Phillips: 7 - Couldnt do anything about the goals, great save after Lapslie's foul Solly: 4 - Not a Left-Back as proven countless times this season Bauer: 6 - At fault for the first goal Pearce: 7 - Great block to put the ball out for a corner for that first goal Dijksteel: 5 - No final ball, strolls back into position far too often Cullen: 6 - Tried to make things happen but just wouldnt come off for him Bielik: 6 - Slipped at too many crucial times, not his best performance today Aribo: 7 - Did well to win the penalty, better game than recent performances for him Reeves: 7 - Shouldnt have taken him off Williams: 6 - Took a step back today after recent performances Taylor: 6 - Nothing really came off for him today
Parker: 4 - Oh dear!!! Lapslie: 6 - Best Full-Back we had today, should have been sent off
Referee: 4 - Gave us the penalty and seemed to regret it by giving everything to Oxford then onwards
Dillon- 6: Couple of decent stops, but wayward kicking.
Solly - 0: Am I allowed to do this? I don’t know, but he deserves nothing higher Bauer -6: Not terrible. Pearce-6 : Same as Bauer Dijksteel-4: Clearly not a RB, can’t attack with pace or purpose, can’t defend steadily.
Cullen-6: slightly below his usual levels but still okay. Bielik-7 : Thought he played some nice stuff, our best player. Aribo-7 : Effort was there, nice bits of skill, just stay on your feet though.
Reeves-3: Reminds me of Robinson, lucky to get a 3 Williams -6: Either they beat or worst player on the pitch, but never hides.
Taylor -7: Can’t have been impressed with the shambles going on behind him. Needs Igor back.
Subs
Parker-1: Friendly reminder this man is paid to play football for a living.
Dillon-6- tough for him on both goals. Didn't have much to do Solly-1 I know he's not a left back but he was disgraceful Bauer-6.5 loses half a mark for the first goal but he was a constant presence at the back today Pearce-7 solid, didn't get bullied by anyone Dijksteel-3 can't pass to save his life Cullen-6 solid as usual Bielik-6 couple slip ups and a dumb yellow but he did what he had to Aribo-7.5 Too many stupid dives in the first half, ran his socks off and scared them shitless when running at them Reeves-4 anonymous Williams-5.5 on the floor too much. Didn't impress me today Taylor-6-Good finish for the goal. Oxford kept him in check
Subs
Parker-5 Had plenty of goal to shoot at for the free kick but instead went for the low shot. Puzzling
Phillips - 7 big save at the end that kept us in it Solly - 4 fair enough he’s out of position but Jesus that was a terrible performance Bauer - 6 good enough Pearce - 6 as above but way prefer Sarr in the team Dijksteel - 6 bang average Cullen - 7.5 controlled the play at times Bielik - 7 a few mistakes but you can see why he’s at Arsenal Aribo - 8 probably our best player on the pitch, just can be frustrating at times because we know he’s got a lot of ability but he sometimes doesn’t use it well Reeves - 5 anonymous. Bowyer made the right decision to take him off at half time at bring on Parker. It’s just a shame that Parker is so shite Williams - 7 showed glimpses but does what Holmes used to do quite a lot: aimless running down dead alleyways Taylor - 7.5 good penalty and offered quite a lot but he was so isolated in the first half. Because he likes to drift out wide quite a lot, one striker was never going to work Parker - 5 absolutely terrible
Ref - 2 cost us the game with bad decisions here and there. Gets 2 marks for the penalty decision and the sending off of their keeper, but he lost control almost as soon as the game started
Phillips - 7 Solly - 3 Bauer - 6 Pearce - 6 Dijksteel - 5 Cullen - 7 Bielik - 6.5 Aribo - 7 Reeves - 5 Williams - 7.5 Taylor - 7.5 Parker - N/A missed the first couple of mins of the second half and didnt know he had come on, only realised when he took a shit freekick and after that didnt notice him for the rest off the game
Phillips: 7 - Couldn't do anything about the goals, one great save Solly: 4 - I do not want to read one message on here questioning what Purrington brings to the team Bauer: 6 - OK Pearce: 6 - Ok but Sarr starts a lot of our attacks. He should have started this one as he is the better player, good player that Pearce is Dijksteel: 5 - Needed more qulaity Cullen: 6 - His worse game for a while Bielik: 6.5 - Did ok Aribo: 7 - Was giving them problems, a few wrong choices Reeves: 6.5 - Busy but not that effective Williams: 7.5 MOTM - Him and Aribo were our best midfielders Taylor: 7 - Can't do it all on his own
Parker: 4 - Pub player who needs too much time - I blame him for Solly's red as he should have done better with his initial chance. Lapslie: 6 - Busy when he came on - he should have walked at the end though.
