Bryan Wade V Newcastle
BTW, This deserves a thread of its own.
Although the RDZ OUT/ are we entitled? threads should of course take priority.

It's a minor quibble but I think all of the good stuff he did warrants an 8. But you're right on his wastefulness, and also to point to his role in their disallowed goal -- Pascal absolutely slaughtered him afterwards.

I thought Veltman was motm.
He does tend to be the spare man when we move with possession up the pitch. I think this is partly because the opposition see him as the least threatening - he’s not gonna burst beyond someone for pace or play a defence splitting pass, but he will pretty much always pick a steady, intelligent option. He’s very predictable in what he does, but he does it very well.

Before the game I was very apprehensive - but for once we looked pretty solid and looked like a team with intent a complete difference to the team that played Bournemouth.
On another day (certainly a day before AFCON) Adingra gets 2 or 3 goals , he just needs to be a bit more calm. I think being a stand out player at that competition has put pressure on him to perform and he is overthinking/panicking.

Spot on.
Our defence is always better with Joel in the team. & the right side generally, I reckon

Adingra was a constant threat absolutely battered Konsa, yes he had a few wasteful moments yet got his reward in the end won the game for us.
Yeah fair enough, he certainly wasn’t perfect. But I’d say a 7/10 is a pretty average/standard/expected performance and he was better than that
More than a few.
But yes, I agree, please see my ratings.
6/10 is the industry standard for average.
Both halves out of 5.
I agree he was better than average.
As for whoscored.com - no thank you.
Sorry @dazzer6666
…yet it has most of the team around or slightly above 6
…and is broadly consistent with most other independent published ratings
I don’t look at other ratings.…yet it has most of the team around or slightly above 6
The Argus has our players significantly higher, but we really weren’t that good.
As for Pedro scoring higher than Veltman and Webster especially, there’s not a lot more to say…… it really is all opinions.
Outfits like whoscored are less opinions and more data-led…….which has it’s own limitationsI don’t look at other ratings.

On Adingra, I’ll always cut some slack for a young (and still fairly raw) winger if they’re as heavily involved as he was yesterday - got on the ball in promising attacking positions way more than any other player on the pitch which suggests he did a fair bit right, and is half the battle. Decision making and end product will come with age - a mixed bag at his stage of development is to be expected.
These are a good ratings.
I agree with all of them, bar Welbeck who I'm giving a 5 - thought he was lazy / poor, and Igor for whom I think a 7 is pretty generous. 6 for him.
Really delighted to see these, btw.
I thought he was excellent, and pleased to see (nearly) everyone recognising that.
Barco deserves a 10 just for nutmegging Matty Cash.
I said in the Veltman thread that I though the defence was superb as a whole. Vetlman was his usual excellent and consistent self, Webster was that elegant defender we know he can be, Dunk was....well Dunk and Igor did a good job and also got forward and played some excellent through balls.

And the dramatic “he killed me” crash to the ground when Cash left a foot dangling
I don’t normally approve of things like that but as it was against Villa…..
