Guest Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 1Wildsmith - 7 - handled well except one flap in the first-half after he was assaulted by the Invisible Man 24Nyambe - 7.5 - unmovable, except when he wants to move. Three impressive matches in a row to kick off his DCFC career 35Nelson - 7.5 - calmness personified. Another very good game, on his old stomping ground 6Cashin - 8 - read everything; kicked and headed nearly everything. Really good performance 2Wilson - 7 - should have opened his DCFC account but fortunately wasn't left to rue two (bad) misses; played his part generally regardless Bradley - 6.5 - fine when he came on, headed what needed heading 12Smith - 8.5 - not sure what was slipped into his water pre-match but what a performance. A goal (!!!) and two assists which should really have been three. And his play was good generally too. Will teach me not to say "he wouldn't be in our best XI". Oops. 8Bird - 7 - quiet start but started pulling strings and showed us what we've been missing Hourihane - 6 - did fine 22Fornah - 7.5 - got into the thick of it and played a couple of delightful passes. Seems to be really enjoying himself at the moment Sibley - 6 - not much time to make any sort of impact but sensible in his play and helped us to see it out comfortably 3Forsyth - 7 - determined defending as always. Unfortunate to put himself on a yellow as early as he did, but coped pretty well with the pace of their winger 9Collins - 7.5 - very good shift and can never argue with a (well-taken) goal 10Waghorn - 7 - helped to construct and then finished off a goal; good contribution 11Méndez-Laing - 7.5 - eating my words on NML too - good pick-out for the opener and should have had another assist for Wilson's awful header 7Barkhuizen - 7.5 - what an impact off the bench: 2 quality assists and probably should have had a goal back where it all began Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Spalding Ram Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Wildsmith 6 Will be disappointed with the goal and spilled a couple of crosses…..no panic yet. 24Nyambe 7.5 who’d have thought that a proper right back who can defend would improve the back four! 35Nelson 7.5 Excellent alongside Cashin. 6Cashin 7.5 Excellent alongside Nelson. 2Wilson 5.5 Did ok……till he got into the opponents half Bradley 6 Right up his street, one dimensional attack, hit it long head it away, repeat. 12Smith 9 Where’s this bloke been for the last 12 months, absolutely outstanding, played 10 yards further forward in the second half, massive impact. 8Bird 🦅 8 remarkable return from injury, took him 20 minutes or so to get involved, then back to his best. Hourihane 6 nice little run out. 22Fornah 8 This lad is something else, got a bit of a swagger about him, perfect just in front of the back four. Sibley 6 Good outlet late on. 3Forsyth 7 He’s no Roberto Carlos, but if the opposition are slinging balls into the box Fozzys yer man. 9Collins 7 Put in a good shift, work rate outstanding, smart finish, best match for ages. 10Waghorn. 7 Wanders on, finishes the game off with a classy goal, wanders off, typical Waggy. 11Méndez-Laing 7 another who put in a good shift, great pull back for Smith, looked dangerous 7Barkhuizen 7.5 Excellent, involved in some proper passing football, has to start Saturday instead of Wilson!

Topram Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Wildsmith 7 commanded his box well Nelson 7.5 getting better each week Cashin 8 Strong in the tackle gave us that bite Fozzy 7 few moments but defended well Nyambe 8 Solid looks a great signing Wilson 7 Missed a sitter and another good chance but gave us that spark with his tricky runs Fornah 8 good signing growing each game Smith 9 MOTM his best Derby game Bird 8 good to have him back NML 7 good assist kept going Collins 7 great finish looked exhausted before that, lots of chasing on his own always puts in a shift All the subs did a job, really glad Barky has stayed thought he’d be gone in the summer.
