Wollacott: 4.5 - Needs to start making some saves, and his distribution is awful Clare: 5 - Not very good O'Connell: 5.5 - Did Ok till injured Thomas: 6.5 - Needed the game and extra for the goal Sessegnon: 7 - He's very good Morgan: 6 - Awful out on the wing but came alive for the last half hour Dobson: 8 - So passionate, gives everything Fraser: 8.5 (MoM) - Showing how good he can be Kirk: 4 - Back out wide and looked lost Stockley: 5 - Difficult to mark higher even with very poor service R-S: 6 - Slept the first hour then went wide and started playing Lavelle: 5 - Not very good Aneke: 7 - Made things happen B-T: 7.5 - So quick and his wing play wrought havoc Referee: 1 - That's generous - he was simply awful and ruined the game, not helped by terrible lino's and fourth official too.
Wollacott: 5 Clare: 6 O'Connell: 7 Thomas: 7 Sessegnon: 8.5 Morgan: 7 Dobson: 9 Fraser: 7 Fitness issues? He was completely gone by 80 mins. Kirk: 5 Stockley: 3 Has the balance of Bambi on ice R-S: 6 Not his fault, played out of position, but got an important goal. Lavelle: 5.5 Just not the best CB. Aneke: 9 Terrific impact. B-T: 8.5 Same as above. Referee: 2
Wollacott: 5 - should have done better for the first two goals and was well below his best (albeit better than Walton at the other end) Clare: 6 - did ok. I assume he's suspended now after a fifth booking and imagine that Richard Chin will come in if he's fit O'Connell: 7 - our only reliable central defender. Let's hope it's not serious Thomas: 6.5 - did pretty well in his full league debut for us Sessegnon: 6 - solid defensively and a few good attacking runs, although he was given no support by Kirk before the latter's hooking Morgan: 7 - much better when he moved more centrally. He played some lovely cross field passes to our danger man, CBT and, in addition to his goal, came up with two assists when they were most needed Dobson: 9: MoTM - I thought he carried the team through this game - he needed to, given the strength of the Ipswich midfield and the fact that we were carrying a couple of passengers for the first hour. No man deserved an equalising goal more than him. Fraser: 6.5 - worked hard and showed some quality at times against a muscular and aggressive Ipswich midfield Kirk: 3 - one or two good passes per game simply won't cut it Stockley: 4 - slow, laboured and gave the Ipswich central defenders a very comfortable first hour. I don't doubt his work rate and desire but, other than his excellent defensive work at set pieces, his contribution is minimal. We know he'd be more effective with a proper co-striker but we have no one who can start alongside him. In contrast, Ipswich were able to introduce Ladapo and Harness (£750,000 from Pompey) from the bench R-S: 6 - always carries a threat but needs to be played out wide. Ipswich, a pretty cynical outfit, weren't averse to putting the boot in on Jes or, indeed, anyone else in a red shirt who were on a run Lavelle: 5 - badly exposed for their third goal. Hopefully he can play his way back in to some decent form Aneke: 8 - turned the game on its head. Very entertaining to watch B-T: 8 - ditto. He burnt the full-back for pace every time Referee: 2 - deplorable. At least he added on the time for the three goals and the substitution before Dobbo's equaliser
Wollacott: 4 - beaten twice from long range. Clare: 5 O'Connell: 6 Thomas: 5 Sessegnon: 6 Morgan: 6.5 - Struggled in the position he had to play but he's the only player who can deliver that perfect pass. which on a couple of occasions did just that. Dobson: 7 Has become this season my favourite player in this side. Gives it his all. Fraser: 6 - looked exhausted in the second half. Should of been substituted as their fourth goal their player just breezed passed him. Kirk: 3 - There was a couple of pigeons down the wing on his side in the first half who were taking the piss out of him, as they were never troubled by Kirk running down that wing. Stockley: 4 R-S: 6 - Poor up top but got better in his more natural wide man position. Lavelle: 5 - let the man turn him on their third goal. looked very shaky. In fact all our defenders did. Aneke: 7 B-T: 7 - made the difference him coming on. Referee: 1 - atrocious performance for a who you would think is a professional official.
