Harness: 8 - Deserved the clean sheet, great penalty save Matthews: 6 - Better tonight albeit against weak opposition, although clumsy with the penalty Elewere: 7 - Decent outing, didnt do much wrong Pearce: 4 - For trying to steal my Jayden's hat-trick Purrington: 8 - No.1 Left-Back in South East London Clare: 7 - Solid, did his job, kept it simple Dobson: 7 - Played some delightful passes at times, deserves a chance in the first team again Morgan: 8 - Thats the sort of creativity we need to see from him in the first team Jaiyesimi: 6 - Wasnt impressed tonight, slowed too many attacks Stockley: 10 (MOTM) - Hat Trick Hero Kirk: 7 - Slowly getting better, just needs a run of games
Clayden: 6 - Havent been impressed, shame after a strong Pre-Season
Referee: 6 - Why do you need to show bookings in a frien... EFL Trophy game?
Harness: 6.5 did everything right and GREAT with his feet...except he duffed up for the goal, it happens Matthews: 5 rubbish crossing, rubbish penalty concession Elerewe: 7 very promising again Pearce: 6.5 gets a mark taken off for a combination of the egregious goalpoaching and the assault on a minor Purrington: 7 so greedy for goals isn't he Clare: 7.5 yeah he tired, but before he tired he took Soton Academy back to school Dobson: 9 can the Gangly Pirlo do it in the league? Morgan: 8.5 can the Erith Iniesta do it in the league? DJ: 7 giving him a generous mark cos although it kept not happening for him he was a serious threat Stockley: 7 some of the easiest goals he'll ever score Kirk: 6 linked nicely enough, but very poor finishing and doesn't appear to want to cross it much Clayden: 4 lol oh dear, at least we have 4? 5? wingers ahead of him Referee: 6
B-T: n/a could have had literally 4 assists Dempsey: n/a won't make it with us
Elerewe: 7.5 Solid, maybe lost his man for the goal.
Pearce: 7 typically Pearcesque
Purrington: 7.5 Good headed goal.
Clare: 6.5 started well tired early.
Dobson: 8 much better than Watson
Morgan: 8 Much better than recently
DJ: 6.5 made the runs, couldn't release the right balls (shots or crosses)
Stockley: 9 if it weren't for the 40 mins quiet spell.
Kirk: 6.5 as per DJ
Clayden: 5 tried hard, maybe tried too hard.
Referee: 2 the difference in his eagerness to book our players over theirs was grating. Also fairly certain Dobson's booking wasn't even a connection let alone a foul, it was all ball...

Harness: 8 saved a pen and 1on1 great distribution, never mind Henderson I’d have no worries if he stood in for McGillivray Matthews: 5.5 got forward ok but crossing poor and got done inside again before conceding a pen Elerewe: 7 cool cookie going to be some player must get him signed up ffs Pearce: 6.5 usual Pearce customery booking for an assault on their player could have seen red scored denying Stockley a hat trick 😆 Purrington: 7 scored and could have had a hat trick hitting woodwork twice Clare: 6.5 put a shift in steady performance Dobson: 7 always available sprayed the ball about well tired 2nd half Morgan: 7.5 best I’ve seen him play this season some lovely through balls DJ: 6 tried too hard decision making poor won’t be dislodging Leko or CBT anytime soon on this performance Stockley: 8.5 extra 2.5 points for goals and an assist otherwise average Kirk: 6 getting better but had one chance where once again he tried to find the corner of the net instead of hitting the target 😤 Clayden: 5 struggled to get to the pace of the game won’t threaten the four wide men in front of him, needs a loan and regular mens football Referee: 5 let a lot go 1st half then went a bit card crazy 2nd half
Harness 8 - MoM. Should've done better with the goal, but pretty much flawless in a busy 2nd half otherwise Matthews 5.5 - Not at the standard of a couple of years ago despite good positioning Elerewe 7 - Amazing how he's now a regular squad player, so assured Pearce 7 - didn't do a lot wrong, great goal 😉 Purrington 8 - Post, bar, assist, goal, shut up the winger, done. Clare 7 - did his vanishing act 2nd half, but strong in the first 45, including winning the pen Dobson 8 - huge passing range, very solid tackling, but isolated 2nd half, which is odd in CM! Morgan - 7 some lovely stuff, but why can't you have any end product?! DJ - 6 Crossing was way off and shown up by CB-T Stockley - 8 Should've had 3... but poached his first well and composed for pen Kirk - 6 Some nice links with Purrington but want to see more direct play. Tied with Clayden for worst shot of the match Claydon 5.5 - fairly anonymous after early panic. Very harsh booking. Ref: 5 got Clayden and Dobson wrong, but how he let Stockley off first half I have no idea. Got the pens correct.
