    Grading the current squad out of 10:

    Pickford - 7 on current performances and is going to get better
    manquillo - 6.5 pretty solid
    Deneyar - 5 all be it he has not played in his favoured position
    Kone - 6.5 needs a settled partner
    djillidobji - 5.5 looks raw
    PVA - 6.5 great going forward but can let us down defensively
    O'Shea - 6 still a calming influence
    Love - I think he's out of his depth in the Premier League
    Cattermole - 6.5 needs to be injury free
    Kirchoff - 7.5 different class in midfield
    Gooch - 6 another young raw talent
    Khaziri - 5 not had a lot of chance In the side but has looked decidedly average
    Watmore - 6 a little one dimensional
    Rodwell - 5 still no sign of the talent we thought we were getting
    McNair - 5.5 a utility player who has potential
    Pienaar - 5.5 not done much and has had limited opportunity
    Januzai - 5.5 I was expecting more from him so disappointed
    Ndong - 7 I like what I have seen so far
    Defoe - 6.5 starved of any decent service, which is why he probably is struggling with to take his current chances
    Borini - 6 when fit

    I'm sure most won't agree with the numbers but based on what I have seen so far this season that's what I think they are worth.

    I was being polite Bri and didn't want to **** with their confidence lol. But your scores are probably more realistic.

    Pretty much spot on imo. Although I think Rodwell has been decent when he's played - I'd probably rate him a 5 or 6.

    He's improving certainly, been one of our better midfielder. Still must improve further for me.
