Henderson - 7 One very good save not a lot to do but talks to the defence all the time Holmes-Dennis - 7.5 Got stronger as the game went on great work for the goal Bauer - 6.5 Caught out a bit 1st half came into his own to see the game out Sarr - 7 The occasional mis kick but defended well Fox - 5.5 Had the runaround from Gray 1st half poor distribution but stuck at it Diarra - 7.5 Tireless effort again which defies his age Cousins - 7 Put in a good shift seemed to be on the left a lot but got on with it Jackson - 7.5 Captain Fantastic to the rescue again LEGEND Berg Gudmundsson - 6.5 Started to impose himself the longer the game went on Lookman - 8 A star in the making, worried their defenders good work in the goal build up Makienok - 6.5 Did ok but nothing special today Vaz Te - 7 Ring rusty but I like the look of him should've scored to seal the deal late on

Henderson - 7 but with some dodgy moments Holmes-Dennis - 7.5 think he only used his right foot once, but worth waiting for Bauer - 7 Sarr - 7 Fox - 6 hoofed it up field too often Diarra - 7.5 Cousins - 6 Jackson - 8 Berg Gudmundsson - 6.5 Lookman - 8 amazing confidence to make the run from the free kick to set up the goal Makienok - 6 Vaz Te - 7
Henderson -7 Holmes-Dennis -8 Impressive second performance on his wrong side Bauer -8 Loved the run down the wing! Sarr -7.5 Improving game by game. Looks much better with Diarra protecting in front Fox -7.5 I thought he kept Gray pretty quiet. In this formation both full backs defend narrow and he did well in nullifying one of the championships rising stars. Some disappointing distribution. Diarra -9 Dominating performance in front of the back four Cousins -7 Jackson -8 Berg Gudmundsson -7.5 Lookman -7.5 Makienok -7 Vaz Te - 7
Henderson - 6.5 Dropped the ball a few times Holmes-Dennis - 8 Left footer playing right back did really well Bauer - 8 Solid and made a great run down the right wing in the second half Sarr - 8 Getting better every game Fox - 7.5 Solid game today against a tricky winger Diarra - 8.5 Absolute rock Cousins - 6.5 Plenty of energy as usual Jackson - 8 Brilliant goal Berg Gudmundsson - 7 Had some good moments Lookman - 8 Fantastic performance from the youngster Makienok - 6 Never really in the game today Vaz Te - 7 Could be a great signing once fit, showed a couple of nice touches
Henderson - 7 Important saves and influence. Holmes-Dennis - 8 Lovely cross for the goal and a couple of great bits of skill. Bauer - 7.5 Really came into it in the second half. Looked very strong. Sarr - 6.5 Some good interceptions and used the ball nicely. Just want to see a little bit more determination when they are about to shoot. Fox - 6.5 Passing was a bit wonky but in the end he was defending well. Diarra - 7.5 We probably wouldn't have won without him in midfield. Stayed on his feet and won his battles. Just hope his legs can hold out. Cousins - 6 Looked out of sorts 1st half and was a bit slow to close down. Got into as the game went on and was important in the midfield battle. Jackson - 7 Fine headed goal. Used the ball simply and seemed to get stronger as the game wore on. Berg Gudmundsson - 6.5 Some good moments in the latter stages. Lookman - 8 Lots of energy and didn't hide. Good control and awareness. A performance of real maturity. Makienok - 6.5 Did a decent job in keeping their back-line occupied. A couple of intelligent balls. Just need to see him attack the box a bit more. One mega header away from their corner. Vaz Te - 6.5 Looked a bit rusty but you could see he can play. Some nice bits of skill out wide late on and seemed to know what was needed to close the game out.

