Great goal. We should be 2 or 3 up. Hope the misses don't come back to haunt us. Rak- Sakyi has a threat. Santos always looks to have an error imminent. For all that we look the better team. Shoretire sparks us and Charles is a threat. Shame Bradley is out of form. We look a bit blunt on the flanks

That free header that Charlton had highlighted Santos poor defensive judgement and could have been costly. He was almost marking his own man
Impressed with Shoretire and I’d keep him on and bring Adeboyejo on, then we really will sew this game up

2-1 will do for me but I haven’t been chewing my fingernails as much in months that should have been a very comfortable three points but it is three points onwards and upwards COYWM

Get imnnnnnnnnn
What a fantastic win that was against a very decent side
Had we had that side v Derby last week we would have won
That’s the best I’ve seen us in ages
VA should have had a couple, CJ looked very very useful holding up play and showing useful experience and Dec John was a real treat to watch
Well done Evatt, you finally got something right😂so long as you don’t go back to Kacha😂😂
Dapo who??

Terrific performance we absolutely battered them but oh how many chances did we miss there, probably more than we’ve had all the rest of the season? Cracking 3 points and some outstanding performances but how good was Declan John when he came on? If Evatt doesn’t resolve the issues with him he wants looking at because when he’s in that form he’s the best we’ve got. If he’s not going to do that then what an advertisement for clubs who might be looking at him. Morley also was excellent today and really only Bradley looked a bit iffy, I think he looks tired and may benefit from a rest to freshen him up. I hope the Shoretire injury isn’t serious though because he looked absolute class today and will be a terrific alternative to Kiera Lee who again played really well but looked shattered when he went off. Early days for our new strikers and both had good chances to open their account but that must bode really well for the future. Let’s get after that top two now then.

We worked out way through. New player held ball up well but froze on chances.
John showed why he he is out of favour by letting his man go for the goal but also what we miss going forward.
Defended well. Santos was generally solid but missed a couple of headers, one glaring goal chance. The defence looked good overall and the midfield very sound.

I was so expecting that to be 2-2 and us talking about not killing the game off. We should have won each half 3-0 and 3-1 so could have easily been 5 or 6 for us today.
Miles more positives than negatives. We didn't have that much possession so the over 50s walking football was rarely seen.
Toal looked good. Santos really started to look like he was enjoying the scrap. Shame Johnston had to go off. Jones didn't look too comfortable on the left side. For me so obvious he has no left foot.
The midfield was fantastic and the front line worked well but will all be thinking braces and debut goals where there to be had.
Trafford - 6 yes a mistake but made a few saves before and after that.
Toal - has cemented that RCB spot meaning Jones has to seek a role elsewhere.
Santos - 6.5 defensively sound but docked half a point from a shocking header which should have made a hole in the back of the net.
Johnston - 6 let's hope he recovers as we've not much depth now
Bradley 6 was having a poor game for me. Seemed easy to read, no turn of pace. Looked leggy but once we got the 2nd he perked up and ended really well threading through some great balls.
Morley 8 what a goal. Great game.
Dempsey 9 controversial not giving my MOM to Morley as I thought Dempsey was incredible. Non stop. Great assist. Good footwork and should have had a second assist.
Lee 7
Shortire -6
Charles 6 goal but should have been more.
Subs all OK but DJ special nod for showing some great attacking intent. No way was Iredale and Beck better than John.

I know Charlton have won their last 3 and therefore should be confident but if we are a promotion side this must be a win. 2-1 victory. An excellent performance. Only complaint is margin of the victory. We should have won by 3 or 4 goals. We set off well with a brilliant free kick from Morley and totally dominated the first half. Charlton had one chance when a weak header from a free kick went straight to Trafford. Whereas we had many chances. One good one for Charles when Shoretire set him up and the keeper deflected the shot onto the bar. In addition to that, we had numerous half chances. Second half, it was a disastrous start when a decent hard long shot seemed to go through Trafford’s arms. Charlton had a decent spell for 20 minutes and missed their one and only chance when we went to sleep at the back. After that it was us and a lot of missed chances (proper chances too not half chances) until Charlton messed up at the back and Dempsey set Charles up for the winner. We continued to miss chances – Adeboyejo could have had a hat trick. But no moaning from me – an excellent performance. Keep it up and get points from Peterborough and Wycombe and who knows. Marks:- Trafford - 7 Good except for the goal which he should have saved. Maybe a bump off the pitch Bradley - 7 Good again. Missed a great chance in the 2nd half Jones - 8 Very good. Started as left wing back then went back to left centre back Santos - 8 Won loads of headers. As with many others, he should have scored in the 2nd half Toal - 8 Very good under pressure Johnston - 7 Good then injured. Nearly scored Dempsey - 8 Full of running and how calm was he to set Charles up for the winner Morley - 8 Brilliant free kick. Shoretire - 8 Very good. Set up Charles for a good chance Lee - 8 As usual good Charles - 9 Busy and an annoyance to their defenders Adeboyejo - 6 Missed 3 good chances. Hopefully it was nerves John - 7 Very good. As I have said before, he is our best left wing back Jerome - 6 Did OK. Held the ball well Sheehan -6 |
