Please disregard these marks. They are complete bollocks.
Phillips: 7 Consistent game just wish some of his kicking was more accurate. Lockyer:7.5 Made up for the one error with superb header. Oshilaja: 7.5 Surprised he was taken off. Sarr: 8 Some great tackles and passes. Matthews: 8 Excellent signing. Pratley; 9 MOM Captains performance what a signing. One of the outstanding Championship players! Gallagher: 7.5 Good game, no protection from useless Ref. Dempsey: 5 Don't like marking youngster low, but not ready yet, why no Albie, lots making similiar comments! Doughty: 7.5 Great discovery either LW or LB fits in well! Davison; 7.5 Good goal worked hard, well done Josh! Green: 7.5 Liked what I saw, great pace and excellent control! Forster-Caskey: 6.5 Getting back to fitness great to see. Williams: 8 For me a game changer, what we have been missing, lifts the team. Referee: Not up to Championship standard missed so much and so many wrong decisions. Would love to be his assessor!
Hemed: n/a But good cameo, will be a danger when he gets more minutes!
Phillips: 7 Lockyer: 6.5 - awful decision making for their first, brilliant header for his goal Oshilaja: 7 Sarr 8 Matthews: 7 Pratley; 8.5 certainly got inside West Broms players heads, thought he would get one of them sent off or himself. Gallagher: 7 looked tired in patches Dempsey: 6.5 Doughty: 7 Davison; 7.5 Green: 7.5 really good proper debut, liked Leko but I think Green will be a huge success! Forster-Caskey: 7 Williams: 7 Refer
At The Valley (at long, long last), so I'm going to be generous.
Phillips: 8 - Bonus point for that save in the first half and minus point from some Keilyesque kicking.
Lockyer: 8 - A really solid game, terrific well aimed header for the goal and very unlucky to lose possession for their first.
Oshilaja: 8 - Though he looked composed on the ball and string in the tackle, though his distribution could be better. Gutted that his great block for the first goal attempt went straight back to their forward.
Sarr: 8 - Hot and cold, but extra points for a fantastic jump to assist our first equalizer and a superb tackle that pushes a close second to Rufus's at WHL.
Matthews: 7 - Was originally slightly doubtful about him, but he's grown on me and was very solid today.
Pratley; 9 - My MOM. He put himself about, chased everything, made a right nuisance of himself and wound up the whole West Brom entourage. Model Pro.
Gallagher: 6 - His worst performance for us to date, but he has been my player of the season so far. Really should have scored when the keeper passed straight to him. He needs a rest and a haircut. Nice car mind for a 19 year old.
Dempsey: 6 - a bit anonymous throughout
Doughty: 8 - The lads got real talent and a strong engine. Not convinced we've sussed the right position for him yet, but he's obviously versatile.
Davison; 8 - Extra point for his quick thinking and reaction to Naby's knock down. The lad worked his socks off and caused the two main CBs lots of problems all afternoon. Impressive, particularly as he was easily knocked off the ball in the first couple of minutes.
Green: 7 - Did well, without being spectacular. Sure he will improve as he gels with his new team mates and LBs 'system'.
Forster-Caskey: 6 - Unlike others, I didn't think he brought much to the party when he came on and felt he was quite wasteful on a couple of occasions. I put that down to lack of match practice. Good to see him back though
Williams: 8 - Always a threat and will get you loads of free kicks, mainly because of his quick feet. Looked dangerous when he came on and ended the game uninjured, which is a bonus.
Referee: 6 - He must have left his red card at home. Was amusing when he just ran round the two Taffs rolling about in the middle of the pitch, he probably thought it was a traditional Welsh New Years thing. Someone said he was the Aussie who came to the Championship, so he probably has empathy with another sheep loving nation.
Phillips: 8 Good save in 1st half, was solid. Lockyer: 7 Too many risks and paid dearly for one Oshilaja: 8 Another safe performance, didn't get the luck when trying to make up for Lockyer's error. Sarr: 8 extra point for that tackle Matthews: 7 Pratley; 9 Experience needed today and workrate was excellent. Gallagher: 7 Not his best today Dempsey: 5 Harsh but out of his depth here Doughty: 6 Davison; 9 Frequently bullied their defence. Goal was totally deserved and really pleased for him Green: 7 Forster-Caskey: 6.5 Worked hard to press when he came on but more to come Williams: 7 Made a difference, partly just by being on the pitch but also added quality. Referee: 2 Bottled the big decisions.
Phillips: 7 Good kicking game today, except a couple that went astray later on Lockyer: 6.5 plus one for the goal, minus one for their 1st goal Oshilaja: 7 Sarr: 8 Matthews: 7.5 Pratley; 8 Gallagher: 7.5 Dempsey: 6.5 Doughty: 7.5 Davison; 8 plus one for the goal. Handful. Green: 7 Forster-Caskey: 7 Could be a big player for us. Williams: 7 Great that he’s back Referee: 3 Typical Aussie.
Phillips: 7.5 ... good scrambling save first half, unlucky with both goals Lockyer: 6 ... not his finest hour (and a half) but cracking header for the equaliser (even though it'll go as an og against their keeper) Oshilaja: 7.5 ... defended well, desperately unlucky not to stop the first goal Sarr: 8 ... towering assist and second best tackle of the season after Lockyer's pickpocket effort earlier in the season (was it the Leeds game? Or Forest or Brentford?) Matthews: 7.5 ... mostly solid Pratley; 9 ... MoM, Master of Mischief. Got into the Baggies' heads. Gallagher: 6 ... needs a rest to freshen mentally, if not physically Dempsey: 6 ... didn't do anything wrong ... but then I don't remember him doing anything! Doughty: 8.5 ... a gem Davison; 8.5 ... found the password to unlock his beast mode. Terrific reactions for his goal. Green: 8 ... looked good Forster-Caskey: 7.5 ... welcome back Jake Williams: 7.5 ... we've missed you Jonny! Referee: 2 ... bellend. Let West Brom get away with far too much.
Phillips: 7 Kicking poor as usual, couple of good saves Lockyer: 8 Rare mistake for their first. Rest of the game his usual high standard. Oshilaja: 7 Stood up well to the physical WBA players. Scrapped hard and looks good in that position Sarr: 7 lost his marker a few times in the first half but what a tackle in the second half. Got better as the game went on. Matthews: 6.5 did ok Pratley; 7 sometimes seemed lost in midfield, other times breaking up play well. Gallagher: 7 not his usual high standard, seemed to play within himself even though it looked as if his family were in the crowd when he went over to see them at full time Dempsey: 4 looked a little lost. I watched him a few times just before he was taken off rather than following play. He was strolling back when we lost the ball and when we won it back would seem to hide rather than running into space. May have tired or may have bottled it. Doughty: 8 He is a real find. Him, Green and Williams are the only players who can take on and go past a player. Davison; 8 stood up to the physical WBA players too and had the better of his marker a few times only to be fouled. Competed well for the long balls and scored. Green: 7 strolled around too much early on but had pace, went past players and got better as the game progressed Forster-Caskey: 6 rusty but some calming touches Williams: 8 didn’t have much of the ball but his presence completely changed our attacking dynamic. Pulled players out of position and is a walking free kick for us. Hemed: 5 Needs longer studs as he kept slipping over. Hasn’t got a the height to jump for long balls and so found it difficult to hold the ball up. Needs more game time. Referee: 5 inconsistent with the yellows, didn’t seem in complete control