They were getting players in box defending in numbers, it was clear we were going to get lots of opportunities to cross it in and we had a giant on the bench. BTW, we had a freekick in a perfect position for that player in the first half. Because Pearce is a great pro and our captain it can cloud things but Bowyer has to accept Sarr is our better player in that position and this was the game for Sarr and Pearce's was Monday.
Dillon 7 nothing wrong really, good save at the end after lapslie mistake
Solly 4 not good. Didn't look like a red from where I was though. Bauer 6 both CBs fine mostly, not sure what happened for the first goal though. Pearce 7 extra mark for a great block early on Dijksteel 4.5 offered very little going forward when we needed it
Cullen 5 didnt really come off today. bad corners too Bielik 6 some good moments, some really poor mistakes Aribo 7.5 MOM for me
Reeves 6 fairly anonymous Williams 3.5 dont understand some of the marks here tbh. gave the ball away every time! wasted so many attacks!
Taylor 7 well taken penalty. Didn't have a lot of service.
Solly 3 Charlton thru and thru so no comment Bauer 5 should have been rested instead of Sarr Pearce 6 steady eddy but has not got the passing ability of Naby Dijksteel 5 poor crossing
Cullen 6 off day Bielik 5 over elaborated at times and got caught in possession or slipped
Aribo 7 Best player for us although oxford commentator comparing him to Zaha was OTT
Reeves 5 subbed for Parker looks wrong in hindsight Williams 6 Dive in 2nd half deserved booking
Taylor 6.5 tried hard but needs a player to play off him
Dillon 7 not at fault Solly 7 thought the sending off harsh, the ref had the card out soooo fast Bauer 6 seemed to loose his man for the goal Pearce 7 Solid but I’d have rather seen Nabster Dijksteel 5 not his best game Cullen 7 worked hard thought he and Bielik should swop position Bielik 6 Worked hard but gave a daft foul away for their 2nd goal Aribo 7 love watching him play best of a dire midfield for me Reeves 3 bloody oxygen thief today Williams 4 runs with the ball a lot achieved little Taylor 8 MoM on effort alone
Some bizarre and marks on here, people overreacting.
Dillon 6.5 - pretty solid (although haven't re-seen the free kick to see if he should have done more)
Solly 5 - not at his best, but out of position Bauer 6.5 - bit blind in some of his passing out in second half Pearce 7.5 - solid and reliable and the block in the first half was immense. Dijksteel 6 Cullen 7 Bielik 7 Aribo 7 - started really well, a class above but drifted later. However for some reason the rest of the team refused to pass him the ball in the last 20 minutes. Reeves 5 - pretty ineffective Williams 3 - can someone please tell him to stop running in circles, falling over, claiming silly fouls. Please pass the f**k ball! Taylor 7
Parker 5 - not the answer.
Drysdale 5.5 - not as bad as some think he was but allowed OU to get away with cynical time wasting.
Phillips: 7 - no mistakes and a great save Solly: 5 - really don’t like him on the left Pearce: 7.5 - largely dominated in the air, doesn’t have the Nabster’s feet, probably 2 goal-saving blocks Bauer: 5.5 - not so composed as normal Dijksteel: 4.5 - no delivery, bad first touch. I just don’t rate him as much of a footballer. Cullen: 6 - good effort, didn’t have a lot of help, but passing was a bit off Bielik: 5.5 - looked ropey, not built for games coming thick and fast Aribo: 7 - only player in the middle I though looked sharp, created chances Reeves: 4 - toilet Williams: 5 - got a lot of touches on the ball, but kept running it sideways into trouble trying to make things happen, constantly slowing down play and losing the ball. Without the endeavour I’d be scoring lower Taylor: 5.5 - had chances first half he couldn’t take, crowded out on his own and with Parker (basically on his own) Parker: 4.5 - not many chances to do things wrong, but it was basically still Taylor on his own up front. There is no player in there
