Phillips: 6 could he have come for that corner? Didn't have that much to do Lockyer: 7 decent display Oshilaja: 5 not his best - passing radar off and didn't contest the ball for their winner - ducked, even Sarr: 7 imperious for the most part, put in loads of tackles and kept possession - did arguably let Bauer give him the slip, but there were other defenders in a position to attack the ball who didn't (see above). Defeat wasn't the defence's fault, as usual Matthews: 6.5 thought he was mostly pretty good, albeit his delivery wasn't so great Pratley: 6.5 good hustle but often appeared confused when presented with ball at feet Dempsey: 6 a fairly lightweight and ineffectual display; marked generously as he got a few things right Doughty: 7 fine assist; was perhaps a bit exposed defensively but oozes class Williams: 6.5 couldn't really get into it Green: 7 good goal; faded Davison: 4 actually fairly dreadful; put in a shift Morgan: 6 began to affect things but what was with those weird corners Oztumer: 6 looked like he might make something happen; tidy Referee: 6.5 thought he missed a few things but largely okay
Hemed: n/a beginning to look the part; must start soon
Phillips: 6.5 Lockyer: 7 Oshilaja: 5.5 his fault for winner Sarr: 7.5 Matthews: 6.5 Pratley: 6.5 Did his job but needs the quality around him Dempsey: 5 Doughty: 7.5 Williams: 6.5Decent given he is still recovering Green: 6.5 Davison: 6 Needed a bit of help. Worked hard but not effective Morgan: 6.5 Thought he was decent when he came on Oztumer: 6
Phillips: 7 - Standard game, couldnt do much about the goals Lockyer: 6 - Decent display against a still rapid Scott Sinclair Oshilaja: 5 - Had an off day this afternoon Sarr: 6 - Blew hot and cold at times for me, thankfully the former more than the latter Matthews: 6 - Solid game @ Wing-Back Pratley: 6 - Ran his socks off as always, not an attacking threat Dempsey: 5 - Started really well, forgot he was still playing late in the game Doughty: 6 - Struggled with Sarr down the Left flank today, still a threat though Williams: 6 - Lacking full fitness Green: 6 - Just doesnt have the pace to threaten, needs support Davison: 5 - Poor game today, grew into it eventually
Morgan: 6 - Decent when he was on the ball Oztumer: 5 - Slow to grow into the game but lacked fitness Hemed: N/A - Best game I've seen from him
Phillips: 6 Kicking still wild. Goals not his fault Lockyer: 6 Apart from Bauer's goal, fairly steady Oshilaja: 7 MOM Good defensive headers Sarr: 6 See Lockyer Matthews: 6 Wasted several hoodcrossing opportunities Pratley: 5 Weakest game for a while, missing Gallagher? Dempsey: 5 Steady but never looking for a forward pass Doughty: 6. Good going forward but not a full back. Most of their danger came past him Williams: 5 Made no attacking impact Green: 6 For the goal Davison: 4 Poor and incapable of winning or holding the ball Morgan: 5 Not much impact Oztumer: 5 As above Referee 5 Nothing tragic
Phillips: 6 did his job Lockyer: 6 did his job Oshilaja: 7 solid. Made some good tackles Sarr: 6 did his job Matthews: 6.5 did well going up the wing Pratley: 6 ran out of steam. Didnt stop tho Dempsey: 5 not up to it yet. A weakness. Doughty: 7 solid and assured. Needs support Williams: 5.5 laboured. Green: 7 looked a dangerous outlet. Needs support Davison: 6 put himself about, looked tired. Morgan: 5 not up to it yet. Oztumer: 6 looked ok but not much influence Referee: 5.5 same poor standard of officiating in this league
Phillips: 7 No chance with either goal. Good handling from crosses. Lockyer: 6 Oshilaja: 6.5 Sarr: 6.5 Matthews: 6.5 Pratley: 6.5 If only he was a bit quicker... Dempsey: 5.5 Doughty: 6.5 Williams: 6 Not quite up to speed yet. Not sure why he's so central. Better on the wing imho Green: 6 Davison: 5.5 Improved a bit when Hemed came on Morgan: 5.5 Oztumer: 6.5 We improved after he came on Hemed: N/A - Think he should start v. Fulham Referee: 6
Phillips: 6 no chance with first. Didn’t see the second as was in the middle of a sneezing fit. Lockyer: 6 decent enough Oshilaja: 6 are Lockyer Sarr: 6.5 cleared everything first half. Second half got turned too many times. Looks tired. Matthews: 6 no complaints Pratley: 6 looked tired. Improved when we went to a diamond Dempsey: 6 better than last week. Looked lost at times. Still don’t think he’s ready for this level. Doughty: 8 worked tirelessly. Good assist and they looked worried when he had the ball. Williams: 6 couldn’t really get into the game. I hope we brought him off with a view for Fulham. Green: 7 extra .5 for the goal. His pace is going to come in handy. Nothing really came off for him after the goal Davison: 5 spent so much time on the wing. Didn’t really understand it. The air shot summed up his game. He’s shown us what he can do with his performance last week. Today he was poor. Morgan: 6 got on the ball a few times. Didn’t do a great deal with it. Always looking to play It forward. Oztumer: 4 his size makes it so hard for him to come on and make an impact. 92nd minute and he squares it straight to one of their players on the edge of our own box. Ridiculous. Referee: 6 no complaints. Their time wasting was a bit of a joke though
Hemed: n/a want to see him start up top next to Davison.
