Walsall player ratings v Eastleigh: One 8 and impressive 7s as Saddlers ease through in FA Cup
Kieran Gallop rates the Walsall players after their comfortable 3-0 victory over Eastleigh in the FA Cup.
Myles Roberts – Solid: 7
Made an important save from Saunders and McGuckin in the first half but wasn’t really tested after that.
Evan Weir – Vital: 8
Bundled the ball home in the sixth minute to get the ball rolling and followed it up in the second half with a pinpoint pass down the left to find Daniel Kanu for the second. Bar an early mix-up with Flint, completed all defensive duties diligently.
Aden Flint – Grew: 7
A couple of near mishaps in the first half, but following this was a towering unit at the heart of the back three.
Rico Browne – Solid: 7
Did not have an awful lot to do following Eastleigh’s spell after the opening goal, and equally didn’t put a foot wrong.
