Player ratings vs Millwall

[goldstone]

Can't see it anywhere else, so here goes.

A shocking performance (except for the first seven minutes). Only Forster played well and even he screwed up a couple of opportunities in the second half.

Kuipers 6. Couldn't do anything about the first two goals, but was slow coming for the ball which resulted in the penalty. Kicking again poor.

Whing 6. OK, but some poor distribution.

El Abd 5. Didn't dominate and was outjumped too frequently. Was it him or Lynch who left their player unmarked to head the first goal?

Lynch 3. What has happened? Looked like a disaster waiting to happen all game. Awful on the ball. Poor distribution.

Rents 6. Some good corners and free kicks. An OK game.

Robinson 6. A few flashes, but not anywhere near his best.

O'Callaghan 4. Kept demanding the ball, but did f*** all with it. Very poor performance.

Hammond 5. Totally anonymous again. Can he and O'Callaghan play together?

Fraser 5. Did very little that was worthwhile.

Savage 5. Not one of his better games. Heading poor and fell over too often.

Forster 7. MOM, not that it means much.

Subs:

Cox 5. Was no better than Fraser. Reid should have been brought on instead.

Revell 6. At least he made an attempt to do something in his ten minutes.

Martot 3. Did nothing. As I have asked before, what is the point?


Wilkins 3. Why change the formation in the second half? Why bring on Martot? Why play Bas if you knew he was going? Why did the team play so very badly?

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

Back to the old Wilkins today wasn't it, what a nightmare he had.

 

[Yorkie]

You're very generous goldstone.

If 5 is average then every player today was 4.

 

[Scotty Mac]

kuipers - 4. kicking was woeful, didnt do a lot else
whing - 3. fired up is the only positivie to take from him today
rents - 3. will take some time to get back into it given that was his first game since september
lynch - 2. hasnt looked the same since he came back
el abd - 5. thought he did well again today, key blocks and played with passion that the rest of the team was devoid of
fraser - 3. didnt do anything - but didnt really have the chance to
robinson - 4. few decent attacking runs, gave the ball away too much though
hammond - 3. remember him doing some stuff, but none of it really helpful
o'callaghan - 3. see above
savage - 2. awful - obvious he knows he is going
forster - 4. no service, could have set cox up but his pull back was poor

cox - 3. didnt make much of a difference
revell - 4. looked slightly better for about 5 minutes when he came on
martot - 3. few good touches, but like fraser not involved enough

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Kuipers 6 one good save, slow for pen - started about 4 attacks for them with kicking

Whing - 6 - didnt do too much right or wrong

Lynch 5 - not helped by el abd

El abd 3 - let a player get a hattrick whohas not scored in 20 games

rents - 4 - woefull, was he wearing slippers? get richards back now

O calla - 6

Hammond - 6

Fraser - 5 - not a winger

Robinson - 3 - MAKE A f***ing TACKLE - done every time by Simpson?

Forster 6 - Worked well off nothing

Savage - 2 - Useless

 

[Trigger]

Agreed, although I'd argue you could even dish out some 2's and 3's.

I heard there were plenty of Number 2's on display!

 

[Silent Bob]

Kuipers 7 - Could do nothing about the first two goals. Made one good save at 1-0. Couldn't see the penalty really, he was perhaps slow to come but he was hardly the most culpable!

Whing - 3 Rubbish.
El-Abd - 2 Gets two points just for one excellent diving block at 1-0. Otherwise terrible. Get Butters back in, or if he's not up to it sign someone, El-Abd is NOT good enough.
Lynch - 4 Not directly responsible for any goals but still very bad indeed.
Rents - 4 As above. Felt sorry for him really. Set pieces and passing unusually poor, gave his man too much space though and let him run at him. Better than Richards?

Robinson - 3 All kinds of bad.
Hammond - 3 Did f*** all.
O'Callaghan - 3 Worst game for us by miles.
Fraser - 3 Not a wide player, and I feel sorry for him when he has to play there.

Forster - 4 Him totally ballsing up our one real opening sums up how dire we were.
Savage - 3 Bye then. Didn't deserve the applause he got after this performance. Ungrateful or easily manipulated by his agent? Either way he can do one.

Subs:
Cox - 5 Had a shot on target at least. Worked fairly hard.
Martot - 0 Did he touch the ball?
Revell - 6 Didn't do too badly. Played a part in a couple of our attacks that actually came to something.

Tactics - Subs made 3-0 down? Switch to the diamond? Why? We seemed totally incapable of keeping the ball, or dealing with a physical going over from Alexander who's scoring record rivals that of Savage. Let's just hope this is a freak performance, and a freak result.

 

[O Lads]

Kuipers 5. Think i saw him make one save, poor with conceeding penalty.

Whing 6. Not a good game.

El Abd 6. Poor marking for both goals but wasnt that bad otherwise.

Lynch 4. Wasnt looking when passing the ball and kicked almost everything out of touch. No good moments

Rents 5. Bad game although to be fair is still young and inexperienced

Robinson 5. Every time he had the ball wanted to run it in the net. Didn't want to pass or shoot.

O'Callaghan 6. Passing was ok and a couple of good tackles but bar that not good.

Hammond 5. Did nothing but if i remember rightly, was playing left midfield in second half, why?!?!

