll be a right hand full.
12 Reeves 8.5. MOM. This display was as impressive as it was unexpected. Keep fit please and keep this up.
18 Ahearne-Grant 7. Excellent first half. Seemed to start the second low in confidence for some reason. I’d have had him off after an hour which shows why LB is manager and I’m not.
9 Taylor 7. wasn’t generally his day but never gave up or hid after the penalty miss. An absolute pain in the arse. We’ve needed one of those for a long time.
21 Steer 7 could do nothing about the goal 20 Solly 7.5 can’t help but admire him 6 Pearce 8.5 so solid so competitive 23 Sarr 7 filled in well for BFG had the usual couple of moment but he can play football 3 Page 6.5 not his best game carrying a knock I believe 24 Cullen 8 Good engine box to box 17 Aribo 8.5 still improving do like the lad daft hair cut 16 Ward 7 has real value not fully fit yet 12 Reeves 9.5 simply MoM he looked like that annoying little blond twat that used to play for MK Dons 18 Ahearne-Grant 7 two good goals and now carries the threat of real pace and scoring goals 9 Taylor 8.5 great centre forward the best since Kermy

24 Cullen 6.5 tidy player.
17 Aribo7.5 lovely two footed player.
16 Ward 6 worked hard and will do better.

18 Grant 8 at last the real Karlan has arrived
9 Taylor 7.5 led line well but loses point for penalty miss.
20 Solly 7.5 had a Brucey
6 Pearce 7.5 we need him to stay fit!
23 Sarr 7 Fairly tidy few accidents....
3 Page 6.5 Good going forward, less so defensively
24 Cullen 7 better 1st half than second
17 Aribo 7.5 best game this season for him
16 Ward 7 works hard, passionate, he'll prove to be a good signing, bit of a Clarke
12 Reeves 8 looked more like the player who used to frustrate us when playing for MK Dons
18 Ahearne Grant 8 if his decision making improves he's got potential to be one hell of a player
9 Taylor 8 work rate is incredible, best striker since Yann, we'll miss him when he's on a ban shortly.
Solly: 7 - Typical Solly, didnt put a foot wrong today, he's well and truly back to his best
Pearce: 7.5 - Him and Sarr dealt well with Lapado today
Sarr: 7 - Would have marked a lot higher but for his two mistakes, another opposition and that could have hurt us today
Page: 7 - Worked tirelessly down the left, put in some lovely crosses, unfortunate to be out jumped for the goal
Cullen: 7.5 - Get a .5 for his tackle at the edge of the area, played some lovely passes
Aribo: 8 - Just misses out on MOTM for me, great first half, dithered a few times in the box late in the second
Ward: 8 (MOTM) - Billy Clarke might struggle to get back into the side if Ward continues to play like that
Reeves: 7 - Is a much better player to the one we saw under Robinson