Wollacott: 5 A couple of great saves, but I really thought he could have done better for some of the goals. He has been beaten by quite a few long shots recently. Is it down to his positioning or being a bit flat-footed, or perhaps both? His form seems to have dropped off. Clare: 6 Did okay, but nothing special. His form has dipped worryingly. He used to be one of my favourite players, but I now worry when I see him on the team sheet. O'Connell: 6.5 Had looked decent before his injury. We can't afford to lose him for too long so hope the injury wasn't as bad as it looked. Thomas: 6 Turned his back on goals 3 and 4. Otherwise mostly did ok. Looks as though he will get a run in the team now, so hoping he steps it up. Extra point included for the tap in. Sessegnon: 7 Thought he looked good both defensively and going forward. You can see he has quality. Morgan: 7.5 Poor after he first came on, but came alive when Aneke and BT came on. A goal (well anticipated) and two assists. What is there not to like? Dobson: 9 Another huge performance and a fantastic point-saving goal at the death. The guy never gives up, has so much passion and must run further in every game than anyone else. A Charlton legend already. Fraser: 8 A good game. Worked really hard and tried to make things happen. Kirk: 5 Was not involved much at all. Some of that was due to him being isolated out wide, but some down to his poor work rate. Stockley: 6 He was better defensively than attacking and won some important defensive headers, but that is clearly not his main job. He was very isolated up front and needs someone playing alongside him. Desperately needs a goal for both him and the team overall, no matter how he gets it. R-S: 6.5 Well taken goal. We need to give him the ball more. Lavelle: 5 Looked a bit rusty, but unsurprising. Hopefully he will get back in the groove quickly because it looks like we may need him. Aneke: 8.5 Changed the game. Really looked up for it, scared the defenders and created a goal. B-T: 8.5 Same as Chuks. Had a huge impact when he came on.
Referee: 3 Wow! That was a really poor performance. He wasn't biased, he was just crap!
Egbo: injured n/a Was looking good. Hope injury is not serious.
Garner: I am not sure we were set up in the best way first half, but he did well coping with the two enforced subs. The second half double substitutions changed the game, so credit for that. His sending off and reaction was a bit bonkers, but that fitted in with the overall game - public announcement to warn a fan about using a whistle and four goals in stoppage time. Totally and utterly bonkers game, but hugely enjoyable to watch.
Wollacott: 5.5 thought he could have done better for some of the goals Clare: 6 O'Connell: 6.5 we missed him Thomas: 6.5 seemed largely OK and scored on his full League debut Sessegnon: 6.5 Morgan: 7.5 extra for getting so much better once Aneke and CBT came on Dobson: 8.5 hero Fraser: 7 Kirk: 4.5 Stockley: 5 R-S: 7.5 didn't stop, scored, was better once in his natural position Lavelle: 5.5 Aneke: 7.5 makes us better immediately B-T: 7.5 see Chuks Referee: 2.5 oh to have a ref who was just a little bit crap ....
Wollacott: 5.5 Great save to stop it getting messy but shaky. Clare: 6 A couple of good things. O'Connell: 6 Good last ditch tackle that got him injured. Stupid booking. Thomas: 6.5 Was very confident on the ball and pulled off some good blocks and tackles. Sessegnon: 7 - Looks such an accomplished player. Wouldn't be surprised if he moves to Championship in January. Morgan: 7 - Had a really decent go and it was good to finally see him score. Dobson: 6.5 - Doesn't give up. Probably ought to get a few more like that...he's got the energy to get into the box. Fraser: 7 - Was pretty tidy. Would like to see more of a goal threat from him. Kirk: 3 - One decent through pass to Sessgnon. I knew the game was up for him on 8 mins, when he didn't bother chasing a perfectly good through ball from Sessegnon. He'll never win the crowd over with shit like that. Stockley: 4 - Totally out of form. Devoid of confidence (he might be playing injured) and with a full squad would have been rotated out by now. Shame because on his day, he's a good centre-forward. R-S: 6 - Flits in and out but does at least keep going until the end. This season will be the making of him. Lavelle: 5 - Very ordinary. Aneke: 8.5 - Instant impact. Completely unplayable once he got a head of steam up. B-T: 8.5 - Instant impact. Starting to take up some really good positions at the far post now too and looks a goal-threat. Referee: 5
Egbo: injured n/a - right-wing? Didn't look a natural there in his very short time.
