This is a difficult one to score.

Dijksteel ***
Gilbert **
Barlaser*

Gilbert and Barlaser were the only ones who looked like scoring today, special mention for McCabe he did himself no harm.
 
Gilbert?? Don't see that at all.
Very tough game to score.

McCabe ***

No other mentions. Literally can't pick another player that played even to their normal level. Hackney and Lath came on and gave an initial injection but not enough to start dishing out star ratings.

Will score McCabe motm because he's stepping up and didn't look out of place. Thought he played a very solid game.

If I have to give scores then I’d go as follows:

Dijksteel *** just, supported the attack well defended ok, but mainly for getting away with that nudge in the back.
McCabe** Made a super crossfield pass and intercepted well
Gilbert* tried hard to get involved, players around him lacked movement, had a good shot saved.

Honourable mention to Engel. (Glover gets a low score)
 
McCabe for me, perhaps we should promote from within a bit more instead of looking for those ‘gems’ elsewhere. An example today was the appalling display of Burgzorg at centre forward while we have players on our bench and out on loan more capable in that role.
 
It’s the manner of the defeat that infuriates me.
Carrick has built a complete squad of players who come across as if they won’t bust a gut and take their opportunity on days like this, even the centre half’s wouldn’t say boo to a goose!
This was their chance to stake a claim 🤷‍♂️
I will take a defeat if we went down scrapping and fighting but there’s no fight in Carricks team.
Desperately need a leader or two in this window, someone like leadbitter at the very least….
 
Dijksteel & McCabe can sleep easy tonight

Barlaser & Hamilton should be packing their bags tonight

Carrick says Hamilton will not be loaned out......thats harsh on the kid, because he's got no chance of being a regular here
Hamilton is the biggest waste of 2.5m ever. Imagine his wages for warming the bench week after week 🤷🏻‍♂️🙈😮
