Just back

As poor as his crossing was, Clifton got in and behind their defence a fair few times.  Which is more than Sousa did for pretty much the whole game, the aforementioned cross for Clifton the exception.

Clifton on the left isn't really playing with a winger.  He's not going to do the job of a proper winger and won't deliver the crosses you would expect, certainly not on his weaker side.  But what he does do is add work-rate and, in theory, the option for the left-back to push forward a bit more.  Amos was quieter than he has been of late which showed with our lack of threat down the left.  

Agree, again, on the Holohan point.  He's quickly disappointing me.  Clearly a player in there and he shows glimpses but he's anonymous at the minute.  

Fox and McAtee the stand out performers but Smith just oozes class.  If we can get him back on loan next season, regardless of what league we're in, it'll be a very good piece of business.

Crocombe made some very smart saves and commanded his area perfectly.  Distribution was spot on, especially with quick releases to set McAtee on the counter a couple of times.

strange one isnt it, i'd say since the Stockport game- despite Scoring, he's been pretty poor

Fair point was made around me last night that he's yet to have had a settled partner in midfield, added to that the system has tweaked here and there between a straight two up top and McAtee working in between.

Probably would expect an experienced player to cope with that situation but it can't help.  

He's definitely got something about him.  Having come into the team having not played much prior, perhaps it's just fatigue and a bit of rest until the play-off games might be what's needed.

Holohan may have been quiet last night but I don't think he was poor.
J.Jones on the other hand was shocking when I saw him play (admittedly I wasn't at Chesterfield).

As others have said, Fox was excellent. Thought he owned the middle of the park.

Smith really has a good presence about him for a young lad and has been very good for us (aside from when he's been asked to play right back - which should never happen again).

Important save from Crocombe and loved some of his distribution.

Some of the link up play from Taylor was sublime.

can’t believe how good Pearson was , did not miss a thing , he reads the game so well , his positioning overcomes his lack of pace , love his ‘ body on the line ‘ attitude , a hero . I prefer him and Smith as the pairing . 1-0 makes it sound closer than it was , BW where poor in a game they had to win ..  Lottery of playoffs now , on our day we can beat anybody , either way I’ve enjoyed my Saturdays this season and look forward  to going to the games again … good luck lads ▪️▫️▪️▫️
