Phillips: 7.5 - very little to do but an excellent save at the end Solly: 8 - he is right back in the groove Lockyer: 8 - first class. Reads the game so well Sarr: 8 - a really fine performance, capped off with his goal Forster-Caskey: 8 - did a good job and added to our offensive options Pratley: 9 - MoM: a phenomenal performance Gallagher: 8 - another quality performance and a fantastic strike Cullen: 8.5 - what an engine this guy has. Broke up play repeatedly and used the ball extremely well Williams: 8 - gave Derby a lot of problems when he was on the field Leko: 7 - not much came off for him but his movement and work rate stretched the Derby back line Bonne: 8 - a great first time strike and a player who is continuing to grow Field: 8.5 - excellent. He won the ball time and time again and used it economically Referee: 5 - too whistle happy for me
Phillips: 7.5 - His least busy game but made a superb save late on. Solly: 7.5 - Part of a very solid defence. Lockyer: 8 - Marked his man and played out when he could. Sarr: 8.5 - Some good tackles, passes and a nice little move away from his marker for the headed goal (his first header since Palace away!) Forster-Caskey: 7.5 - Looked assured. Like Purrington, he'll never burn away down the wing but he offers balance and has ability. Pratley: 9 - Superb performance. Knew when to go in tight and when to back off. Looks very fit and the switch to the back could add a few years to his career. Gallagher: 8 - Not at his best 1st half but grew into the game and scored a wonderful goal. Cullen:8 - Picked the bits up and kept the ball moving. Missed a one on one (I think it was him) but another excellent game. Williams: 8 - Brings so much energy and drive to the team. Leko: 6.5 - A poor first half but upped his game and did a good job for the team. Bonne: 8 - His touch looks good and does well when he keeps it simple. Not as effective in the air as usual but a brilliant thumping finish. A couple of games ago he was looking to pass....now he's looking to shoot. Cleared three corners/free-kicks with his head. Field: 8 - Hunted the ball down and won it back in some great areas. Played higher than usual and showed that he can be effective. Referee: 7 - Overall ok but after an encouraging start, he blew for a lot a very minor contacts.
Hemed: n/a - Looks sluggish. Kayal: n/a - Looks pretty fit (whether can last 90 mins is another thing) and was an ideal, calm head to bring on to see the game out. Think he'll start at WBA.
Phillips: 7.5 dominant and safe showing, good late save Solly: 8 thought he was excellent! loves an international break Lockyer: 7.5 v good & tidy display Sarr: 8.5 should send a video of that performance to the Senegal FA (maybe editing out a stray pass or two) Forster-Caskey: 7.5 did brilliant work down the wing and seems to have found a new position. -0.5 for a blatant dive Pratley: 8.5 ok i give up where's the real Darren Pratley, where have you hidden him. another one whose positional switch is entirely appropriate Gallagher: 8.5 had been having a good game but sent everyone insane with that strike. thought 'that's gone over' when it left his foot, but he is the New Beckham #bernoullieffect Cullen: 8 destroyed their midfield, should have scored Williams: 7.5 super assist, looked great, hope he's okay Leko: 7 while he didn't often do quite the right thing, i think he was physical, covered a lot of ground and was important to us today. bowyer gave him a good pat at the end Bonne: 8 beginning to look like a proper centre-forward Field: 8.5 absolutely ENORMOUS performance, was everywhere, running the show. clearly a midfielder of immense promise Referee: 8 got all the bigger calls right
Hemed: n/a good touch Kayal: n/a some energy
Was it you that sent the video of Lyle to Montserrat
Phillips: 8 kept a clean sheet despite two good efforts from Derby. Shouldn't underestimate his contribution just because the defence was so solid Solly: 8 Lockyer: 8.5 Sarr: 8.5 loved his goal, made it look easy Forster-Caskey: 8 impressed in his new position Pratley: 9.5 what a fighter. Gallagher: 9 what a goal! Cullen: 8 Williams: 8 was playing really well, great set up for our first. Hope it's not too bad Leko: 8 Bonne: 8 never stopped chasing the ball Field: 8 Referee: 7.5 conned a bit by Derby but god use of playing the advantage. A step above most we've had
Phillips: 7.5 Not much to do but a crucial diving save to his left at 1-0 relieved pressure and a good one on one save towards the end
Solly: 7 Looked a little exposed once or twice but his general nous more than compensated as it usually does
Lockyer: 7.5 Another solid performance from Tom
Sarr: 8 As Lockyer extra .5 for the goal
Forster-Caskey: 7 As Solly in that occasionally exposed. However pleasantly surprised by how well he has coped in a different role. Naby helps him out well.
