Solly: 7 decent but no Dijksteel Lockyer: 6.5 looked so good at times but some errors plus I blame him for the goal Pearce: 7.5 captain's performance Purrington: 8.5 so good often an outlet and great balls Cullen: 8.5 no one got past him and some great recovering tackles Pratley: 8.5 so important first half but faded as the match went on Gallagher: 9.5 motm outstanding debut Williams: 8.5 great skill bit often let it drift out of play Leko: 9 looked like he had a lot to prove, and really excited; hope he's not hot and cold Taylor: 7.5 not much service but did well when he got a sniff Referee: 7.5 generally okay
Phillips: 6.5 did ok, dodgy pass to Pearce in the first half and maybe could've been better positioned for their first goal
Solly: 6 started very shaky but grew into it and put in a couple of decent crosses Lockyer: 5.5 unconvincing this week, too easily beaten in the air by Gregory for their goal Pearce: 7.5 couldn't even get in the team last year but is going to be pivotal this year
Purrington: 7 still room to improve offensively but he's absolutely solid defensively
Cullen: 8 I was in the the camp that was unconvinced he'd make the step up but absolutely no concerns now Pratley: 7.5 see Pearce comments. these two are pivotal for our spine this season Gallagher: 9 MOM what a tidy player, he can pass, he can shoot, he can tackle. Good luck getting him out of the team
Williams: 8.5 some of his turns and flicks were a joy to watch
Leko: 7.5 Cawley summed it up best by saying "not even he knows what's going to happen when he gets the ball" so much raw talent, hopefully Bow can help him channel it
Taylor: 8 considering the week he just had, a very professional performance capped off with the usual goal and assist
Referee: 6.5 pretty easy game to manage, don't think he had any big decisions to make
Phillips: 4 Distribution was poor and should have done better with goal Solly: 7 Lockyer: 8 Pearce: 7.5 Purrington: 7 Cullen: 8 Pratley: 9 Seems to improve every game Gallagher: 8.5 improved as the game went on, played better when he dropped back a bit. Williams: 8 Leko: 8 Taylor: 8 Referee: 7
Phillips: 6 - Wind assisted goal? Made no mistake with Stoke's big chance just before half-time and clutched a deflected effort at the end. Solly: 7.5 - Shaky start but very good thereafter. Passed the ball well. Lockyer: 7.5 - Beaten in the air for 1st goal but he's not going to win every header. Read the game well and defended properly. Pearce: 8 - Really good in our box. Won some good headers and as ever, got tight to his man. Purrington: 7.5 - Positionally excellent and carried the ball well down the left. Cullen: 8.5 - Like he'd never been away. Mopped up the bits because he knows where the ball is going to drop and kept us ticking. Pratley: 8.5 - Looks so much fitter than a year ago. Got around the pitch like a 20 year old. Tackled, closed down and played! Even sprayed a couple of long passes. Gallagher: 8 - Chased shadows for the first 10 while Stoke were on top BUT never gave up. Once he got involved, he did a bit of everything; tackled, passed, ran, challenged for headers & scored! Williams: 8 - Buzzed around like a young Gascoigne. Never stood still even when he was on the wing...always showing or running in behind. Then he moved central and things happened off him. Leko: 7.5 - Very impressed with his attitude. Was blowing at one point because he found the tracking back hard but with the ball at his feet, he was great fun to watch. Taylor: 7.5 - Came alive in the box and made his own luck for his goal. 2nd half we started to see the REAL Lyle; chasing back and then surging forward. Getting to the by-line and cutting wicked balls back. Referee: 8.5 - Let lots of things go but the players respected it. No bookings and contributed massively to a good game.
Aneke: n/a - Big lad! Well taken goal and as cameos go, it was very effective. Lapslie: n/a - Proper Barnet.
Philips 6 slow to react for their goal Soly 6 think we are gonna need another right back but Soly is still a legend Lockyer 6.5 think I'm gonna give him a few games before I start judging him Pearce 8 old school centre back and captain gonna need him to stay fit this season think his Purrington 7 never let's us down Cullen 8.5 fantastic to see him back doing what he does best Pratley 8.5 this guy has got better the longer he has stayed with us feels like we have a new player Gallagher 8.5 started slow but grew into the game looks absolutely quality so thankyou Chelsea Williams 9 MOM I love the way he plays and his attitude never stops a constant threat and looks like he is enjoying being here Leko 8 wow what pace something we've been missing since Grant left Taylor 8.5 great goal and cheeky assist still our most important player and pivotal to our season So please Roland give him a pay rise so we can keep him
Phillips: 6 should have saved the goal but he knows that. Still no1 Solly: 7 playing like that I've no issue with Solls having the RB slot. Wiredu for when his knee needs a rest Lockyer: 7 thought he was awful 1st half. Perhaps it was nerves as improved 2nd Pearce: 8 commanding presence at the back Purrington: 7 solid Cullen: 8 welcome home Josh Pratley: 8 2 faultless displays so far. Kayal should still take his spot when up to speed though Gallagher: 8 blimey, the exuberance of youth? Never stopped running. Took his goal well and kid looks a player Williams: 9 absolute class above. If he stays fit he's one of the best players in this league Leko: 7 tricky, lively and inconsistent. Typical winger's display and excited to see more of him Taylor's: 7 quiet day really but sort of striker that only needs one chance to score. So important we kept hold of him. Point off for not celebrating the goal. What's done is done Lyle, now crack on Referee: 7
Phillips: 7 Maybe could have done better with Inces’ goal but otherwise was solid Solly: 7 Steady as a rock. Lockyer: 7 Solid Pearce: 7 unlucky to see the deflection come off his head and into the path of Ince for their goal. Purrington: 7 Got into some decent positions to attack down the left. Cullen: 8 What. A. Player. Pratley: 7 was in and around their midfield like a rabid dog. Gallagher: 8 took a while to get going in first half but was immense in the second half. Williams: 8.5 Not much luck in the first half came inside more second half and was lethal. Leko: 7 Very quick and just needs to be a bit more clinical. Taylor: 8 Didn’t realise how hard he hit the ball for the first goal until you see it on TV. Referee: 10 thought he managed the game perfectly and hardly noticed he was there.
