Most players average for me thought Bigwell was our best outfield player and Ben Wilson did well all match his last ditch point winning save for me edges him as our man-of-match.
Wilson - 9: MOTM. Solid and two outstanding saves that got us a point. Best goalkeeping performance of the season.
Doyle - 7: Some good stuff, slight mistake towards the end but looked better than Rose in that position.
Fadz - 7: some good passes, but some mistakes too. May be being harsh and he’s just lost a point on last season due age. Still vital with two young players around him though. Did some organisation for half that seemed to improve us a lot. Gains a point for that.
Panzo - 7: Threat at set pieces, improving defensively and good on the ball.
Dabo - 6: Must have been told to tuck in but for me questionable positionally. Some good stuff going forwards but still missing some end product. Better than he has been.
Hamer - 6: Excellent first half, along with the rest faded second. Never a red.
Sheaf - 7: Continued his good start to the season. Again faded second half.
Bidwell - 7: Really solid, does good stuff in the final third. Starting to like him a lot.
Allen - 6: Just don’t see the point, sorry. Yes he harries and chases, but he’s not going to score or create in a month of Sundays and his pressure rarely leads to him winning the ball like O’Hare. If O’Hare isn’t fit after the break Palmer has to be given a chance.
Györkeres- 7: Was Vik, worked hard, took a couple of chances he probably shouldn’t have. Should have had an assist if Goddens feet worked.
Godden - 5: Poor. Looked slow and off the pace and had two chances you’d expect him to at least test the keeper with.
Walker - 6: Looked lively and TBH I’d start him over Godden next game if we play two up.
Palmer - 6: Not much chance to impact the game but looked useful again. Also worth having on the pitch for the pure confusion he causes Clive Eakin when playing near Dabo.
Robins - I’ve defended his use of subs but those today needed to happen on 60 mins or earlier. However does seem to have got the defence working well.
Robins - what happened after half time? Changes were made too late and Birmingham could have scored a few times before changes made. 2nd half in terms of attack was non existent until around 77th minute and strongly on top after that until red card.
Good performance first half all round, poor second half (bit better after the changes until the red card). Defended well throughout. Wilson had his best game for us. Gyokeres looked more what we know he can be.
Godden I though did well first half but then anonymous second half. Same with Allen.
Impressed by Doyle so far. Looks a good player. Doyle, Panzo & Fadz look out best 3 at the back.
