Jackett gets it wrong!

Well it was bound to happen sooner or later but I think on Saturday KJ dropped a proper clanger for the first time this season and got his selection very wrong.

Whether it was a determination to get Goldbourne and Evans into the team or if he had some special plan for Swindon I don’t know but we were very lucky to get three points.

Ratings:

Jackett 4. Dodged a bullet by getting the three points but poor selection and far too narrow.

Ikeme 8: MOTM, kept us in it.

Doherty 7: Is looking to be a very solid defender at this level and poses a problem going forward.

Batth 7: For a guy of his age to holding the hand of and guiding a player of Rickett’s experience is remarkable.

Ricketts 5: Made Stearman look like a rock.

Goldbourne 6: Not as good a leftback as Ricketts.

Davis 5: The sort of performance we saw last season that convinced me that he was a poor man’s Henry. Very disappointing after his start to the season.

Sako 6: Where was he supposed to be playing?

Evans 6: A bright young player but shoehorning him into the team gave us a very unbalanced appearance and affected his performance.

McDonald 7: Not up to his usual standard but still pick of the midfield.

Doyle 8: Can’t play as part of a front two and must start weighing in with goals to keep his place

Griffiths 7: made Doyle’s goal but very quiet second half.

Ismail 5: Someone had to remind me in the pub after the match that he’d come on.
Foley 7: Steadying influence and took his goal well.
Sig 7: Another assist! Rapidly gaining a super-sub tag.


Mason was fantastic for them, I’d imagine he has a big future ahead of him.
