Glad to see this doesn’t say player of the match. 
 

Kenny for me. 

[Palfy]

Rondon for me showed plenty of effort and got the goals that take us through, some will say it was only Boreham Wood maybe but no one else got one so we needed his. 

[c1982]

Should have been Gordon easily but for his final ball/decision - love the lad but hope he learns from tonight because he was really frustrating and actually undid the class things he did do.

I went with Kenny - fair play to him, he may still have a future here (not just based on tonight!!!)

[Bailey]

Easily Kenny for me.

[Wiggytop]

Allan, kept the engine running and moving t the ball forward.

[Bill]

A few good performances out there tonight, Doucoure, Allan, Gordon, and even Rondon gets a mention but its Doucoure for me

[MC11]

Allan and Gordon superb went with Gordon

[Shukes]

Allan. Man mentoring boys. The guy was everywhere.

Gordon tried and tried, but looked like he was trying to do it all himself.

Rondon was a different player. Actually held the ball well at times, and had a decent touch on him.

[Romey 1878]

Gordon.

[Btay]

When the final part clicks for Gordon he will be some player.

Allan though - marshalled the game. 

[Bailey]

I was a bit frustated with Allan. I thought him and Keane were the biggest culprits in slowing the game down and letting the BW players reset and get into their shape.

They both took a dozen touches when one or two would have done.

Bit late on putting this up but my Man of the match was Doucoure.  Thought he really showed his class tidying things up and not giving them anything in Midfield.  He was also quick to look to move the ball on and tried to get forward as well.  He absolutely bullied their midfield.

Gordon a close second, he looked easily the most threatening player, really tried to make things happen but may tried too hard to be the star and his desperation to score also made him a bit greedy at times.

He played with a bit much arrogance perhaps though believing he's the best player out there and he can walk over the non league opposition.  I don't begrudge that, top players have that arrogance and belief in themselves (look at Rooney's film saying how he'd walk into the changing rooms at 16 believing he's the best in there) but maybe just needs to keep that in check and concentrate on doing the right thing.
