Half-marks allowed; please rate all subs. Closes Monday @ 18:00. Results by Thursday 22:00. Average is 6.00. Therefore, when a sub steps on the pitch he is on 6 - that's the baseline.

Wildsmith 7.5 Some great long kicking to set up chances for Collins. Pretty quiet otherwise; produced a lovely dolphin-esque leap and flip save 2nd half. Top keeper.

Smith 7.0 Good solid neat simple 

Cashin 7.0 Dominant assured stylish

Forsyth 7.0 Enjoying his purple patch docked half for his naive outstretched leg to give away the penalty

Mendez-Laing 8.0 Machine on full power created the chances huge player for us

Bird ?7.0 Cutting-edge presence & got forward more

Hourihane 7.0 Grit and a new sharpness which got him booked 

Roberts 7.5 Ubiquitous presence around the pitch mobility & skill & headed assist

Sibley 6.0 Ran down blind alleys & went into a shell

Osula 6.0 Huffed & puffed but didn’t blow the house down

McGoldrick 9.5 MotM ? Burned the Gas defence to the ground with mental finishing

Collins 8.0 Bullied the opposition Rewarded with a tap-in from Roberts’s flicked assist should’ve scored 2nd half too

Dobbin 6.0 Ran but didn’t connect with anything

Thompson 6.5 A Duracell like 20 minutes to see the game out.

Referee: 7.0  A good balanced game

Nobody could work out the formation pre-match 4-2-2-2 illustrated that at the end of the day, Brian, it’s 11v11.

Wildsmith 7 (another steady game, has been very reliable)

Smith 7 (would obviously rather not be RB but did well enough)

Cashin 7 (didn’t hit the heights this time and caught out occasionally but still a decent performance)

Forsyth 7.5 (really good again except for giving away the pen)

Mendez-Laing 8 (most effective game for a while)

Bird 7.5 (busy and mature performance)

Hourihane 7 (finally - got stuck in, played well)

Roberts 7.5 (good aggression and supported play well)

Sibley 6.5 (steady but unremarkable)

Osula 7 (worked hard and made a nuisance of himself)

McGoldrick 9 (awesome finishing and great all round)

Collins 8 (terrific forward play throughout - except giving away cheap free kicks when putting defenders under pressure!)

Dobbin 7 (tried hard, lively)

Thompson 6.5 (ok in unfamiliar RM position)

McGoldrick gets a hat trick and only one person so far gives him a 10. You lot are harsh ?

He did, in fairness, spaff the clearance for their first goal if people want to be critical.

Wildsmith 7.5 liking him more every week

Smith 7 nice and stead out of position 

Cashin 7 reliable

Forsyth 7 ok - so an extra point given for an incredibly important flick off the top of his head straining every sinew in the second half, which as the last man, would have left their striker one on one for 4-3. Point also removed for clumsy penalty giveaway.

Mendez-Laing - 8.5 our most consistent forward player, week in week out, and thankfully didn't have to track back. The verse about his neck is uneccessary.

Bird ?- 6.5 was busier but still doesn't really like to match the opposition's willingness to get stuck in.

Hourihane 6.5 better than in recent weeks, got about the pitch more

Roberts - 7 Good energy, work needed on final ball

Sibley  6 Offered very little and the subs seemed to disrupt us

Osula 6 Same, looked a bit cumbersome like he needed half an hour to warm up to speed

McGoldrick 10. Sublime, just sublime. A class above.

Collins 8.5 Great to have him back and thankfully he picked up where he left off. A real menace.

Dobbin 6  Good pace, good work ethic but he looks like an inexperienced player learning on the job, which of course he is. Missed a sitter second half to absolutely put the game to bed.

Thompson 6 came on and did the job asked of him.
