Slocombe 5.5 One heart stopping moment when he dropped the ball... generally well protected

Rawlinson 6 Solid defence, still worried about distribution under pressure

Cameron 6 centre of the 3 , coped well

Chicksen 6.5 not sure of positioning for Eastleigh's first...but going forward, doesnt lose possession

Parsons 6 some good carrying of the ball

Nemane 6 disciplined.

Francis 6 Improving influence

Vincent 6.5 great ball laid off for Eli's first

Roberts 6 double marked , so less effective

Mitchell 4.5 Not influential at all

Sam 7  (MotM) 2nd goal, just showed that he possess a hell of a shot... just wished he had a better first touch

 

Slocombe 6 - only routine saves to make, but did ok.
Rawlinson 6 - was sound defensively, but doesn't offer the forward threat of Brindley on the right of a back three.
Cameron 6.5 - decent performance moved back into the middle.
Chicksen 5.5 - not as good as he usually is in what I consider to be his best position.
Nemane 5.5 - battled well but struggled to beat his man and create anything.
Francis 6 - a few decent passes but nothing decisive.
Vincent 6 - worked hard but his ambitious passes mostly missed the target.
Roberts 6 - a few good moments but never posed a real threat.
Parsons 6 - willing to have a run at their defence, but lacked the final ball.
Mitchell 5 - struggled to get involved, disappointing overall.
Sam 7* - showed both sides of his game, but mostly the better side today. His first goal was easy, his second was a good bit of finishing. Hopefully he can still have a part to play in the more important games.

Rodrigues 6 - a few good passes, a few poor ones.
Taylor 5.5 - good to see him back, but no real impact.
Richardson 6 - got into some good positions, but didn't make the most of them.

Happy with the win, but I think today showed how important Matty Palmer and Kyle Wootton are to the team.

I've always defended Elisha Sam's first touch, as I think it would be a lot better if he was included more in the first team. If anyone has watched him train, he looks natural on the ball and, I wonder if it's a more live game/confidence issue.

I want him to succeed with us because he could be a much bigger asset, but if he's thrown on meaninglessly like he was against Wrexham - it won't work out.

We either play him more, or look to replace him.

Thanks for providing the ratings, I didn't listen or attend the game - I can't comment further.
