And Its Smith Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Amidst all the talk of pitch invasions I thought it would be good to start a thread to debate individual performances tonight, especially as we had some full debutants. I'll give some ratings as a base to start Parish - 7 - didn't have a lot to do apart from some routine saves but just looks more solid than Fielding for me. Maloney - 7 - looked vulnerable a couple of times when it a straight sprint with Harrison but generally coped well Flint - 7 - got caught in possession a couple of times and think it was his fault for the goal. Won a lot of headers though and marshalled a new back four well O'Connor - 6 - not his natural position but generally did well. Seemed shaky a couple of times though. One to watch as probably hasn't won anyone over tonight. Shorey - 8 - fantastic debut especially considering he hasn't played for a while. Linked well with Bryan and appeared very calm. Cunningham won't get back in on this showing Pack - 6 - always looking for the ball but got caught out a few too many times for me. Needs one second longer on the ball than would be ideal Reid - 6 - in and out of the game in flashes. Looked very good when on the ball but the game passes him by when not in possession. Another who always looked for the ball though Wagstaff - 5 - maybe a 5.5 if I was doing half marks. Ran around a lot but didn't do much when it possession. A bi of a weak link for me Bryan - 8 - fantastic first half, decent second half, capped with a cool winner. Has to start most games from now for me. Looked to beat the full back constantly and had a few tricks JET - 8 - the crowd roared every time he got the ball. Brilliant to see him hold off three defenders in the second half. And what a goal! Harewood - 7 - held the ball up well and allowed players to get involved. Miscontrolled the ball on occasions. Seemed 'up for it'. Thoughts?

AshtonGreat Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 You're not far wrong there Dave. I thought Shorey was excellent. I'd give O'Connor and probably Reid a seven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sglosbcfc Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 You are being harsh on O Conner and Wagstaff. Wagstaff delivered seem good crosses and worked extremely hard. O Conner had a decent debut and looked solid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timothy bird Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 Agree with most of that except I thought you were harsh on o conner I thought he playd well, but its all, opinions isn't it, coyr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coxyboy Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 O'Conner and Reid a 6. Really ? Not sure what game u were watchin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordie Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I thought o conner was pretty good to be fair, maybe he started to look tired in the 2nd half a little but guessing he hasn't had much match practice recently, I also thought Harewood had an excellent 1st touch and brought others into the game with his hold up play, I think over the course of the season these 2 could be excellent signings with that bit of experience they hsve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeh Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 From what I saw Parish 6 didn't have much to do Shorey 6 looked a bit rusty Flint 7 linch pin O'conner 7 very assured Maloany 5 caught out of position far to easy almost scored an own goal Bryan 9 mom cause problems all night Ried 7 good on the ball and lack of side was made up with effort Pack 2 kept giving the ball away needless foul cost us the goal and was weak in possession Wagstaff 6 was a threat but final ball was lacking Jet 7 great finish tired towards the end Harewood 7 unlucky not to score held the ball up well and brought others into the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRISTOL86 Posted September 5, 2013 Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 I thought O'Connor was excellent myself! Thought Harewood and Pack were the weak links, not that anyone had a bad game per se. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
