almunia is shit and will always be. you need a better keeper in goal for matches against big teams. we can't efford to continue with him. sagna and clichy were also shit. I think they will never learn the cross the f***ing ball. gallas wasn't that bad but I think its his fault for the third goal. he run forward again and let all the deffance alone. vermaelen was one of our better players today. the fought till the end.

song was my man of the match. without him we would have conced 2 or 3 more goals. denilson was poor again today. I blame him for the second goal. cesc was average.

nasri was also shit today. crosses and dribbles were shit. I still think he needs time to get in form but don't play him in front of theo or nic. arshavin tried but couldn't do to much. he missed 2 big chances early in the game that could have changed the game.

Big Al is averaging out to a 1 today...

Can't say I disagree with that though. He's been getting higher ratings than I would have been giving him in the past.

How on earth are people still rating Sagna and Clichy anywhere near a 6???

Clichy was all over the place and couldn't handle the INCREDIBLE NANI!!! Then when Park scored, he ran away from PARK! JI SUNG PARK FFS!!

As for Sagna, their second goal he didn't have a clue what the f*ck to do.

If Clichy had gone to Park, Rooney or Nani would have scored.

So that's why he got a 6?? What's his excuse for being unable to handle The Incredible Nani?

6/10 doesn't mean good by any means, it means average. Mediocre. Didn't do much right, but didn't do much wrong either.

well if full back didn't do much in attack fase and f***ked something in a defence then that shouldn't be avarage, or you think that avarage is if you do nothing good and do just few things wrong!?

Doesn't matter, that's simply the way you defend in a crisis situation where you don't have enough defenders; you force the player to make a decision and make a crisp good pass, you don't gift him a free route to goal. Rooney or Nani would've scored IF Park's pass was good, he may have fluffed it.

You have to at least test the player's ability to create an opportunity, and if you have another defender you then go to the player he passed to and press them to make a good pass etc. if you do this you can force errors sometimes that get you out of jail but if you let someone just walk through on goal they will most likely score.

Plymouth could you redo your ratings please
