Phillips: 5 Matthews: 2 - His fault for the goal - ALWAYS TOO FAR FROM HIS WINGER, not a good defender Lockyer: 6 Pearce: 6 Oshilaja: 3 McGeady: 5 Cullen: 5 Pratley: 7 Morgan: 5 Bonne: 3 Hemed: 2 Field: 5 Aneke: 6
Phillips: 5 - Matthews: 5 - at fault for goal, nowhere near his player Lockyer: 5 - frustrating Pearce: 6 - tried his best to manage Smith but lack of pace showed Oshilaja: 5 McGeady: 5 - frustrating player Cuillen: 5.5 - not his usual self Pratley: 6 Morgan: 5 - almost cost us first half Bonne: 5 - terrible finish first half, looks very rusty Hemed: 5.5 - okay in the air, dreadful on the floor Field: 6 Aneke: 4 - very very slow Referee: 7 MOM
Phillips: 6 unlucky with the goal tbh Matthews: 7 good as ever Lockyer: 6.5 mostly good Pearce: 7 a strong performance Oshilaja: 6.5 was actually decent McGeady: 6 had some moments in the second half Cuillen: 5 gave it away far too much and his delivery was not good Pratley: 7 strong at CB Morgan: 7 very lively Bonne: 5 yet another one steps up to the plate against Millwall, yet another one misses Hemed: 6.5 thought all our good stuff came from his hold-up play, so unlucky not to score Field: 6 he was fine Aneke: 5.5 didn't fall for him Referee: 6 idk
That wasn't the worst showing. Bowyer didn't set us up right though and his changes all came too late to really impact the game
Phillips: 4 Should have held the shot Matthews: 5 Lockyer: 5 on his heels too slow for the rebound Pearce: 6 Oshilaja:6 McGeady:5 too slow Cuillen: 6 Pratley: 6 Morgan:6 Bonne: 4 so lsow and off the pace, hes really gone backwards Hemed: 5 tried but too slow and anything he did win his fellow attacking players were nowhere near Field: good to bring on if you're winning but no good chasing a game Aneke: good touches, why do none of our attackers have a good shot Referee: 4 - poor
Williams: 5 - didnt even touch the ball Doughty: 5 - tried but noone near him to help when he had the ball Sarr: 3 - did he even touch the ball?
Phillips: 6 Matthews: 6 Lockyer: 7 Pearce: 7 Oshilaja: 5 McGeady: 4 - some bright stuff then fluffed it Cullen: 6 Pratley: 7 usual strong stuff Morgan:6 Bonne: 4 on Fifa he's great but ineffective Hemed: 5 needs more killa! Field:6 Aneke: 4 not sure why we bother all bluster needs more finess Referee:6
Phillips: 6 - Made one good save but should have done better with their goal Matthews: 7.5 - Comfortable defensively before being overloaded down the right for their goal Lockyer: 8 - Strong, completely dominated Smith. Tried to make something happen when it was clear our attackers wouldn't Pearce: 8 MOTM - Nothing got past him. Took a lump to the face, nearly set up a goal and tripped himself for a free kick. Heroic, deserved more than the rest of the team gave him Oshilaja: 6.5 - Pretty poor in the first half, decent in the second. Actually regret him going off because Doughty was anonymous McGeady: 6 - Poor first half, showed glimpses in the second half but not enough to turn the game Cuillen: 5 - Really poor from him today by his standards. Started well and then the game bypassed him for 70 minutes. Needed him to find a way to unlock their tight defence and he didn't step up Pratley: 7.5 - Average performance in midfield but imperious at the back and gave the other players a platform to start to build Morgan: 7 - Always looks like he's one pass away from creating a goal. Shame he went off Bonne: 4 - May as well not have been there today. Didn't move for the ball, on his heels whenever Hemed won a high ball and hit a weak shot when he should have cut back for Hemed Hemed: 6.5 - Won a lot of headers, some great touches but looks like he doesn't want the responsibility of scoring goals and we don't have that luxury at the moment. Didn't track for their goal. Field: 6 - Didn't bring much going either way but didn't do much wrong Aneke: 5 - If you want to be the man now Taylor's gone that's not the way to go about it. First touch was poor, final ball was wrong every time and started going up for Hemed's headers at the end. Really disappointing Referee: 6 - Not too bad.
