Carlisle Player Ratings

[Dr The Singh]

Rating from Singh:

Overall Shit!!

The side lack confidence!!

[Bert]

Perhaps you need to watch the replay.

Maybe i do. Cos I'm sure Howard laid the ball off to Dyer?

If not i apologise.

[Alf Bentley]

Warner 5: Sound between sticks, so please stay there!

Gilbert 6: OK

Hobbs 5: Uncharacteristically erratic, even before playing out of position

Kisnorbo 5: Erratic, characteristically (this season)

Mattock 5: Seriously overrated on recent showings

Gradel 7: Good attitude and contribution

King 6: Great 1st half, but faded and gave away possession late on

Oakley 6: Erratic and lacking authority

Dyer 8 MOM: Best performance for months, hope it boosts his confidence for last 5 games

Fryatt 7: Busy, clever on ball, meshed well with midfield, great leap for goal

Howard 6: OK but a bit quiet today

Brown 7: Oozed calm authority; if Pearson must split the Hobbs-Morrison pairing, he looks best bet

Ajdarevic 6: Good passing/attitude, if a bit slow

[leicesterseddon]

Warner - 6 - Don't think he made any major fook-ups....but he still can't kick a ball

Gilbert - 4 - Very ethereal today - one of our worst first-team players this season IMO

Kisnorbo - 5 - Sloppy and hampers the side with his continued determination to kick the ball over the midfield every time he gets it

Hobbs - 6 - Best of a bad bunch at the back today. NP should play him only at centre half...on the right is not his position

Mattock - 4 - No pace, can't cross. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt because he's still young but I'm rapidly losing patience.

Gradel - 5 - Like a fly with a broken wing: buzzes about a lot, but never gets anywhere.

Oakley - 6.5 - Expected more from him today. Took his goal really well though.

King - 6 - Disappointed with his lack of involvement - was looking forward to having him back today.

Dyer - 5 - Another inept performance. Hasn't had a good game in a very very long time.

Fryatt - 6.5 - Scored a goal, but otherwise a spectator for most of the game.

Howard - 6 - Was taken out of the game completely by their centre-backs.

Subs

Brown - 5 - A shit mercenary. Nothing more.

Ajddarevic - 5.5 - Had all the right ideas but no real ability. Need more time to judge him properly.

1) Why oh why has NP suddenly decided to drop Morrison, a steady performer throughout much of this season, in favour of kisnorbo, who hasn't had a good game all season when he has been fit to play?

2) Why can't we give Edworthy a run-out? - I haven't heard he's injured and couldn't do any worse than Gilbert.

If not i apologise.

I thought Kingy won possession, slipped a man, drew the closing pack and fed the ball for Dyer to work his magic. But likewise if my old eyes were playing tricks. I don't mind any excuse to visit DavieG's picture house.

You're probably right to be fair - I wasn't paying that much attention to be honest.

Wasn't that the first goal?

[Bert]

Wasn't that the first goal?

That's what I'm on about! I certainly didn't see who won the ball for the second.

Warner - 6

Gilbert - 6

Hobbs - 5 - they walked passed him too many times today.

Kisnorbo - 6

Mattock - 4 He needs to stop believing the hype and start playing again!

Gradel - 7

Oakley - 6 terrible 1st half but good 2nd

King - 5 - gave away possession too easily in the dying minutes for them to equalise.

Dyer - 7

Howard - 7

Fryatt - 6.5

Brown - 7

Astrit - 6 looked promisin if not a little too much like Nalis in the looks dept

[Jimmy]

That's what I'm on about! I certainly didn't see who won the ball for the second.

for the second Warner threw the ball to Ajdarevic, he passed to King who advanced, laid the ball out to Dyer who attacked the full back swung in the cross and Fryatt scored

someone needs to tell Dyer to do that all the time because both times he attacked the full back on the outside and got a cross in we scored

Yeah, I got confused! I didn't see the build up to the second - That's why I can only remember the build up to the first, which is why I got confused.

Sorry Thracian!

He didn't win possesion, the ball was played to him by the new lad and then king layed the ball off to howard/dyer, i can't really remember

[teblin]

warner 6 - makes me very nervous

Gilber 6 - Was his usuall self until he got injured

Hobbs 6 - Looking like the played that played in october, might have something to do with kisnorbo

Kisnorbo 6 - stuggled first half improved 2nd

Mttock 6- average, but not pulling up any trees at the moment.

Gradel 6.5 - worked hard, tried hard(sometimes too hard) final ball and decision making lets him down

Oakley 6 - this guy is class for this league, but he gives the ball away far too much and he is better than that. Got the 6 got the goal.

King 6 - Was the best player first half, but should've done better after we scored the winner gave the ball away, and should've scored at the end too.

Dyer 7 - BEst he's played for months hopefully he'll have a bit of form in the run in. We need someone too.

Howard 6 - wasn't helped by the ref, but tried gave the ball away.

Fryatt 7 - worked hard, shhould've had at least one more goal.

Brown 6.5 - made the team more solid when he came on

Astrit 6.5 - Kept things simple, always wanted the ball.

[The Doctor]

Warner - 4 he scares me, he races randomly out the box to no effect

Gilbert - 5 not fair to judge really getting ganged up on and went off injured

Mattock - 5

Hobbs - 5

Kisnorbo - 4 it is no coincidence his two returns fro injury have coincided with our two poor spells

Gradel - 7 - battled hard one of the better players on the pitch

Dyer - 7 - back to his best hope he can stay this way for the rest of the season

King - 6

Oakley - 4 - may have scored but it was another poor performence from him

Fryatt - 6

Howard - 7 - showed how much we miss him when hes not available all of our play gos through him

Brown - 6 Tidy performance but poor defending for their second

Ajdarevic - 7 - gave us another dimension when he came on, showed up oakley with corners and every pass found a blue shirt

Personally i thought Oakley had a poor game, and cheaply gave the ball away far too much, and he rarely chases the ball down.

Although his goal saved him a bit.

i agree. Oakley was aweful, hs only contribution was his goal

Warner 5 - Some very erratic decision making at times

Gilbert 6

Kisnorbo 5

Hobbs 6

Mattock 5 - I'm a fan of Mattock but he was beaten time and time again on saturday and Powell/Berner would be a better option at the moment

Gradel 7 - Really positive display

Oakley 7

King 6

Dyer 7 - A hint of the form we know he is capable of again

Fryatt 6

Howard 6

Ajdarevic - 7 - Made a bit of an arse of himself with that first muddled stepover etc. but overcame it quickly and looked to go forward whenever possible. OS lists him as a striker, anybody know what his preferred position is?