Pratley: 9 Did what he does so well. Crucial tackles, encouraged the others and generally bolstered the defensive side considerably. My MOM
Gallagher: 8 Good Conor performance extra .5 for a superb goal
Cullen: 8.5 Second only to Pratley for me on the day
Williams:7.5 Was buzzing and creative. Hope the injury is not serious.
Leko: 7 Not at his best but never hid and offered a constant outlet
Bonne: 8 Well taken goal and only denied a second by an excellent save by their keeper
Field: 7.5 Stiffened up the midfield when he came on.
Referee: 6 Bottled the odd decision but better than some.
Phillips: 7 not much to do but great block near the end and distribution better Solly: 7 another solid display Lockyer: 8 what an acquisition Sarr: 8 some good tackles great pass in the first goal and a goal for himself Forster-Caskey: 7 didn’t expect to see much of him this season but has slotted in very well Pratley: 9 surprised to see him picked ahead of Pearce against Martin but was immense Gallagher: 8.5 great goal and covers so much of the pitch Cullen: 8 another very accomplished performance Williams: 8 looked lively Leko: 7 not much came off for him but great work rate for a winger Bonne: 8 his finishing looked superb in the warm up and continued on the pitch Field: 8 looks a class player Referee: 6 generally ok but a couple of very strange decisions
Phillips: 8 Didn't have a lot to do but when he did he was up to the task. Good distribution today. Solly: 8 Great performance against a quality winger. Lockyer: 8.9 Immense Sarr: 9 Immense, plus he scored. Forster-Caskey: 8 Looked every bit a left back and was dangerous going forward. Pratley: 9 Fantastic performance. Lost count of the number of tackles/ interceptions he made. Gallagher: 9 Fantastic player and full of energy Cullen: 9 How fit is this guy. Kept running and running. Williams: 8 Was a constant danger until he went off Leko: 8 Exciting and frustrating in equal measures! Was always available and worked his socks off. Bonne: 8 Looks a quality striker. Excellent goal and held the ball well. Field: 8 Impressive performance. Another player who seemed to be everywhere Referee: 7 Tried to keep the game flowing. Should have booked one or two Derby players earlier.
Hemed: n/a The only disappointment of the day. Not a patch on Bonne at the moment. Kayal: n/a Looked quality for the time he was on the pitch
A rare game at the Valley for me and I have to say that was one of the best performances I have ever seen from a Charlton team.... And I have been following them for 40 plus years!
Phillips: 7 not a lot to do other than the 1 on 1 Solly: 7.5 dilligent in defence Lockyer: 8 loves a scrap Sarr: 9 a goal, practically an assist with the ball to Williams and a clean sheet, keeping club captain Pearce out of the team on merit at the moment Forster-Caskey: 7.5 done well in the left back position and is a good outlet to have wide Pratley: 8.5 his experience in football is really showing at the moment, doesn't have pace, a great touch or passing prowess but his footballing intelligence, movement and positioning always ensure he's in the right place at the right time Gallagher: 9.5 MOM amazing goal capped off a top notch performance, will be a void to fill when he's called back in January Cullen: 8.5 so industrious and seems to wriggle away from players with the ball, wins a lot of 50/50's too Williams: 8 another assist for the diminutive Welsh Wizard, shame about the injury Leko: 7.5 greedy at times but he's a great player to have on the break as his running at defenders pulls people out of position Bonne: 8.5 getting better and better, took his goal really well and his confidence is sky high right now Field: 7.5 didn't notice him that much but he's a tidy footballer and plays unhurried football Referee: 6.5 lots of niggly fouls from Derby went unnoticed in the first half, got a bit better in the second but I didn't agree with the JFC booking
Phillips: 7 Solly: 8 His best performance for a long time Lockyer: 8 Sarr: 8.5 Forster-Caskey: 7 Much better team with him around. Pratley: 8.5 And I never rated him when he first arrived Gallagher: 7.5 Thought he was quiet by his standards before the wonder goal Cullen: 8.5 I love him. Williams: 8. Leko: 6.5 Tried hard but it just didn't happen. Bonne: 8 Field: 7 Best I have seen of him. Referee: 6 Inconsistent.
