Know it's home to a div 2 outfit but could it be that green Hollands Stephens and (cough) Cook outperformed Saturday's unit of Pritch Gower Hughes and Harriott??
Excellent stuff. Good to see Pig had the guts to take a 90th minute penalty. Confident lad. Powell might have a few selection decisions to make in the midfield come Middlesbrough
Comfortable victory and good game in which Oxford definitely played their part by coming to play football. Was encouraged by Sordell's cameo and think he will get us a fair few this season.
Church getting his first two goals for us after what sounded like a tricky pre-season and Pigott gets his first - that has to fill both with confidence.
Stroll in the park really and we can't say that too often in the cup. Hollands , Cort and Green were the pick of the players but none can come under any criticism really . Every out field player changed from Saturday and we strolled it. Very good .
Wasn't at the game so may be wrong, but am I the only one who would like to see Hollands play in central midfield this weekend if JJ isn't fit? Thought he was very unfortunate to get so few games last year (obviously injuries had a role to play) but he has plenty of good attributes. Hard-working, good tackler, decent passer and pops up with useful goals.
Impressive throughout. Wood looked solid at the back, church took both goals well and piggott work hard and looked a handful. Looking forward to Saturday now. Thought Cort did as much as he could to earn a start.
Dale stephens was outstanding along with hollands, both won the midfield battle. Kept and used the ball wel . Stephens out shone hollands in my opinion, hoping both of them can show this form in league games.
Special mention to green and piggot, both worked their socks off. Green combined well with wilson and piggot was a constant pain for their cb's.

He put a good shift in today, good closing down and simple but effective passing.

Cort motm for me
Professional four nil win without getting into top gear. Church gets two and Pigott his first senior goal in injury time. A very satisfied Addick.
No real stand outs for MOM but I'll give it to Pigott for working his nuts off for 90 mins and getting on the scoresheet.
Any seeding in the next round?
Comments please from those who went please!
