Bolton Wanderers 0-2 Oxford United – Player match ratings

NATHAN BAXTER…4.5.

Was a fortunate boy when he took a wild swing at Dale within the second half however the sport was passed by then. Had made a few saves beforehand.

GETHIN JONES…3.5.

The battle with him and Murphy was all the time going to be key. He didn’t win it, the truth is he didn’t come shut. Appeared one-paced.

RICARDO SANTOS…3.5.

The captain appeared wobbly from the beginning and questions should be requested about his health within the lead as much as the ultimate. Merely hasn’t been at his finest.

EOIN TOAL…4.5.

Appeared overawed by the event. One other sport the place you marvel if the left aspect of the again three is basically the place he must play.

JOSH DACRES-COGLEY…4.

Uncomfortable all day. Wanderers sought to choose him out at each doable alternative however Bennett was smart to the hazard time and time once more.

PARIS MAGHOMA…4.

Clattered within the early levels and also you’d should ask, why was he allowed to hold on? Implicated within the second aim, and what a tragic approach to finish his time with Bolton.

JOSH SHEEHAN…3.5.

There have been instances this season when he has run the present. However too typically within the highest strain events he has been marked out of it.

GEORGE THOMASON…4.5.

Confirmed some scrap, which is greater than some, however virtually nothing on the ball. Will likely be vastly disenchanted.

NAT OGBETA…3.5.

Supply from the broad areas was poor, and if that is his final sport then it’s a unhealthy approach to bow out. Actually appeared like Randell Willims was missed.

DION CHARLES…4.

Hardly bought into the sport, which wasn’t actually his fault. The provision line was merely not there. Taken off in a second half swap that was arduous to substantiate.

AARON COLLINS…4.

Had a 10-minute spell within the first half the place he appeared to have discovered his groove however little or no else. Disappeared after dropping into quantity 10.

Subs: Dempsey 5 – Gave greater than anybody else, and performed lower than a half.

Iredale 5 – One other one who did present up.

Jerome 4 – Had a few half-chances to make a dent.

Adeboyejo 4 – Appeared nicely off it.

Not used: Coleman, Forrester, Morley.

MAN OF THE MATCH – Kyle Dempsey.

Made an influence and only a few in a white shirt might say that on the day. Clearly it raises the query of whether or not he ought to have began, or changed Maghoma earlier, however they’re for an additional time.

MOAN OF MATCH – The place do you begin? There was actually no avenue within the Bolton efficiency that didn’t bear scrutiny. It was horrible, finish of.
