PLAYER RATINGS vs LYON

[Frogfish]

Can't be arsed with a full report, however :

Reina - 7 - one mistake one goal, harsh.
Insua - 4 - too small (headers), too slow, no effect whatsoever going forward.
Agger - 7 - welcome back lad.
Carra - 5 - another mistake (and I deduct 2 points for this because it is now a regular occurrence), it just seems he is all wrong this season.
Kelly - 7 - our MoM. An excellent game played out of position. Darby won't make it.
Masherano - 7 - harried and had a good game but those around him let him down.
Aurelio - 6 - good start and fizzled out.
Lucas - 5 - disappeared badly when needed most.
Kuyt - 7 - I thought he had a good game.
Benayoun - 6 - didn't quite come off for him tonight apart from the well taken goal.
N'Gog - 5 - this lad won't make it, some tricks but lacks composure when under pressure.

Voronin - N/A
Skrtel - N/A
Babel - N/A

Pretty fair, although Eggnog and The Cunt deserve 4 at best

Kelly was good, and Casper scored so they were tops for me

What a shit squad we have, really

🙁 x 5 billion

 

[Jürgen4PM]

Kuyt did not have a good game!

 

[Gerry_A_Trick]

Kuyt more than Benny?

 

[dossena]

Carra was horrible.





Again.

Kuyt is really really off form ... But this is 'the usual' with him ... He'll play great for 2-3 months every season, and shit the rest of it. We REALLY need him to match Benayoun - especially with Torres and Gerrard injured ...

I don't mind him starting most games, but he should have been hauled off for Babel (or anyone) after 70 mins.

Match Benayoun?

Yossi was shit despite the goal mate.

I thought so. Lots of running around from Benny but he gave the ball away plenty of times and there was no end product - goal aside naturlich.

Kuyt however was pretty much the fulcrum of most attacks and without him nothing at all would have happened up that end of the pitch. A very good header well kept out by their keeper, and generally he kept running when all those around him were stopping.

Yes, but he scored ... and that's what we need when our squad is playing like this, goals. If Kuyt played like shit, and scored a goal, I'd be elated. That's all I want from both of them - because currently, no one else looks like putting the ball in the net ...

 

[manwithnoname]

Kuyt was ok, but Casper scored, so that's a good display

End of

 

[refugee]

Insua was complete and utter horse shit, almost all their attacks came from his side

Hmmm... I thought his touch was woeful, that "wtf" pass was well... wtf? Also he didn't score. Yeah, yeah, he huffed and puffed, but nothing really came off for him, where as it did for Benny. The goal alone bumps up Benny by a few marks for me, and it would have for most if we hadn't conceeded later in the game,

That's how I see it too ...

Kuyt will 'return' to the form we want from him. I just hope it's not before the season is 'finished'.
