Henderson 7 Solly 6 Fox 6 Johnson 6 Ben Haim 6 Gudmundsson 6 Cousins 7 Jackson 6 Bulot 6 Watt 7 Vetokele 8 Buyens 5 defending was slightly better than against Norwich, but we where lucky that Brentford wasted a number of good oppurtunities to score. I fear Bulot is light to weight until he scored had not done that much. Buyons was just about average, made many poor passes and is poor at tackling.
Henderson - 8 didn't have loads to do, but very solid Solly - 7 didn't put a foot wrong today, just hope we're not risking a long term injury Fox - 6 Not as bad as some are making out, had two players to mark a lot of the time. Needs to work on his offensive game Johnson - 8 excellent first game, real organiser at the back, made TBH up his game too Ben Haim - 7 looks more like himself today Gudmundsson - 8 The man is class Cousins - 7 needs a few more games in the middle to get up to speed, but his energy made a huge difference. Jackson - 7 shame he had to go off injured, was looking a lot better with Cousins alongside him Bulot - 7 didn't quite see the performance others did, but then I didn't think he looked that bad Tuesday. Took his goal well. Watt - 9 did everything you could want from a striker apart from score, picked the right ball a lot! Vetokele - 8.5 more like it. Much happier with someone to share the workload. Chased everything and a good finish. Buyens - 6.5 slightly better. One pass to Bulot wasn't miss weighted, Bulot had stopped his run when he would have been through, shame.
Henderson 9 - everyone, including the crowd are more confident with him between the sticks, brilliant. Solly 7 - average for Sols. Fox 5 - Too close to the centre halves, Mark your wingers space. Could have cost us a goal. Johnson 8 - solid and sure us up. Impressed. Ben Haim 8.5 - Brilliant. Gudmundsson 9 - superb work rate and superb finish for goal. Awesome. Cousins 7.5 - solid. Jackson 6.5 - Shamehe got injured. Bulot 8.5 really good winger display. Watt 9.5 MOM - great work rate, great skill, unlucky not to score. Vetokele - 9 worked hard and touch was mush better. Buyens 8 - poor start, great end. Tackled and hassled like a Kisheshev (sp). Harsh marks on here, but moaning 2-0 up in the East Stand!
Fox 5? Too close to the centre halves, Mark your wingers space. Gray is 5'10 so crosses not really a problem. Their greatest threat in air was Douglas arriving late. More important to defend narrow once Pritchard moved inside. Dispossesed their pacy RB at least 3 times out wide. Good shift.
Too narrow though, was standing next to Johnson, literally on his toes! Two times the ball got over his head to the winger in a dangerous position. If he is that narrow, he needed Bulot to cover the winger. We're taking about moving 2 meters to his left, Johnson and Luzon were telling him the same.
Henderson 8 very solid Solly 7.5 defended well, didn't really attack but very tidy Fox 6.5 needs a bit more experience at this level but a decent shift Ben Haim 8 effortlessly classy, probable player of the season at this point Johnson 6.5 did well & a fine presence, docked marks for some seriously clumsy fouls around our box Gudmundsson 8 lovely goal, did well otherwise Cousins 7.5 drove us on with such energy, cannot be returned to the wing now Jackson 7.5 looked useful while he was on & clearly inspired them Bulot 9 ran for 90 minutes and played a part in all 3 goals, great great effort Watt 9 terrifying Vetokele 9 somewhere in between 'titanic effort' and 'terrifying' Buyens 7 awww he triiiiiied