Phillips: 7 - Solid game Solly: 7.5 - Tough game but did well Lockyer: 7.5 - So dependable Sarr: 7 - Defended well but passing was a bit iffy at times Forster-Caskey: 6.5 - Had an easy game Pratley: 8 - Stonking game Gallagher: 8.5 - The best teenage midfielder at The Valley since Jonjo! Cullen: 8 - Dominated their midfield Williams: 7 - Great assist and was playing well before injury Leko: 6.5 - Deeper role meant he got caught up in midfield battle more often, but did his job well Bonne: 7 - Great finish and worked hard Field: 8 - Fantastic work ethic and made numerous tackles Referee: 7 - Did well, mostly
Phillips: 8 - played well when called upon Solly: 8 - does the basics well, considering in the last few years he's been struggling with his knees, he did well getting up and back. Lockyer: 8 - A good tussle with their striker, always seems composed in possession. Sarr: 8 - A few errant passes, but he dominated their strikers, with one particularly well timed slide tackle, and a goal. Forster-Caskey: 8 - When I saw him at left back/wing back I was worried, but he played well and was solid. Pratley: 9 - Defensively a man mountain, he adds an imposing presence to our side, and was a key part of us dominating their midfield. Gallagher: 8 - Always industrious and hard working, mixed with some beautiful touches, but that goal WOW! Cullen: 8 - He's key to how we play short passes, hard working, busy in and out of possession. Williams: 7 - Key assist for the first goal, the injury looked bad, I hope we see him back soon. Leko: 8 - Held the ball up well, won corners, frustrating at times, but worked really hard defensively as well as providing a good outlet. Bonne: 8 - You can see the confidence as he is taking strikes on first time, very nearly had a second goal. Field: 9 - I thought Oztumer would come on for Williams, but Field was a great call, broke up their play and dominated the midfield. Referee: 6 - He let all the aerial duels go early on, including Lockyer and their player wrestling on the floor! It was infuriating at first but got used to the fact you could basically shove some in the back and win the ball.
Phillips: 7.5 very little to do but did it all well Solly: 7.5 Solly of old. Got up and down well was never beaten on a 1v1 real solid performance Lockyer: 8 Lot of man love for Lockyer. Real fighter and loves a scrap but also technically very good on the ball for a CB. Won his battle with Lawrence. Sarr: 9 the vision and then the ability to execute the pass for the first goal was world class! Solid through out including a couple of really key tackles. Doesn't score enough from set piece for a guy of his size but showed real desire to get on the end of that one - hope he keeps it up. Forster-Caskey: 7 always been a fan and glad hes doing well. looks to be getting fitter and sharper. Sure he will be useful option to having going forward. Don;t be surprised if we see him in CM before the season is out. Pratley: 9 just incredible. Everywhere and a real leader. If he was 10 years younger he would be worth millions. Gallagher: 9 kid is world class. Everywhere when off the ball and always showing for the ball when we have it. Technique for his goal was unbelievable. Cullen: 9 Very much the unsung member of our midfield but he is everywhere and just brilliant. Nearly had a goal and would have deserved one too/ Williams: 8 just a brilliant player. Hope his injury isn't serious as he is so key to us. Leko: 7 tried hard and was a bit hot and cold. lots of defensive covering and tracking back Bonne: 8 amazing finish hold up play getting better and better. Presses well and causes problems. Field: 7.5 the best we have seen of him. Wanted Ozzy on but Sam showed his class today. Tough tackler and the interception for Gallaghers goal was great anticipation. Referee:2 Don't usually say this when we win 3-0 but he was shocking.
Hemed: n/a Not the sort of striker that fits our system particularly but will offer something different which will be key when we need to change things off the bench or in certain games. Kayal: n/a Looked good. has vision for sure. Think he will still need to get fitter and work harder to fit into a Bow midfield.
Phillips: 8 not much to do but made a top 1-on-1 save let on. Solly: 8 same old Solly Lockyer: 8.5 very solid Sarr: 8 very solid Forster-Caskey: 8 out of position but wasn’t out of depth Pratley: 9 the man is that cog in the middle that keeps everything ticking over. Gallagher: 9 what a player. What a goal Cullen: 9 pay the money and get him on a permanent deal. Williams: 8 hope it’s not too bad. Was a bit worried when he went off Leko: 7 needs to release the ball earlier. He’s a bit like Lloyd Sam in the sense that he goes and beats his man, but then goes back to try and beat him again. Bonne: 8 took his goal very well Field: 8 thought it was a bit of a negative substitution. Worked perfectly. Referee: 7 thought he was decent
