Referee 7 easy one for him Phillips: 7.5 some good saves at the end Dijksteel: 7 played well I thought Sarr: 7 dependable, did get beaten in the air for the second goal but nobody was looking for the second ball Stevenson: 6 could he not at least have scored that open goal Marshall: 7.5 MOM kept us going, looked lively and dangerous. Did also put in the worst cross of all time at one point though Reeves: 6 a bit rusty and misplaced a fair bit Clarke: 6.5 some nice touches Lapslie: 6 doesn't bring much about for all his endeavour Maloney: 5.5 one great block and a lot of not being ready Hackett-Fairchild: 5.5 some decent hold-up play failing to mask the fact he will never, ever, ever score Ajose: 5 just drifted through the game
Referee 6 missed clear penalty for them Phillips: 5 Didn’t make a case for a recall. Steer much better Dikjsteel 7 Did well lots of blocks Sarr: 6 usual mixed bag from Nabby Stevenson: 4 poor game Marshall: mom 8 very good game great attitude beat his man often Reeves: 5 a little off the pace Clarke: 6 getting touch back Lapslie: 5 tried hard Maloney: 5somr nice touches but lightweight Hackett-Fairchild: 3 waste of space Ajose: 1 get rid
Referee 5 looked pregnant, never seen such a fat ref and as a result miles off the play. Not a total shocker though
Philips - 6 couple of cracking saves, some awful distribution at times but ok
Djiksteel- 6 looked decent
Sarr - 7 looked more than decent
Stevenson - 6 should have scored
Marshall - 7 MOTM for me and most around me, playing at right wing back burnt his defender off loads of times, decent crosses in, one decent attempt: needed a goal or an assist for an 8
Reeves - 5 very lightweight and ineffective, leaden touch, rusty
Clarke - 6 looked really good for 69 min and then tired
Phillips: 6 Dijksteel: 8 excellent Sarr: 6.5 sublime and crass, as per Stevenson: 5 poor Marshall: 7 threatening but poor end product Reeves: 4 dire Clarke: 7.5 great to see him back Lapslie: 5 Maloney: 6 I think a better player than Lapslie Hackett-Fairchild: 6.5 some nice touches Ajose: 3 please go away. Diabolical
Referee - 5 looked a right miserable bugger Phillips: 7 some good stops 2nd half Dijksteel: 6 did ok Sarr: 6.5 for an hour he looked like Beckenbauer Stevenson: 5 tried but seems slow in his decision making Marshall: 7.5 not everything came off and unlucky with their first goal but tried to take it to them and defended doggedly Reeves: 4.5 oh dear, never fails to disappoint Clarke: 5.5 some classy moments Lapslie: 5 usual ebergy but a little untidy Maloney: 4 sorry son you don't look ready Hackett-Fairchild: 5 raw but something there Ajose: 4 see reeves
Referee 8 Controlled the game well best I've seen this season Phillips: 6 Not sure what happened with the first goal but he gave Marshal a rocket Dijksteel: 6.5 Best of the back four Sarr: 6 Mixed bag today from the Nabster Stevenson: 5 Not up to the pace of the game Marshall: 6 Another mixed bag did some good runs and crosses then spoils it with an og Reeves: 5.5 Not up to the pace of the game got mugged in front of our penalty box Clarke: 6 Getting back to where he was but not there yet Lapslie: 6 Usual energetic performance Maloney: 5 Not ready for senior football yet Hackett-Fairchild: 5 Tried hard but offered little threat another not ready Ajose: 5 Set up a couple of chances but all too often anonymous
Two soft goals of our own doing. Men against too many boys and the senior players didn't help their cause. We got what we deserved...….a cup exit. Now we can concentrate on the league.
Referee - 7: pretty good. Got his chubby frame around well Phillips: 7 - some good saves towards the end Dijksteel: 7 - strong, fast and reliable. Looks like he's never going to get a game in central midfield, notwithstanding our difficulties in that area Sarr: 7 - reasonably solid and some nice balls forward Stevenson: 4 - not ready for the first team. After a difficult start, his confidence levels deteriorated as the game went on although, in mitigation, he is not a left back Marshall: 9 - MOTM - defended well, had some excellent runs down the right and showed great determination and energy throughout. The only one of our players who really troubled Donny Reeves: 4.5 - really poor and wanted far too much time on the ball. Understandably rusty but his performance was reminiscent of his bad games last season. The 65 minutes should help him Clarke: 5.5 - some nice touches but not really able to influence the game. Good to get 90 minutes under his belt Lapslie: 6 - showed his usual energy and commitment but suffered from a lack of support and drive in midfield Maloney: 4.5 - showed a few nice touches but is not yet at the required level Hackett-Fairchild: 5 - a few skilful moments but he is too lightweight at present and needs to toughen up. An exceptionally heavy touch meant he squandered a really good opportunity just before their second goal Ajose: 4 - barely touched the ball and is far too weak. A very comfortable afternoon for Donny's central defenders.