I thought we were set up wrong. 1st half we had no shape whatsoever. We improved when the subs came on. There were definitely chances to pinch another goal but we didn’t deserve anything from the game.
Improved because our shape changed. That changed when the subs came on. I could’ve been clearer. I thought Morgan and Hemed were OK. I thought Oztumer was pants but clearly not fit.
Phillips: 6.5 - solid as ever Lockyer: 6 - perhaps a little below par but generally ok Oshilaja: 6 - ditto Sarr: 6 - a good first half but he became increasingly shaky as the game progressed, recklessly overcommitting himself on a couple of occasions Matthews: 5 - his poor crossing in the second half drove me nuts Pratley: 5 - worked hard as usual but his use of the ball was poor. Looked jaded towards the end (as well he might do, given the number of games he's had to play) Dempsey: 5 - a couple of good moments but generally ineffective Doughty: 8: MoM - our biggest threat by far - in fact, our only real threat Williams: 6 - started the game well but faded a little as Preston dominated possession. Good to get an hour into him Green: 6 - looks dangerous but pretty isolated and lacked support Davison: 5 - struggled to make any impact against their very solid central defenders. Feeding off a diet of long, high balls and scraps Morgan: 5 - unable to influence the game Oztumer: 5 - ditto Referee: 6 - ok but happy to tolerate Preston's time wasting (not that they really needed to resort to that)
Phillips: 6 not much chance with goals kicking poor today Lockyer: 7 defended well stuck to his task Oshilaja: 6.5 ok 1st half subbed tactically Sarr: 6.5 Eight first half, five second period. Matthews: 6.5 acquitted himself well has the RB slot to lose Pratley: 6 never stopped, not pretty at times stumbling into tackles knackered Dempsey: 5.5 Ok neat and tidy first half faded second Doughty: 7 our main threat but defensively caught out at times Williams: 6 tried to ignite us but not much joy. Good to have him back though Green: 6 took his goal well, faded, not as pacey as I'd hoped for Davison: 5.5 not his day, ploughed a loan furrow at times and got bullied Morgan: 5.5 charged about a bit, sloppy and no killer ball that I was hoping for Oztumer: 6 some flashes of quality glad he's available again Referee: 6
Once again we needed to score three to win a game. Pratley got left two on one out wide for their first which was a worldly in the postage stamp. Second goal from a free header at set piece was totally unacceptable and cost us a point.
Phillips: 7 Lockyer: 6 Oshilaja: 6 Sarr: 6.5 some errors as per Sarr but also one of our only attacking threats trying to make things happen Matthews: 6 Pratley: 6 tried but not as good as the West Brom game Dempsey: 4 can see he is a tidy player but out of his depth and still don’t see how he is preferred to Morgan Doughty: 7.5 MOM main attacking threat when got the ball Williams: 6.5 love the guy hopefully this done him good and fit enough to start weds Green: 6.5 scored and great pace and first half hr then faded but not given much service Davison: 5 poor today don’t think he won one header but tried as always Morgan: 6 our best passer of the ball Oztumer: 6 apart from the pass at end can see he wants to make things happen Referee: 5
Phillips: 7 Decent saves. Lockyer: 7 Crucial interceptions at times. Oshilaja: 6 Good enough. Sarr: 5 Always a hair's breadth away from disaster. Matthews: 4 Beat the first man with your cross please. Pratley: 5 Ineffective and knackered. Dempsey: 6 Fine. Doughty: 7 Good when he got the ball. Williams: 6 Knackered. Off the pace. Green: 5 Poor touches and bad decision making. Davison: 4 Not the same player as WBA. Morgan: 5 Not much to note. Oztumer: 5 Few attacks fizzled due to poor decision making. Referee: 7 Decent enough at this level.
