Bycroft, honourable mention for Elbouzedi.

Elbouzedi for me.
Would like to see him here next season.

Yep, agree with that.

The Mansfield comms were scared of him.

Bycroft stopped us losing by innings, but his kicking is atrocious.  A GK for the 1980's, a good one.

Bycroft - he will be a real asset in years to come with this non league experience

Bycroft, alongside some poor finishing from Mansfield, ultimately kept us in it.  But I picked Drinan today.  For his debut goal and for adding to a number of improving performances from him.

Elbouzedi for me, looked a threat every time he had the ball. Let’s hope we keep him beyond this season 🤞

Don't see how you can vote for Elboozi - his defending was non existent ! Before you jump on my back, I know he was played out of position, a crazy decision by Gunning to squeeze him in at wingback. Yes he did very well getting forward, beating his man and putting in great crosses, that's what a good winger does. But he was asked to play wingback, but his defending was non existent !

Bycroft must get the vote for keeping us in the game, but thought Dokes had a very good game, his driving runs forward opened up a lot of attacking plays. Khan was utter dogshit today, how the hell did he stay on for the whole game. For the first time, saw something in Drinan.

Tbf, we haven’t a clue as to what Gav told Boozy his duties were

Bycroft followed by Elboozy, without Bycroft that could have been another Aldershot style defeat.

I thought Dokes did well as well, but fucking hell that defence.

Dokes and his rampaging runs for me! Elbouzedi did well also, what a peach of a cross for Drinan, who is slowly growing on me after not impressing in his early games. Fair play to him, a lovely header.

Oh yeah and Bycroft made 3 or 4 very good saves. His shot stopping is generally excellent.

This is exactlt the problem though for me. Our 2 wing backs were 2 of our better players yet it's nothing to do with their defending. We were absolutely battered down both wings, not their fault but awful tactics

Agreed.

Yes, ElBouzedi needs to be left up the pitch as he is a RW, not a RB.