Fraser 5. Not a right midfielder, is a brilliant tackler but other than that no great features to his game. Should always be played in centre midifled in a tough game IMO.

Savage 5. His headers were going all over the shop, out for throwas alot of the time. Went on a good run then eventually went out for a throw. His heart wasnt in it today.

Forster 6. Didnt do alot, one attack springs to mind when he should have played it across goal early but instead waited, then chipped it and keeper easily collected it.

 

[goldstone]

You're very generous goldstone.

If 5 is average then every player today was 4.

On reflection, maybe I was over generous. We were terrible today. I'll mark them all down by one.

I would have liked to see Gary Hart on the bench in place of Martot. At least he always gives 100% and could have been brought on the put some life into our performance.

Robinson 5. Every time he had the ball wanted to run it in the net. Didn't want to pass or shoot.

Can you blame him?

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

Sadly Wilkins has his favourites, and prefers the steaming pile of French turd on the bench

Dont you just hate it when they have favourites

It's not on is it?

 

[BensGrandad]

Kuipers 4 Poor kicking poor decision making with 2 goals for which he must share some of the blame and penalty.
Whing 4 Very poor from the word go he was struggling
El Abd 4 Poor heading but got in a few tackles.
Lynch 3 Worst game I have seen him have was completely lost for 2 goals alongside El Abd and Kuipers one of them should have taken control and gone for the ball. Clearances and distribution were very poor.
Rents 4 Showed that he is not yet ready for the 1st division even his spot kicking wasnt very good.
Fraser 4 Tried hard to no avail no worse or better than those that replaced him.
O Callaghan 4 Lost the ball too much after demanding it.
Hammond 4 Poor performance generally was just chasing shadows and not getting the ball.
Robinson 4 Ran around in circles and got nowhere
Savage 3 Showed he was not interested and knows he is going.
Forster 5 Made a few runs but even he gave up towards the end accepting that we were going to lose.

Subs:

Cox 4 No improvement when he came on
Revell 4 When he came on he did nothing
Martot 3 Did he touch the ball when he came on.

Wilkins & Co 2 They got that because they turned up picked the wrong team which was obvious after about 15 minutes but didnt change it at all. We were losing every ball in the air and being out played on both wings should immediately have taken off either of the full backs and moved either El Abd to right back or Lynch to left back and put Butters in the middle.

Sadly I dont not know what the immediate answer is but todays performance was one of the worst that I have witnessed in my 60 years of watching BHA we were abysmal. 2nd best in every department and area of the pitch.

 

[andybaha]

Kuipers - 5 - One decent stop but kicking poor.

Whing - 5 - Probably our best defender which is not saying much
El-Abd - 5 - Committed as always, made a couple of decent blocks.
Lynch - 4 - Very poor.
Rents - 4 - They obviously knew that we had lost Richards and set out to target Rents - it was a good decision on their part as he was poor. His dead ball kicking was also dreadful.

Fraser - 4 - Obvious for all to see that he is not a right winger. Well obvious to almost everyone.
O'Callaghan - 3 - No worse than many on the pitch but I've marked him down because he had the nerve to bollock other players.
Hammond - 4 - Didn't see much leadership being offered.
Robinson - 4 - I hear he played well in this position at Swindon but looked clueless there in this match.

Savage - 3 - Always thought he was a donkey and today he proved it. Good luck to whoever signs him.
Forster - 5 - Plenty of effort but never looked like adding to his goal tally.

Cox - 5 - At least he managed our first shot, all be it over an hour into the match.
Revell - 4 - Held the ball a couple of times.
Martot - 3 - Did he touch the ball?

 

[Barry Izbak]

kuipers - 5. didnt have a chance with the goals
whing - 3. Before the game I told my mate who was at his first game for 3 years that whingy was our best signing of recent years. Thanks for making me look a prat
rents - 3. totally out of his depth
lynch - 3. Dreadful
el abd - 5. my least favourite player but once again was one of the better players on this dreadful day
fraser - 3. pointless
robinson - 4. great for the first three minutes
hammond - 3. nothing from him today
o'callaghan - 2 I am sick of displays like this from the classiest player we have got on the books. One shit pass after another and berating team mates for his own ineptitude. Goodbye.
savage - 2. Hasn't been the same old Bas for 4 or 5 weeks. Goodbye
forster - 5 effort with no results

cox - 5 our first shot on target after about 55 minutes
revell - 4. looked slightly better for about 5 minutes when he came on
martot - 3. another pointless appearance

 

[saltash seagull]

whing 3 - worst performance for the albion
el abd 2 - he made alexander look class,hammond was not happy with him for the 1st goal and he let him in for the 2nd as well
lynch 3 - come on joel your better than that
rents 3 - set pieces were shit
jake 4- anything we looked threatening in the 1st half was when jakey got involved
george 2 - passionate yer but plays himself in to trouble to much,i for one thing we would be better at findind a true holding midfield player
hammond 4 - made some decent challanges and tried to get forward,give him over george any day
fraser 4 - did ok'ish but kept getting dragged into the middle leaving us with nothing on the right
savage 2 - hasn't been at the races for a number of weeks
forster 4 - worked hard with no luck or much support
