    End of Season Player Ratings

    As proposed by the Birmingham Mail. It’s a reasonable assessment, given that 4 is always going to be the lowest grade.
    I think I would probably given Dike 6, and maybe Griffiths 5, overall a fair judgement, but nevertheless a disgraceful reflection in a number of cases!

    Palmer 7, Button 4, Griffiths 6,
    Furlong 6, Townsend 6, Bartley 5, Pieters 6, AJ 6, O’Shea 7, Kelly 5,
    Yoku 8, Molumby 8, Chalobah 4, Livermore 5, Reach 4, Albrighton 4, TGH 5, Grady 6, Wallace 7, Swift 7, Rogic 4, Phillips 6
    Grant 4, Dike 7, Asante 7

    Pretty fair Pranders. I might have gone 7 each for furlong and Townsend. Agree with you on dike and not sure whether Grady merits a 7. But overall not bad.

    My amendments would be…….

    …….Palmer 8, Kelly 4, Grady 3, Grant 2 (being generous), Dike 4.

    How the Hell do Button, Reach and Grant get rated as high as a 4?

    I think Pieters deserves more than a 6, so many of the players spent time out injured it difficult to give anyone higher marks.

    Good point. Ajayi has played well but not enough games to judge.

    Dike scoring 7 that means he is seen as above average!! Actually he as scored 7 goals meaning he is our equal top scorer, quite poor really.

    I know strikers don't always have to score goals so long as he can put himself around, providing a bit of hustle and bustle and with his muscular frame i'd have expected a lot more of this but IMO he has been sadly lacking, especially in providing and creating chances for others and also hasn't provided much of that off the ball movement either, defo no more than a 4

    I still remain unconvinced as to his prowess salt buddy. Too many dangerous back passes for my liking, from which we have paid the price. He may well be ‘playing to instructions’ but there does seem to be an inordinate number of passes back to the keeper, often from well up the field.
    Having said that, defensively he has been adequate.

    I meant this ‘reply’ to be to saltnshake re Pieters !

    Think that -with the exception of Dike (who is certainly not a 7 imho)- the ratings are pretty accurate to be fair. That said, I can see why some might want to score Grady, Grant and Button lower given some of their performances!
