Interesting to see comments re: Mussa here. He's clearly very talented but I think he's destined to be a source of frustration. If he can get some sort of match fitness he could be a real asset - I've seen plenty already to suggest that he could be the kind of player that elevates the side. I can see why they've taken a punt on him.

He is the type of player whol will go missing at times, though - up to the rest of the side to step up if/when that happens.

Carson
Tonks
Dreyer

Carson - most of what we did good came from him
Tonks - provided some good opportunites from the right side second half
Ash - worked hard, created some half chances from his tenacity and chasing down
Mussa - terribly frustrating at times (the free kick, losing the ball), but provided more creatively from midfield in his spell than the others did all game.
Dreyer - marshalled the backline well, and other than the free kick, I dont feel Aveley offered any geniune threat to our goal.

Carson - for scoring, even if it was a fluke. Made some glaring errors but was our most consistent attacking threat.
Tonks - provided similar threat on the right flank in the second half

Struggling to find anyone else because all made multiple howlers but, best of the rest:

Ash - worked his socks off and provided the pace which the rest of the team, with the exception of Tonks, lacks
Dreyer - because he didn't do too much wrong (damning with faint praise perhaps!)

Foulsten - won virtually every ball.

Mussa - some glorious passes and seems to be getting the message to look for a pass, although couldn't help himself by going on a mazy run and giving the ball away.

Don't think anyone is deserving tbh.

Oh yeah, forgot about that awful Mussa free kick.

Up to five players from today please.
