END OF YEAR PLAYER RATINGS

David Marshall
Poor. OK at the start of the season, but it's as if being dropped for Heaton has affected him. 4

Tom Heaton
Great signing, a lot better than his previous spell with us. For some reason I always feel comfortable when he plays, and it could have been 5 or 6 for Bristol yesterday if it wasn't for him. 7

Kevin McNaughton
Superb so far, without a doubt our best defender and has got an eye for going forward more this season. He links up with Burke so well 8

Lee Naylor
With only a handful of decent games, and the rest being incredibly poor, and most of our losses point to him being so easy to get past, it's a terrible signing by Dave. 3

Gavin Rae
Forgot he still played for us until he came on as a substitute against Watford. Apart from a goal against Hull, he's added nothing to our side this season. 2

Mark Hudson
By far better than last season, shown some significant improvements, and has had a few man of the match performances. However, he has had some awful games along the way which has dented his score a bit. 6

Gabor Gyepes
Has had some cracking games, but the majority of the times he's played he's made some vital mistakes that have cost us. 5

Peter Whittingham
Hasn't done anything near to the magic he produced last season, but is still a vital part of our midfield. Laziness has been ever present this season though, as opposed to last season where he looked hungry for the ball. 6

Michael Chopra
Bar his injury, and the weight gain that had an effect on his terrier like style for a couple of games, he's been the most threatening player on the pitch for some games, especially in Bothroyd's absence. However, that injury, and that weight gain has effected his overall performance so far. 6

Jay Bothroyd
By far our best player. He seems to finish everything this season other than playing his playstation at home, forgetting he plays for Cardiff and we kind of need him right now, as without him we're a bunch of bottlers. 9

Steve McPhail
Possibly his worst season with us so far, but stills hows moments of magic, especially against Coventry. 5

Chris Burke
He always poses a threat to the opposition, but since the Swansea loss it's as if he hasn't been at his best, or anywhere near it. 6

Paul Quinn
Who? 0

Andy Keogh
Has improved a lot recently, however it seems as if he has a phobia of facing towards the goal, and prefers to get the ball, and play it back all the time. Scored two all important goals for us, and was possibly our best player against Coventry. 6

Jason Koumas
When are Wigan going to admit that they just sent us a lookalike? 2

Seyi Olofinjana
When he's on form, he is outstanding. When he isn't, he's god-awful. Scored some great goals this season though, it just seems when we're not playing well he's the last person to want to keep his head up. 7

Daniel Drinkwater
When he's played, he's definitely showed some of the signs why he's a Manchester United academy player, however, it's disappointing that at his age, he's constantly plagued by an injury 4

Darcy Blake
Dave Jones seems to want to play him everywhere where we're failing, as if he's the best player in the world. Unfortunately it's like trying to fix a leaking pipe by smashing it to pieces with a wrench. Not even a shadow of what he was last season 3

Adam Matthews
Though he hasn't been outstanding this season, he definitely shows that if you play him instead of Naylor, that we might win a game one of these days. 3

Aaron Wildig
Who? 0

Chris Riggott
Outstanding in his debut against Coventry, it looks as if his career might be over after yesterday's game against Bristol. Hope he gets well soon. 1

Craig Bellamy
Outstanding in 50% of games, the other 50% he's abysmal. Definitely one of our best players though. 6



Dave Jones, Manager
Made us look like Brazil before we lost to Swansea. After that loss though, we look more like Aldershot Town. 5

For a minute I thought you meant 2010 as a whole but you must mean this season.

I do yes

I would say that is pretty fair other than a 4 for Marshall?