Williams: 6 - Barely got on the ball Doughty: 5 - Didn't look fast or all that interested today Sarr: 6 - Won a header, they actually looked scared with him on
Phillips: 7 - shame about the spilled shot that led to goal Matthews: 7.5 - decent right back Lockyer: 6 - battled Pearce: 6.5 - battled Oshilaja: 6 - did ok out of position McGeady: 6 - not terrible Cullen: 7 - class player Pratley: 7 - battled Morgan: 6 - badly fouled by Millwall Bonne: 6 - works hard, needs to play alongside a goal scorer - didn't finish only chance he had Hemed: 6 - not a goal scorer unfortunately - had 3 chances Field: 6 - helped stabilise the midfield Aneke: 6 - not looking to be the goal scorer that Charlton need Referee:
Phillips: 3.5 should have held Matthews: 3 poor Lockyer: 4 also poor Pearce: tried Oshilaja: 5 McGeady: 5 Cuillen: 4 poor today Pratley: 5 Morgan:6 gave a threat Bonne: 5 Hemed: 6 had a decent effort Field: did he come on!! Aneke: holds up well ,bullies his way forward but then nothing! Referee poor
Williams: n/a not the johnny we know Doughty: n/a not enough time Sarr: n/a desperate substitution
Phillips: 6.5 - Probably should have done better for the goal. Not a lot else to do. Matthews: 7 - Not much got by him but his crossing was poor. Lockyer: 6.5 - Too slow to react to the goal if I'm being harsh. Nearly gave away two pens for shirt puilling. Pearce: 6 - Was there. Oshilaja: 6 - Not a LWB McGeady: 6 - Looked threatening going forward at times, but no end product, the Aiden McGeady Story Cuillen: 6.5 - Did all he could but the lad looked knackered by the end and he must desperately want a creative player in front of him to play with. Pratley: 7 - Solid Morgan: 6.5 - Looked our most creative player in the first half unsurprisingly Bonne: 6 - Not as bad as previous outings. Still not quite good enough for this level consistently. Hemed: 6.5 - When you get quality crosses to him he looks quality. The problem is we don't have anyone who can put in a ball consistently apart from Cullen. Lost his man for the goal, problem was, he was playing RW Field: 6.5 - Worked hard. Pressed well. Can pass a ball Aneke: 6.5 - Came on and changed the game for the first 10. When you get the ball to his feet he does really well. The problem is we're a lump it in the channel team. Referee:
Williams: n/a Looked desperately off the pace. Chicken and egg as to why he hasn't been playing, might be sharper if he had been playing, might have played more if he was sharper. But at least we now know why. Doughty: n/a Looked out of his depth. Sarr: n/a
Bowyer: 3 - And this is where the problem was, unfortunately. Done really well to this point, but got out-tacticed tonight, not for the first time. Playing Dej at LB, and then LWB, meant we were incredibly narrow and predictable. Going to 5-4-1 with Hemed playing on the right was a huge mistake. You'd finally brought on Williams. You have Hemed and Aneke, two decent quality forwards, and Field and Cullen behind the three, all of whom can pick a pass. You need to let them play. Yes, Doughty on the left is a liability defensively but Pearce and Field can cover for him. You need to move the line up higher and go on the front foot. Otherwise, don't make those substitutions, bring on JFC or Green and shut up shop. Instead he switched Hemed to RW, Williams to LW, and sat incredibly deep, and we conceded. All evening he was responding to changes Rowett made.
We've lost the ability to build from the back. We don't really have much possession to speak of. And as such, our players look knackered by the end. We're one dimensional, we lump into channels and we try to score from set pieces. We need to be more than that because the teams around us are playing really well. 1-0s and 0-0s are a precarious business, and tonight it didn't work. And when it doesn't work, it looks really poor.
This doesn't make him a bad manager, and he's done great work. He just got it wrong tonight. And we're going to need to find another dimension for the run-in because I fear teams have figured us out.
Phillips: 5 one good save but should have held Matthews: 4.5 was ok but let man go for goal Lockyer: 4.5 ok Pearce: 6 tried hard Oshilaja: 4.5 not a lb McGeady: 4 not done anything great yet for me always feel like something gonna happen then doesn’t Cuillen: 5 poor today Pratley: 6 tried hard Morgan:6 Ok needed him on ball more Bonne: 4.5 seems too rusty Hemed: 6.5 Some good touches and hold up play but needs a goal now Field: 4 changed nothing Aneke: 4.5 didn’t do enough in his cameo Referee poor
Williams: n/a tried to get on ball Doughty: n/a not enough time Sarr: n/a last ditch
Phillips - 5.5 Not his best for the goal. One or two good moments earlier. Matthews - 6 Not bad but crossing not his thing. Oshilaja - 5 Clumsy and out of position. Lockyer - 7.5 Some good defending, especially at far post. Pearce - 7 Gave it everything. Morgan - 6 Good on the ball but was leaving Oshilaja a bit open. Pratley- 7 Tried hard and did his bit. Cullen - 5.5 Gave the ball away too much. McGeady - 6 Got into it a bit 2nd half. Showed some good touches but didn't look like a good fit for us. Bonne - 5 Pretty weak shot when through. Hemed - 6 Almost zero service. Some moderate efforts on goal and some good touches. Field - 5 Didnt notice him. Aneke - 6 Looked a threat for the first mins he was on and then faded. Williams - Ran about. Created very little. Doughty - Not great.