Phillips: 6.5 - apart from the passing out from the back i thought he was ok Solly: 7 - defended well and went forward on a few occasions to give leko an option. Lockyer: 6.5 - looked assured most of the time but there was a few mistakes in the air. Pearce: 7.5 - dealt with most of their threat. captains performance. kept the back four pretty solid throughout. Purrington: 7.5 - defended very well and attacked with some intent. Cullen: 8.5 - so glad to have him back. non stop work-rate. actually i felt the whole teams work-rate was great. we were much fitter than them. Pratley: 8.5 - broke up possession well and even added some attacking threat. Gallagher: 8.5 - in their faces the whole game. good link up play with others. professional finish for his goal. Williams: 8.5 - they couldn't handle him. Leko: 7.5 - he looks good. got pace and tricks. prefer if he gets the ball in with low crosses. Taylor: 8 - started off slowly but once he got his goal he was a real handfull. Referee: 6
Phillips: 5, poor game, bad distribution (I think the club needs to look at their tactics with the new goal kick rule), should have saved their goal Solly: 8, very good game and Linked well with Leko Lockyer: 7.5, very good debut apart from mistake for their goal. Pearce: 7.5, hopefully will have a great partnership with Lockyer. Purrington: 8, I like him, solid and made some good attacking runs Cullen: 9 MOM by a country mile, great player Pratley: 8.5, broke up Stokes play so many times, looks fitter than last season, great display Gallagher: 8, first half trying a bit too hard to impress, second half much better, was everywhere. Took his goal well. This boy will be some player! Williams: 8.5, I love this blokes attitude, again first half a little quiet, second half he got at them more, would love to see him score some goals, great player, please stay fit. Leko: 8, excellent debut, great pass assist for Lyles goal, looked bloody dangerous running at their defence, needs his fitness levels up to match Bowyers requirements to be the fittest club in the league. Taylor: 8.5, great goal. Our talisman had one of their CBs hanging off his back for most of the game, he was shattered at the end of the game, I love the way he drifts to the corner of the 18 yard box, creating space.
Phillips: 6 Solly: 7 Lockyer: 7 Pearce: 7 Purrington: 8 Cullen: 9 Pratley: 9 Gallagher: 8 Williams: 9 Leko: 7 Taylor: 8.8 Referee: 2 Yes, he let the game flow, but he should have handed out two yellows for diving, one for each side, and a red for their 14 going through Williams. The ref's assistant needs a good bolloxing for not flagging that foul.
Phillips: 6 Looks a little low on confidence Solly: 7 Can still do a good job Lockyer: 7.5 Good solid performance Pearce: 7.5 Ditto. Purrington: 7.5 - Becoming a real attacking threat Cullen: 9 MOM - Quality player, great to see him back Pratley: 8 - Gets stuck in, valuable to the team. Gallagher: 8.5 - Impressive performance Williams: 8.5 - Typical performance, a real nuisance to play against. Leko: 7.5 Some nice touches, looks useful Taylor: 8 One chance, one goal - enough said
Phillips:6 - didn't have much to do tbh, not sure there was much he could do about the goal, but would need to look at it from other angle Solly: 6 - worries me, may see a lot of teams attacking us down our right this year. Lockyer: 8 - Cool and composed on the ball, good distribution, and defends for his life - I think this fella could become a star. Pearce: 7.5 Good ol solid Pearcey. Purrington: 7.5 - good game looked very good offensively too. Cullen: 8 - well, just what you expect from Josh, if it was anyone else, he would be getting a 9 Pratley: 7 a little surprised by the OTT marks , played well, no more. Gallagher: 8 - first half didn't really get into game much, but much more influential secon8 Williams:7 - usual buzzy Jonny performance, he really gives us some drive, was often going into blind alleys in first , but good second. Leko: 7 - wow, what a start. Glides past players as if they are not there. Faded a bit with ball starvation, but clearly a real find. Taylor: 8.5 - great goal, great assist, great tracking back - what else can you ask for? Referee: 8
Phillips: 7 couldnt do anything about the goal. Solly: 7 did well. Lockyer: 6 good bad and ugly, needs to sharpen up his passing out from the back. Pearce: 7 good game. Purrington: 7 quieter than last week but played well. Cullen: 9 absolutely massive player for us, he is quality. Pratley: 7,5 worked really hard, looks incredibly fit for his age. Gallagher: 9 going to be a special player this boy. Williams: 8.5 lovely player to watch and has added an end product to his game. Prem quality. Leko: 7.5 looks exciting, frustrating, quality and lacking all at the same time. Definitely a wildcard - will terrorise a few defences this season. Taylor: 8 after a tough week for him he came out and got a goal and assist. Love this bloke. Referee: 6 couple of shockers he missed - the two footed late tackle on Williams was minimum a yellow and he didnt even give a foul.

He could have saved it mate, his positioning was all over the place, his footwork was wrong because he expected it to go across him, and so he got embarrassed at the near post by a chest height shot, terrible keeping and only himself to blame.
