In the circumstances that’s 10 all round from me. There is only one person to blame for that result, not Lee Bowyer, not any of the players, and not even injuries. Blame Roland Duchatelet.
Phillips: 7 - Unlucky with the two goals, made some important saves Solly: 6 - Wasnt really a RB today yet made some really good clearances Bauer: 6 - Not impressed today Pearce: 6 - Needs to be a better leader Page: 5 - Barely noticed him Lapslie: 5 - Good in stages, experience will do him wonders, disappeared in the second Pratley: 6 - Good solid performance Aribo: 8 (MOTM) - Solid, how SKY didnt pick him as theirs is beyond me Marshall: 7 - Continued on from his end of season form Grant: 6 - Excellent in the first half yet no service in the second Taylor: 6 - Same as Karlan
Phillips: 5 loses a mark for their goal although maybe unsighted Solly: 6 gutsy and kept going Bauer: 5 lucky to get away with ball watching on at least three occasions Pearce: 5 fly kick first then turned his back for their 1st goal Page: 5 wrong side of his man for their 2nd goal got mugged off all second half Marshall: 5.5 worked hard but no end product dead balls poor Aribo: 5.5 silky skills but doesn't do enough hard work defensively Pratley: 6 old head used his experience but struggled longer game went on Lapslie: 6 ok debut some nice touches but you can't play him with Aribo Taylor: 6 took his pen well little service Grant: 5.5 Good first half anonymous second period
Could have done with some fresh legs on 60 mins but with sweet FA on the bench it weren't going to happen. Cheers RD you Cnut!
Phillips: 5 - one good save, one crap goal Solly: 6 - a fighter but out of position many times Bauer: 5 - gave away needless fouls Pearce: 5 - too loose for their first goal Page: 6 - great pass to Grant first half, defensively suspect Marshall: 6.5 - ran his socks off, no end product, shite corners Aribo: 7 - looked a class above, please don't sell him Pratley: 6 - sometimes anonymous, not match ready? Lapslie: 6.5 - looked lively, sometimes lost Taylor: 6 - good first half, offered nothing second Grant: 6.5 - good running and pace, too petulant second
Scores would have been much higher if it was just based on the first half, much lower based only on the second.
Phillips: 6 great save from free kick and a header, but should have stopped the equaliser Solly: 7 marauding, battling display Bauer: 6.5 handled Maja first half, not so much second half Pearce: 6.5 struggled second half like Bauer Page: 5.5 booked and stays down after challenges far too long, like he's convinced himself he's injured Marshall: 6 couple of decent runs, but fuck me his delivery at times is awful Aribo: 7 bossed their midfield for most of the game, tired at the end Pratley: 7 calm and considered, had a decent effort saved and battles well Lapslie: 6 headless chicken at times, seemingly chasing the ball at will, but battled well and technically sound Taylor: 7 extra half a point for the penalty, caused them all sorts of problems and looks a good acquisition Grant: 7 they couldn't handle him first half, second half the shift to a back 3 nullified him
Phillips: 6 - Ok, couple of good saves. Not sure about the goals. Solly: 6.5 - battled on in true Chris Solly style Bauer: 7 - steady Pearce: 7 - taken out by Gooch - b*S£$***** Page: 6 - Lost Gooch for goal. Thought he was going to be injured but battled on. Marshall: 7 - Did well first half and gave Solly good support Aribo: 7 - Joined up play well, looked good Pratley: 6.5 - Good debut. Shame he didn't play in Lyle Taylor in first half. Faded second half. Lapslie: 6 - Did ok first half, but faded and should have leathered shot in first half Taylor: 8 - Great first half, composed penalty. Very promising debut. Faded second half. Grant: 7 - Won penalty and always looking to push forward
Bowyer - instilled a good team spirit. Maybe the thing that prevents Charlton being relegated if Duchatelet further bleeds the squad dry. Team needed freshening up second half but had no real options.
Duchatlelet -This defeat completely at his doorstep with the painfully thin squad. 5 subs is a disgrace.
