"...PLAYER RATINGS, Dons vs West Ham:
Willy Gueret 6 remained largely untested. One moment stuck in no-mans-land went unpunished.
Dean Lewington 7 played confidently when moved into a central role
Mathias Doumbe (45mins) 7 calming influence at the back
Sean O'Hanlon (60mins) 7 looked close to full fitness and worked well with Doumbe
Stephen Gleeson (81mins) 8 becoming an accomplished right-back, with two great blocks
Angelo Balanta 8 showed no fear against a strong West Ham team on his home debut
Dietmar Hamman (45mins) 7 another cool performance, adding a touch of class to the midfield
Peter Leven (82mins) 7 industrious and full of energy as the lynch-pin in the middle
Luke Chadwick (66mins) 7 played well out wide against his former club
Sam Baldock (71mins) 7 ran for everything and linked well with Easter
Jermaine Easter (77mins) 7 came closest to beating Green in the first half and came close with two headers
So:
-We΄re playing 4-3-3 and don΄t have enough of "wingers".
-We have a player from Southend that is no better on trial
-Balantas speed and technique would make him perfect as a winger in a 4-3-3 formation.
Why doesn΄t we give him the chance? Their best player against a Prem side...