By way of an aside, although he was only on the pitch for 10 minutes, I really liked the look of Sarpong-Wiredu.
Phillips: 6.5 some decent saves Dijksteel: 7 solid at cb Sarr: 7 Stevenson: 6 showed his inexperience but will learn Marshall: 6.5 beat his man loads but crossing was woeful. Stupid for their goal too Reeves: 6 verrry rusty Clarke: 5.5 I’m in a minority but just don’t “get” him. Never been impressed Lapslie: 6 keep wanting him to be the next Scott Parker but looooong way to go Maloney: 6 learning still Hackett-Fairchild: 6 ran about lots but posed no threat Ajose: 2 just fuck off Nick. You don’t want to be here, we don’t want you. Genuinely forgot you were on in 2nd half.
If I’d known we had no interest I wouldn’t have bothered. Plenty of stuff I could have done instead of watching that.
Referee. 7. Good game Phillips: 7.5. Made some excellent saves and distribution has improved Dijksteel: 7. A decent game in the centre of defence Sarr: 7.5. Good performance (despite one dodgy moment!) Stevenson: 5. Nervous start but improved in 2nd half. Missed open goal from 3 yards! Marshall: 7.5. Excellent last 20 mins Reeves: 6.5. A bit rusty but touches of class Clarke: 6.5. As with Reeves above Lapslie: 6. Reasonable performance Maloney: 4. Not ready for the senior team Hackett-Fairchild: 3.5. Again, nowhere ready for the senior team Ajose: 3.5. Contributed little, achieved even less!

Referee. 7. Did OK but hardly a difficult game to ref
Phillips: 7 Some good saves, no real fault with the goals Dijksteel: 7. Thought he did OK. Sarr: 7.5. Ditto Stevenson: 5. Found it difficult. Marshall: 8.5 - MOM by some distance, very lively and always a threat, probably his best performance in a Charlton shirt. Reeves: 5.5 Capable of much better. Clarke: 6 Needed the run out. Lapslie: 6.5. Always shows effort Maloney: 5 Needs more experience Hackett-Fairchild: 5 Some nice touches, but still very raw. Ajose: 4 Another poor performance.
Referee 8 Phillips: 6.5 Good saves but doesn't command. Dijksteel: 7 I've liked him at centre-back but was always going to struggle in the air. Still, he's developing nicely. Sarr: 6.5 Was obliged to defend all the set pieces on his own in that line-up. Stevenson: 5.5 Fluffed his lines at 0-0 when he was nearly in on goal. Stuck at it well and may develop into a decent enough player. Marshall: 8 - So much positive running and has never seen so much of the ball. The only player who looked like he might score. Reeves: 5 - Disappointing. He scored roughly 1 in 4 for MK Dons. Where have all the goals gone? Clarke: 5.5 - Odd moments of quality but better when he dropped back and got involved rather than hovering about behind the front two. Still looks lightweight in front of goal. Lapslie: 6 - A lot of effort and a few decent balls. Was having to cover so much ground. These cup games have been good for him. Maloney: 5.5 - Better than he was at Mansfield. He can definitely play and did some good things but he needs to be playing regularly at non-league (can't see a League 2 club playing him regularly). Hackett-Fairchild: 5.5 - Much better than he was at Mansfield. His hold up play was good but physically he doesn't compete and looks hopeless in the air. Some very deft touches and can clearly play. Get him on loan somewhere he can play and get bashed up a bit. Ajose: 4.5 - Not much service but didn't gel with RHF. Makes a lot of runs which are wasted by our slow build up play. Looked SO much better with Taylor alongside.
Morgan: n/a - Not great. Sarpong-Wiredo: n/a - I like him. He's fast and he's direct. I just hope the coaches don't turn him into another negative wide-man and let him do his thing. He could be a useful sub in the months to come.
Referee 6.5 didn't get much wrong Phillips: 6.5 kept the score respectable Dijksteel: 6.5 looked OK Sarr: 7 one of our better ones Stevenson: 6 loses half a mark for that miss. thought he did OK otherwise Marshall: 7.5 obviously didn't know we were supposed to lose. Reeves: 5.5 looked very rusty Clarke: 6 better than against Mansfield but not much Lapslie: 5.5 bags of energy and chasing back, but I think he needs more Maloney: 4.5 anonymous, thought we improved when he was subbed Hackett-Fairchild: 4.5 made some nice runs but very lightweight Ajose: 5 meh
Morgan: shame he wasn't on for longer, looked more assured Sarpong-Wiredo: as above
