Phillips: 6 nearly gave them a goal by not coming for a bouncing ball. Following on for his mistake at heading a ball to Ched Evans last week I would change next week.
Solly: 6 Good on 1-1, but 1st touch on so many passes was embarrassingly poor. Never going past a player. I think Dyksteel is better. Bielik: 7.5 dealt with everything that came his way. Sarr: 9.5 would have been 10 if that shot had gone in! Purrington: 6 Solid. Pleased with that. Cullen: 8 ran the show Reeves: 7 good goal. Pity he was taken off. Williams: 6.5 Fosu: 4 beat his player so superbly in the first half, and then tried to do it again instead of passing. The sort of decision making that says you will never make it? Marshall: 4 If you get near the goal line, cut it back, not take a shot. If you can’t get that bit right, give up. We had two waiting for a tap in. Poor. Vetokele: 6 We need the midfield to be a bit braver with their passing. You have to see the run, and then play the ball. If you can’t deliver you have reached your level. Blame them more than Veto. Parker: 7 Quite impressed. Good runs, got to some great headers. Would be my choice to play with Taylor. Didn’t think I would be saying that. Referee: 9 got nearly everything right. Did think he was not robust enough at dealing with their time wasting.
Phillips: 8 done real well not at fault for thier goal Solly: 7 simply Solly Bielik: 7 good CB Sarr: 9.5 MoM again Purrington: 7 wish Henry would’ve passed the ball to me Cullen: 7 game In holding roll Reeves: 7 should not have been taken off not the best first half Williams: 7 thought we should just keep giving him the ball Fosu: 3 poor Henry really Poor Marshall: 1 worst game he played can’t cross the ball for toffee Vetokele: 5 no impact Parker: 7 should have started Referee: 2 really piss poor
Hackett-Fairchild: n/a should have won it Lapslie: n/a
Phillips: 6 not much to do Solly: 7 usual dependable self Bielik: 8 class Sarr: 8 some great passing and touches Purrington: 6 steady Cullen: 9 ran the midfield, not his fault the flair players didn’t perform Reeves: 7 great header Williams:6 flatters to deceive Fosu: 4 poor toda Marshall: 5 good cross for the goal but poor otherwise Vetokele: 4 just not involved Parker: 5 one good header but otherwise no impact Referee: 7 one of the better ones
Phillips: 7 Unlucky with the goal, good saves late on Solly: 7 Usual steady performance Bielik: 7 Always looking to come forward Sarr: 8 Looking more and more assured. Purrington: 7 Steady performance. Cullen: 7.5 Always busy, works very hard./ Reeves: 6.5 Quietish performance, extra half point for the goal. Williams:8.5 MOM Has a touch of class which stands out. Fosu: 4 Poor. The ability's there, the football brain isn't Marshall: 5 Got into good positions, final ball awful. Vetokele: 4.5 Offered very little Parker: 7 Encouraging cameo performance, likely starter next week. Referee:
Phillips: 7 couldn't do much with the goal - a bit shakier than the last few games I've seen him Solly: 6.5 Bielik: 6.5 had a mare of a first half and improved loads in the back 3. Go figure Sarr: 8 our best player by miles. Wish his shot had gone in Purrington: 6.5 unlucky to be sacrificed at HT Cullen: 6.5 Reeves: 7 got a goal. Should have stayed on Williams: 7.5 Fosu: 4 poor Marshall: 5 also poor but at least got one accurate cross in and tried Vetokele: 5 anonymous Parker: 6.5 looked up for it Referee: 5 - on reflection got the red card right, but our bookings were all soft and they should have had more for the timewasting
Hackett-Fairchild - needs a loan. Not ready for the first team.
Phillips: 6 - One shaky moment and one or two dodgy kicks. Otherwise pretty solid. Solly: 5 - Sloppy. Bielik: 7 - Solid. Sarr: 8 - Him and Bielik were our most effective attacking outlet. Purrington: 6 - Solid. Cullen: 6 - Solid(ish) Reeves: 7 - Shouldn’t have been substituted. Williams: 6 - Clearly a good player but never seems to lead to any goal scoring opportunities. Fosu: 4 - Frustrating. Marshall: 6 - Think he’s been overly criticised by fans and manager alike. Vetokele: 5 - Anonymous. Parker: 7 - Should have started. Referee: 6 - One of the better refs i’ve seen this season (-1 for the lack of punishment for clear time wasting). Probably says more about the standard of refereeing we’ve seen at The Valley this season.