So 9 then
1 for what he gives above what can be measured. If he could teach Mak how to read and meet crosses we would have a real weapon.
Henderson - 6 a few scares Holmes-Dennis - 7 really comfortable at left back Bauer - 8 i absolutely love him Sarr - 7 decent Fox - 6 usual mix of good moments and crazy ones Diarra - 7 looked a bit out of sorts early on I thought but grew into the game Cousins - 6 went missing at times Jackson - 7 great commitment, great goal Berg Gudmundsson - 6 not at his best but decent performance Lookman - 7 shows his inexperience at times with decision-making but impressive and confident performance for his age Makienok - 7 wins everything, and a few nice moments with the ball at his feet Vaz Te - 6 looks clever, but definitely off the pace
Henderson - 7.5 dropped the ball couple of times, but did make a number of excellent saves Holmes-Dennis - 8.5 very good performance a constant thorn in the Brum defence. Equally good in attack and defence Bauer - 8.5 Very solid and composed Sarr - 7.5 Good performance Fox - 5.5 Noticeably the worst Charlton player Diarra - 8 So assured on the ball, positioning on point Cousins - 7 Not his best game but never lacking in work-ethic Jackson - 8 Captain. What more is there to say? Berg Gudmundsson - 7 Was all right not as influential in the middle as he is on the wing Lookman - 8 A real talent sheer endeavour admiral from all Makienok - 7 Was good should have scored from a JBG centre Vaz Te - 7 Skilful once fit a very good option
Henderson - 7 A clean sheet . He made a couple of good saves Holmes-Dennis - 9 Not a fan of 'inverted' full backs but the one time he used his right foot it created a goal .Good goal line clearance near the end Bauer - 7 sound Sarr - 7 Beginning to look the part Fox - 8 Think some posters have been unfair . In the main he kept Gray quiet. Diarra - 8 Has really improved us playing in midfield Cousins - 6 Average Jackson - 8 So glad he is back in form Berg Gudmundsson - 7 Had some good moments Lookman - 8 Very impressed Makienok - 7 Held the line well Vaz Te - 6 Like the look of him
Henderson - 7.5 Couple of good saves, clean sheet, couple of shaky moments. Holmes-Dennis - 8 Really good performance (MOM) Bauer - 7.5 Solid Sarr - 7 Looked better Fox - 7.5 Had the hardest task in the team today and did it well Diarra - 8 So good, beast in the air Cousins - 6.5 Harried them Jackson - 7 Love him Berg Gudmundsson - 6.5 Quiet but good Lookman - 7.5 Impressive Makienok - 7 Held it up, didn't do loads though Vaz Te - 6.5 Looked alright, can see him being decent once he's settled in. Should have made it 2-0.
Henderson - 7 - Ball didn't seem to stick, but pretty solid as per usual.
Holmes-Dennis - 8 - Very impressive, clearly not very confident using his weaker foot but was a good outlet for us throughout the game and defended well.
Bauer - 7.5 - As solid as ever, great marauding run forwards at one point.
Sarr - 7 - Growing in confidence the more games he plays.
Fox - 7 - Thought Morgan had a good game against one of the best talents in the division. Didn't get to see him attack much, but defended admirably.
Diarra - 7 - Broke up play well.
Cousins - 6 - Lots of energy, but one of his quieter games.
Jackson - 7.5 - Classic goal from the skipper. Charlton legend.
Berg Gudmundsson - 7 - Didn't quiet have the service this game, but always looks dangerous when he gets the ball.
Lookman - 7.5 - Really impressed by him. Fed of SM well, and was a constant nuisance for their defence.
Makienok - 7 - Thought it was one of his quieter games. Looks like he is running in treacle sometimes. Did absolutly skin one of their players though and always an outlet.
Vaz Te - 6.5 - Looked a bit sloppy, clearly talent their. Just needs to get some match sharpness.
Henderson - 6 a few scares Holmes-Dennis - 7 really comfortable at left back Bauer - 8 i absolutely love him Sarr - 7 decent Fox - 6 usual mix of good moments and crazy ones Diarra - 7 looked a bit out of sorts early on I thought but grew into the game Cousins - 6 went missing at times Jackson - 7 great commitment, great goal Berg Gudmundsson - 6 not at his best but decent performance Lookman - 7 shows his inexperience at times with decision-making but impressive and confident performance for his age Makienok - 7 wins everything, and a few nice moments with the ball at his feet Vaz Te - 6 looks clever, but definitely off the pace
yes but you can't mark him on last months U21 game, how did he do at right-back in this game

woops - right obviously... was complaining to my brother early on about how one-footed he seemed, then he put in that beauty of a cross for the goal. great performance.
Henderson - 8 Two outstanding saves. Did nearly drop the ball in front of a Brum striker though! Holmes-Dennis - 9 MOTM - Excellent performance. Great crosses with two strong feet. Destroyed two Birmingham defenders in one go (which has been all over the highlights). Bauer - 8 - Played very well, especially later on when Birmingham finally started stringing two passes together. Sarr - 7 - Solid alongside Bauer Fox - 7 - I thought Birmingham kept targeting Fox but held up well. Less impressive than THD going forward.

No hoofing it, just playing intelligent balls and initiating counter attacks. Lookman - 8 - Always looked threatening. Bundles of energy. Makienok - 7 - Created a very good chance first half by totally outmuscling Birmingham's defender. Probably one of his quieter games though. Vaz Te - 6.5 Missed an easy chance to score but I think it may have been offside anyway. Reserve Judgement - didn't get long enough on the ball.
Henderson - 7 - Dropped the ball a couple of times claiming crosses, but otherwise solid and made a few good stops Holmes-Dennis - 8.5 Class piece of skill near the corner flag in 1st half and excellent cross for the goal. Strong at the back and got forward at pace. MOTM Bauer - 7 - Strong in the air and passed the ball out of the back well. Sarr - 7 - A couple of sliced clearances but otherwise solid and distributed well. Fox - 6 - Got skinned by Gray a few times and ineffective going forward. Made some good blocks and saw him organising the defence at set pieces a couple of times. Diarra - 8 - An athletic yet composed performance, received the ball from the CBs and used it well. Started off a lot of attacks Cousins - 6.5 - Usual high work rate and made one really good defensive header following a corner Jackson - 7.5 - Classic Jacko goal a la the one at Fulham, timed his run to perfection so was not tracked. Used the ball well. Berg Gudmundsson - 6.5 - Fairly quiet 1st half but looked good on the ball, became more influential later in the game when on the break. Lookman - 8 - Enthusiastic performance full of running. Roasted their CBs a few times and could have had a couple. Promising full debut Makienok - 6.5 - Strong in the air and defended set pieces well. Missed a difficult headed chance later on. Terrible shooting in the warmup!! Vaz Te - 6.5 - Looked like he had time on the ball and will be a good addition once up to speed.