Phillips: 6 - Very slow to get down for the first goal, decent save from the free kick however Solly: 7 - Thought Solly did ok actually, defends well but doesn't get forward much Bauer: 6.5 Can't complain, likes an aimless ball forward out of play Pearce: 6.5 Did well, poor challenge for the booking, essential he is fit Page: 5.5 Not very good on today's showing Marshall: 6.5 So good defensively for a wide man, shame his end product is poor, left foot corner... Aribo: 7.5 Bossed it first half, don't sell him Roland you prick Pratley: 7 Like him, unlucky with his first time effort. Lapslie: 7 Must be a pain to play against, should have done better with his shot in the first half, take a touch! Taylor: 7.5 Good link up play, but pretty toothless second half Grant: 7.5 Caused all sorts of problems first half, going to be an important player for us this season
Phillips: 6 at fault for 1st goal Solly: 7 back towards his best Bauer: 6 not his best display 2nd half Pearce: 7 did well Page: 7 did well Marshall: 7 better defensively, poor distribution Aribo: 6 1st half 8 2nd half 5 Pratley: 6 not quite up to the pace yet Lapslie: 5.5 disappeared for the last half hour Taylor: 7 looks a handful Grant: 6 pace but zero tracking back
What spirit! Made me very proud, cant go below 7 on any player.
Phillips: 7 (One soft goal, a couple of really good saves) Solly: 8,5 (Please stay healthy!) Bauer: 7 (Stood off to much before 1-1) Pearce: 7,5 (A couple of bad challenges, but mostly very good ones) Page: 7 (Asked to do too much, should never have played all nearly 100 minutes) Marshall: 8 (Despite set pieces, great preformance) Aribo: 8,5 (Clearly the best player on the pitch for 60 min, faded a bit) Pratley: 8,5 (Not fit?) Lapslie: 9,5 MOM (Unbelievable running defensively, give him the ball more often on the attack!) Taylor: 7,5 (Work on your left foot!) Grant: 7,5 (Great 1st half)
Phillips: 7 Made a couple of good saves, let himself down on one of the goals. Solly: 7 Looks much better than last season, a battler, we are going to need him to stay fit. Bauer: 6 OK, could have had a goal from a corner Pearce: 7 Good from him, gutted about the injury Page: 6 Did OK Marshall: 7 Played really well, bar awful set pieces. Aribo: 7 Quality in the first half, some lovely touches, but quiet second half. Pratley: 6 Some good work at times, looks like he should have come off, ran out of gas. Lapslie: 7 Impressed me, good energy going forwards, put in a few cracking challenges too, could hear Bowyer cheer him on. Taylor: 7 Some good running first half, calm penalty. Grant: 6 Great run for the penalty, looks dangerous with his pace, promising.
At the SoL, on Sky or a stream your marks between 0.5 and 10.0, just copy the list below:
Phillips: 6 - fault for their goal but made a couple of excellent saves Solly: 7 - made some great tackles Bauer: 6 - average Pearce: 6 - ditto Page: 7 - some great runs & crosses Marshall: 6 - useless corners & crosses Aribo: 7 - good on the ball Pratley: 7 - ditto Lapslie: 6.5 - did well but ran out of steam Taylor: 7 - great pen but like all, ran out of steam Grant: 7.5 - made the pen & his pace scared them enough their manager change it up at h/t.
Phillips: 6 - Thought he did well apart from the first goal. Solly: 6.5 - Got stuck in. Bauer: 6 - Good and bad. Pearce: 6 - as above. Page: 6 - as above again really, good first half. Marshall: 6.5 - great work rate and covering, just that final ball still Aribo: 7 - so good at holding onto the ball. Needed to play it simple nearer the end of the game to keep a hold of the ball, and was a statue for their last goal. Pratley: 7 - played very well, noticeably tired near the end. Lapslie: 6.5 - got stuck in and is calm on the ball. No reason I could see today why he cannot play a decent part this season. Taylor: 6 - 7 first half - 5 second - seemed tired and little service second half. Grant: 6 - similar to Taylor, but did keep running, didn't see enough of the ball second half.

Page: 5 typical Page, good going forward, not great defending, nearly another injury.

Aribo: 1 rubbish absolutely trash, no future in the game. (8 MOM talking him down so we don't sell him ;-))
Pratley: 6 what we need but obviously not match fit.
Lapslie: 6 alright, should have done better with the one chance he had.
Taylor: 6.5 going to be a hero, when he is fit!
Grant: 6. 5 good run to win the pen, no service.
Bowyer 8 did what he could, starting 11 matched up well with theirs, bench strength won it.