Hackett-Fairchild: Not ready and the game changed when he came on. Reminded me of when Robinson chucked Lapslie on against Blackpool in 17/18 season. We were in control but he wasn’t ready and the game turned and ended up conceding a 91st min equaliser. Could have easily been a similar story yesterday. Lapslie: Looked lively as ever.
Phillips: 7 good presence, like his throws Solly: 6.5 better at CH Bielik: 8 Love watching a CB who can play Sarr: 9 sublime Purrington: 6 hurry back Lewis Cullen: 7.5 reminds me of Parker (Scott) wonder if Hammers might let him go Reeves: 7 better. More like we were promised Williams: 7.5 must be nightmare to mark Fosu: 6.5 some good amongst the bad Marshall: 6 extra half for part in goal Vetokele: 6.5 hard to play alone up front while not fit Parker: 7.5 needs to start Referee: 5 not a single booking fot time-wasting which started 1st half.
at the Valley or from a live stream your marks please:
Phillips: 6.5 ... a small mix-up with Bielik first half, a couple of dodgy kicks, no chance with the goal, good saves at the end preserved a point Solly: 5.5 ... not his best game Bielik: 6 ... some suspect moments at the back, had a cracking shot second half Sarr: 9 ... MoTM by a country mile. Defensively solid, had one of the best shots of the match, put in one of the best crosses, skinned a couple of defenders on a rampaging run into the box Purrington: 6 ... didn't do much wrong first half, unlucky to be sacrificed for Parker at HT Cullen: 6 ... OK Reeves: 6 ... a mixed bag: scored the goal, put in some good corners, but gave away the ball for their goal and some of his other play was ropey Williams: 6.5 ... pick of the midfield Fosu: 3.5 ... oh dear Marshall: 5.5 ... good cross for the goal but the rest of his deliveries were awful Vetokele: 5.5 ... didn't do much but, in his defence, he didn't have any service Parker: 7 ... looked good when he came on, surely must be in the starting XI next week Referee: 5 ... too weak, allowed Southend to get away with too many cynical fouls and disgraceful timewasting
Phillips: 7 - made a couple of very important blocks and saves at the end, unlucky with the goal. Solly: 6 - should've been played in numerous times in the first half, but we moved the ball too slow. Should've been on the right of the three second half. Bielik: 5.5 - nearly scored but showing his inexperience and potentially playing in midfield has not benefited him with his decision making, takes far too many touches. Now misses two games. Sarr: 8 - best player on the pitch. He is fast becoming a fan favourite. Purrington: 5 - can't give more than that as he only played first half where he done okay but he isn't Page who would've suited us far better when they went down to 10. Cullen: 6.5 - kept us ticking over well but doesn't offer much going forward. I know that wasn't his job but even his delivery yesterday was poor. Reeves: 7 - okay first half but really needs to take on board what Bows and Jacko are telling him, better in the second half, a good header, and I thought he should've stayed on. Williams: 6.5 - holds onto the ball for a long time but he is a very good player, wrap him up in cotton wool as he is getting kicked so much. Fosu: 2 - waste of time so not wasting my time writing how poor he was yesterday. Marshall: 5 - out of position for a lot of the game but it was worth a go, he was unlucky to come off I feel and it was a good assist. Vetokele: 5.5 - good to see him get 90 minutes, looked sharper than I thought he would be and probably should've scored at one point, service to him was poor and tempo of our play didn't help his game. Parker: 6 - only other decent option on the bench that we had going forward. Played okay but hope there is much more to come. Referee: 6 - correct decision to send their man off. Reeves' booking was not a yellow, otherwise he was fair.

Bielik: 6.5 Some 8.5 stuff some 4.5 stuff hence averaging out at 6.5
Sarr: 8 Head and shoulders above the others in all senses
Purrington: 6.5 Substituted early in order to change formation not because of poor form
Cullen: 6.5 Busy one or two missed passes but overall did his job
Reeves: 6.5 His mistake led to their goal but he did well to score ours so average overall
Williams: 6.5 Some good things but led to little. Class is evident but jury out on end product.
Fosu: 5.5 A shadow of his former self. One cross was grotesque
Marshall: 6.5 Gets the extra .5 for his assist. Can't fault his effort but his crossing, other than the assist, was poor
Vetokele: 6 Ran out of gas but tried to keep going and make his runs
Parker: 6.5 Encouraging.
