Should've pasted an appalling Wimbledon team by 5 or 6, even allowing for the fact we never really got out of 2nd gear.
Ratings:
Moore 6.5 Did fine
Freeman. 6 Not sure what happened with the first Wimbledon goal. Still good going forward and more than good enough at this level IMO.
O Connell. 6. Did alright
Jake Wright. 6. Don't think he's that great but he talks. Doesn't win that much in the air and can see why he's never played above league 2 before.
EEL. 8. Excellent, very big and powerful and won loads in the air, made a big difference for us today.
Lafferty. 6. Meh, like last week really. Just looks incredibly mediocre but he's certisnly an improvement on the likes of Hussey. Played 2, won 2 as well.
Basham. 5. Just don't rate him. Endless times he had the ball in acres of space and it was screaming out for him to have a shot, but if any of you have ever seen him shoot from outside the box you'll know he's worse than most centre backs at it.
Coutts. 7. Playing well, looks happier in the middle.
Duffy. 7.5 Very good today and absolute class on the goal. Can see his quality and like Grayblade and others have pointed out, he's always trying to do something risky that might just open a defence.
Hit some brilliant balls today and I want to see him in a number 10 role in a 4-2-3-1/4-1-4-1 set up.
Sharp. 7. Not his best and 1 of his marks was for the goal but that's what he's there for. 4 goals for the season already and he's been in cruise control so far tbh. One of the best strikers in the league its as simple as that.
Done. 7.5 Worked hard, put in a great cross for Sharp on the second. Should've had at least a hat trick though.
Subs:
Fleck (came on at HT). 7. Good player and that middle three of Coutts, Fleck and Duffy gives us plenty of quality on the ball. Likes a challenge and talks which is something else we've needed badly.
Clarke. 5.5/10. Made a nuisance of himself but Christ did he blow a good chance to finish the game off. Expected better from an experienced 20 goal a season centre forward.
Scougall. 6/10 Worked hard as always but would've got a 7 if he'd have scored when through on goal. Duffy's a higher class of player with better vision and has a goal in him so can't see Scougs taking him place in the team
United: Beat probably the worst team I've seen in six years of this god forsaken league, but a wins a win.
Still maintain that I don't like this 3-5-2, we don't look any more solid because of it and it just means the likes of Fleck, Coutts and Duffy have less options when looking for a ball.
Want us to get a quality centre back to lead the back line instead of Wright or O'Connell.
Has to be said though, both those players are a definite improvement on Mceveley and Collins.
Glad we've turned it round though and looking forward to Lavery hopefully getting match fit asap
