I’ve asked this every week but can somebody please tell me what Delfouneso brings to this team? Isgrove yet again, runs around, looks busy but delivers nothing, hitting first man every time. Lee has been atrocious today and was completely at fault for their goal where he just stood off and watched it being hit. No movement off the ball at all, too static and much too lethargic. Need to up the tempo immediately and hope this is the proverbial game of two halves. Your 4-0 doesn’t look too likely now OM, nor even your 3-0 Chip!!!

Has Evatt gone to sleep like the players, 63 minutes of shit and not one substitution yet. Total disgrace this today, we’re going to get nothing from this and don’t deserve to.

Well Lady Luck returned and helped us again.
The sending off was dodgy and the penalty could have been turned down.
Absolute panic stations for the last 5-10 minutes.
A win is a win though so PHEW!

Lucky, lucky, lucky Bolton, didn’t deserve that at all today and let’s hope there’s no glossing over how atrocious we were today. We just made things so difficult for ourselves yet again with so many totally unnecessary free kicks given away in dangerous areas. So slow and lethargic today and yet again, absolutely toothless up front and final ball in just woeful. It’s another 3 points but no way we deserved that today and I do feel,sorry for Walsall who worked so hard.

So lucky. Certainly not a sending off- shame on Dapo. Final penalty shout could go either way
Very sleepy. Just as he was probably going off Lee stepped up and two bits of good play by him won us the game
I doubt we will see Maddison? Subs stabilised things. Thomason great forward run on Elbouzedi's break- noone had done that all game.
I thought Williams unduly clumsy. Jones made one telling contribution
Delfouneso subbed off at 93 ( 30 mins too late? 93?)
There were some poor balls played and we lacked tempo throughout for me. One bright patch just after equalising.
Tough on Walsall but as predicted they did fade.
Gilks 5 Jones 7 Santos 8 Baptiste 7 John 7 Lee 6 Williams 6 Dapo 7 Isgrove 6 Doyle 4 Delfouneso 3 Subs 5 each

Luck favoured us today.
Our play was very similar to early season. Slow, ponderous football, a reluctance to shoot, and an opposition who wanted the ball more than us.
First half, we deservedly went in behind. Lee was badly at fault for not closing down their guy who scored. We just could not get our full backs in down the wings and at the back Santos and Baptiste looked sloppy.
Second half, we tried to get going but nothing was working at all. Afolayan was the only one who tried to shoot. Balls from the wings hit the first man every time and we couldn’t control midfield. Our corners were dreadful other than one that John took which Santos could have scored from.
Lee eventually set Jones free down the right and kept running to nod in the rebound and it lifted us for a short while.
Hayden White got sent off for Walsall – I really didn’t see much in the tussle.
We still couldn’t finish them off and we got a little lucky when a move between Doyle and Lee led to Lee going down for a slightly fortunate penalty which Doyle took well.
We then had 10 minutes or so of desperate panic defending but somehow held on
Not a great performance but a win so we must be happy. That is 2 games when we played average and won. We need to get back to the Cambridge performance quickly.
Marks:-
Gilks - 6 Looked a bit slow going down for the goal but, otherwise, he was fine.
Jones - 6 A rare run forward led to our first goal. Had difficulty getting forward today
John - 6 Like Jones, had difficulty getting forward
Santos - 6 A bit of a struggle. Walsall’s front men pressured him and Baptiste all match
Baptiste - 6 Pressured by the opposition
Williams - 5 Could not control midfield at all today
Lee - 6 Involved in all 3 goals. Like Williams, struggled to get a grip of midfield today but then scored and won a penalty
Delfouneso - 5 Not involved in the game much
Afolayan - 6 The only player who would shoot
Isgrove - 5 Some terrible attempts at crossing
Doyle - 5 Good penalty but just not in the game
Elbouzedi
Miller

Fair analysis Dave, but I suggest that you overrated Dapo's performance. Flashy runs but poor end result, all fur coat and no knickers. Missed a chance to put Doyle through in first two minutes, and got in his way for the header. Both he and Isgrove yet again failed to use the width to get to the byline and turn the defence, preferring to cut inside to a packed defence or try a hopeless shot. Consequently both Doyle and Delfounseo did not get much ball and were cut out of the game.