Harness: 8 Some great distribution Matthews: 5.5 Conceded penalty Elerewe: 6.5 Ok Pearce: 6 Always looking for a back pass Purrington: 8 A real threat up top. Seemed to work better with Kirk Clare: 7 Good 1st half. Definitely tiring during 2nd. Praps should of come off earlier. Much more energetic after he left Dobson: 7.5 Some great crossfield passing Morgan: 8 Good performance and distribution DJ: 6 Not the DJ we're used to seeing Stockley: 8 Involved Kirk: 7 Better from him but repeated his Fleetwood chance Clayden: 6 Not really at the races Referee: 5 Couple of questionable yellows and nothing for the foul on Dempsey

I was just checking that someone else had taken care of this.
Harness: 7 Nothing to do first half. Good pen save and commanded his box well
Matthews: 5 Still prone to errors this season and loses a point for that pen Elerewe: 7 Pearce: 7 Purrington: 8 Had a good game. Nice to see him get forward. And bagged a goal Clare: 6.5 Improving but faded badly before subbed Dobson: 7 Had a good all energy game Morgan: 7.5 Had a good game. Still fecking useless dead ball delivery DJ: 6 He can do everything, except a decent final ball Stockley: 8 Did what he does and bagged some goals Kirk: 6. Bright start but anonymous 2nd half. Seems to rely on somebody overlapping. Clayden: 5. He's a fast runner Referee: 5 Got too card happy. Killing their advantage moment was rank amateur
B-T: 7 Great cameo and actually helped swing the game back our way when they were looking like overrunning us. Our best crosser Dempsey: n/a
Harness: 7.5 - an impressive display. Commanded his area well and whilst the forward beat him to the cross for their goal, Elerewe had totally lost his man and he had to come for it. A good strong hand for the penalty save and some excellent distribution Matthews: 5 - some poor crossing and waved a lazy leg at their winger to concede the penalty. Playing well below his usual standard and this is becoming a problematical position for us Elerewe: 6 - not too much to contend with on the night Pearce: 5.5 - a little crude and industrial Purrington: 7.5 - our best defender and very impressive in the opponent's box Clare: 6 - ok but ran out of steam Dobson: 7 - some very good cross field passes to open up the game Morgan: 8 - I thought he was our best player on the night. Some lovely forward passes into space, although you have to wonder what possessed Adkins and his coaching staff to think that they could convert Albie into a number 10 DJ: 5 - a very frustrating display. Plenty of ability to beat his man but tends to hold onto the ball too long and his decision making is poor Stockley: 7 - a relatively quiet game but so nearly had a hat-trick Kirk: 6 - a few nice touches but a bit of a tepid performance. Missed a good chance - sometimes it's worth putting your laces through the ball, rather than always going for the stylish curler Clayden: 4.5 - struggled to make an impact and was snatching at things. Would benefit from a loan Referee: 5 - went OTT on the yellow cards in the second half, although then let a nasty looking challenge on Dempsey go unpunished towards the end
Harness: 8 every time ive seen him his done well and quality distribution Matthews: 4 gave penalty away and was caught out a few times,one great interception,mistakes outweigh his good work by far Elerewe: 6.5 decent enough Pearce: 7 agree he should only play in cup games Purrington: 8 played well could of scored a couple Clare: 6.5 good 1st half faded 2nd half Dobson: 7 improving Morgan: 6 I just dont get the high marks,some good forward passes puts in the effort but puts us in trouble a lot DJ: 5.5 needs some confidence Stockley: 8 2 goals done his job Kirk: 6 hope theres more to him than ive seen so far Clayden: 5 too soon for him Referee: 4
Harness: 7.5 - Really confident display with couple of top saves and quick precise distribution. Matthews: 6 - Couple of errors and conceded a penalty but otherwise was alright. Elerewe: 6.5 - Solid comfortable and looks more assured then the Southampton defenders. Pearce: 7 - Steady some firm challenges and lead the line well. Purrington: 7.5 - Extra half mark for his goal and assist. Positive display. Clare: 6.5 - Great first half bit out of sorts 2nd Tires after 60. Dobson: 7.5 - Very energetic display in covering players, intercepting the ball, decent movement and played some lovely passes short and long. Morgan: 7.5 - Good performance from his pressing, recieving the ball and just quality of touch and passing. DJ: 6 - Wanted to make things happen but with risks it either comes off or it doesn't. Didn't happen for him tonight. Stockley: 8 - MOTM Hold up play, little flicks, disrupting the opposition, winning his headers, getting on the scoresheet. Kirk: 6 - Some nice touches but wasn't involved 2nd half and needs to show more in the final third.
Clayden: 5.5 - Wanted to make a impact with his pace and directness but we are winning comfortably sometimes showing patience and keeping the ball is the better option.
Referee: 5 Some odd decisions second half especially couple of the fouls/bookings.
Harness: 8 looks an excellent prospect Matthews: 5.5 Elerewe: 7 Hardly put a foot wrong Pearce: 7 Solid tonight Purrington: 8 extra for the goal Clare: 7 ran out of stamina but first half good Dobson: 7 still prone to losing the ball in our half, would be fatal in a league game Morgan: 7. Some good passing DJ: 5 skilful but poor decision making Stockley: 8 led the line well and worked hard Kirk: 4 Can't believe some of the scores. He passed back all the time and missed a good chance. Contributed nothing. Clayden: 5 Raw Referee 4 inexplicable bookings
