Two first-team Swindon players guess their in-game numbers and ratings.

Dan Kemp and Jake Young gather at SN1 to speculate on their teammates’ EA Sports FC24 ratings for this season.

The participants also examine their individual ratings using their own duplicate Ultimate Team item:

A breathtaking performance from Town saw them run out 6-0 winners in their latest League Two fixture against Crawley Town at the County Ground on Saturday.

A first-half effort from Dan Kemp opened the scoring before four goals from Jake Young and a late sixth from Tyrese Shade rounded off a spectacular performance.

Town made one change to the side from that frantic 5-5 draw against Wrexham last time out in the league, with Tariq Uwakwe replacing Brooklyn Genesini on the left-hand side.

Another positive return was that of forward Rushian Hepburn-Murphy who returned to the matchday squad after a minor injury forced the 24-year-old’s absence.

Swindon had to maintain an early spell of pressure from Crawley, with the best opportunity to open the scoring falling in the 10th minute, with a strong run from Klaidi Lolos allowing Danilo Orsi to shoot but his effort was harmlessly over the bar.

Town responded minutes later, with Jake Young shooting just wide from 20 yards before George McEachran robbed a Crawley midfielder before teeing up Dan Kemp in a wide position inside the away side’s penalty area, but again saw his effort drag just wide of the far post.

The game lost a bit of tempo for the next 20 minutes until a neat move between Young and Kemp opened the scoring in the 34th minute.

After winning possession down the right-hand side, Young released the creative midfielder through on goal and Kemp drove into the Crawley penalty area and slotted the ball past Corey Addai to give Town the lead late in the second half.

This opener brought Town to life and saw Kemp have another couple of half-chances to double the lead before the break, but saw his half-efforts drag agonisingly high and wide.

Despite the chances, Swindon would take a lot of confidence going into the half as they looked to make their opportunities pay in the second half.
