It's quite simple, even if I maybe didn't explain it. Michel was fantastic and would have got a 7 or 8 but I can't ignore the fact he should have done better with the goal, which drops him to a 6. Whing didn't do anything amazing, nor did he do anything awful, so he just averaged a 6 throughout.

Fine but by your definition he then lost us two points and saved us one... surely that a mınus 1 on your pointometer?

fdm - 7 - 2/3 great saves, terrible kicking , maybe should have stopped goal but it did look tricky.
whing - 4 - cant understand people giving him 6 even , yeh put in couple crosses but refused to get forward , won nothing in the air , rubbish
elphick - 6 - well taken goal looked ok
el abd - 7 - did well, won lots in the air
mcnulty - 8 - assured , looks class, bit worried tries to do bit too much
birchall - 5 - didnt do much
fraser - 6- i like him
jarrett - 6 - looks promising
cox -7 - looked to be playing in the centre second half and was at the centre of most things, often last pass went astray, tried hard
virgo - 5 - pretty crap
forster - 8 usual stuff from the man

carole - 7 - changed the game, great touch
davies - 6 - prety good, looked bit jaded but quick and strong , think he weill be good in couple games time, should have scored

Kuipers - 6 - Distribution is a key part of the game for a keeper. Stop giving the opposition the ball back.
Whing - 6 - Committed and fairly solid, despite losing the ball a couple of times in their half.
elphick - 8 - He looked SILKY at times
El abd - 6 - Disappointing. Seemed incredibly uncomfortable on the ball. Failed to dominate in the air.
McNaulty - 8 - I hope everything we get from Stockport is this good
Birchall - 6 - Some good moments.
fraser - 5 - Needs to come and get the ball from the defence.
jarrett - 5 - Little involvement. Disappointing
cox -6 - Please can someone teach him how to cross... still the only player we have who is capable of a defence splittng pass
virgo - 3 - Out of position, out of sorts, sent off. Shocking - but blame White and Booker
forster - 7 - High energy, hustle and bustle. Made the most of largely shit service

carole - 7 - Impact was the difference, although he faded
davies - 5 - Barn door

kuipers 6 - good agility to make saves but kicking poor as usual
Whing 6 - solid performance
Mcnulty 7 - impressive
el abd 6 - seems a calming influence on back four
Elphick 6 - not as dominating as usual but took goal well
Jarrett 7 - improving
cox 6 - gives energy but needs to improve final ball
fraser 6 - solid and should not have been subbed
birchill 5 - not best game
forster 6 - led the line but not in his best form
virgo 5 - seems unjust that he is playing but if he has too up front is best

subs
davies 6
carole 7

Kuipers 5 Kicking is poor, takes too long to decide what he is going to do.poor command of the box, at fault for the goal but he made 2 very good saves.
Whing 5 Won the ball more than usual distribution is still very poor.
Elphick 6 Sound game but still hoofs the ball everytime,must be under instructions.
El Abd 7 Reliable solid game put his head and foot in when needed but was physically over shadowed.
McNulty 7 Cultured confident display equally happy going forward or defending.
Birchall 6 Good first half contributed a lot
Jarrett 8 MOM superb midfield performance showed his class and what we have been missing all season was in the thick of everything.
Fraser 6 Competant hard working job.
Cox 6 Was at the heart of most of our attacks but his final ball whether it is a cross por pass lets him down.
Virgo 5 Very good first half won everything in the air thrown at him let down by sending off.
Forster 6 Tireless continual running a typical non scoring Forster performance.

Subs:

Carole 6 good sub to bring on his dead ball kicks were very good.
Davies 5 Full of running and a problem for a tiring defence but not sure about his goalscoring ability.


Booker and White did all that was expected of them but you wouldnt have thought MA wasnt on the bench, for what hopefully was their last game at BHA.

I'm not sure Virgo won anything in the air. He's not a centre forward but I can understand the team selection. Thought he should have come off when Davies came on because he is not a midfielder either. He seems untouchable in that a place must always be found for him in the team.

Kuipers 6 - a bit unsighted for goal so unfortunate. 2 cracking saves, but dodgy kicking.
Whing 5 - average.
Elphick 7 - coming good again, and goal always helps confidence.
El-Abd 6 - sound again
McNulty 8 - a joy to watch. Don't ever let withdean whiners make you panic into hoof ball.
Birchall 6 - yet to see the best of him.
Jarrett 8 - another joy to watch. Wish he'd get forward a bit more though.
Fraser 5 - has played much better than that in recent weeks.
Cox 5 - average.
Forster 7 - hard work as usual and always poses a threat.
Virgo 5 - should have given Akinfenwa a proper clout and made the red worthwhile.

Carole 7 - Changed the game. Another player that justifies the entrance fee.
Davies 6 - hassled well and obviously keen to impress. Shame about the sitter though.
