    overall no too sure, i think we could easily be 5 or 6 points better off and comfortably mid-table, wheri honestly think we will be come may.
    home form - quite consistant and needs to be too, should have had all 3 points v norwich, and at least a point against both reading and the blunts.
    away form - too negative and yet againlike last year we are practically giving the home team the points. must improve.

    muller 7 consistant but is capable of the odd howler
    steele 7 good shot stopper but doesn't command his box, future at the club depends on whether muller stays
    hassell 6 plays anywhwere and always gives 100%
    foster 7 best defender at the club
    moore 7 was dodgy and slow up to donny sending off, been very good since
    souza 6 aplayer i like but again prone to the odd gaffe, ie reading.
    kozluk 6 only real left back at club, and he's right footed!
    van hoemet 6 think he could be quite good given a run in the side at right back
    jcr 9 our little gem, plays anywhere and everywhere, i fear like muller he may be snapped up in january
    anderson 6 up until saturday been really disappointed with him
    colace 8 davey has found a gem here, i think he could play at a higher level
    leon 6 doesn't command games, is soft and loses the ball too often
    devaney 6 want him to shoot more when he's back
    el haimour 5 doesn't look good enough from what i've seen
    hume 7 was hitting his stride before morgan nearly took his head off
    macken 6 not a patch on last season, think his touch going too
    odejayi 4 where to start! must go in january
    mostto 4 not given a chance will also go in january
    rigters 4 unfit and doesn't look bothered
    coulson 4 been injured but isn't the answer to our goal problem
    cureton 4 doesn't look like scoring
    summary it doesn't take a rocket scientest to work out we are desperate up front, we also don't create enough from midfield
    hopefully the january sales will bring a striker and a creative midfielder

    Just 5 or 6?

    We should be in the playoffs with the amount of chances we've missed.

    Norwich...(missed penalty among others)
    Southampton...(missed chances, including an open net that Hume should've buried)
    Bristol City...(again, Hume and Macken missing two very good chances)
    Swansea...(94th Minute equalisers...)
    Reading...(draw at the very least)

    These are just the ones that stick out - there have been more, and probably will be even more.

    Moore best defender at the club by far and poor old Souza on the same points as Kozluk thats an insult to Souza.
    None of the strikers deserve any more than 5.

    Got to disagree with a few of those.........

    (-) Marks out of 10

    (7) Muller / Steele - I feel we have two of the best keepers in the Championship in Muller & Steele. Both outstanding keepers, great shot stoppers and consistent performers. Steele started season well and was unlucky to lose his place to Muller, but there is no doubting Muller is an influential player.
    (7) Souza - Dominant in the air, but has made some major clangers that have resulted in goals for opposition.
    (7) Foster - Mr consistent last season started slowly this year but is back to his best. Fully committed whether at centre half or right fullback.
    (8) Moore - Got alot of flak in his first few games, but has really turned things around and is big influence.
    (7) Kozluk - Has stepped up his game this season and claimed the left back role.
    (6) Hassell - Always commited to the cause Bobby has done well in all positions when call upon. Good squad player!
    (5) Van Homeot - Out of comfidence but has done ok when called upon. Needs a good run in the side.
    (9) JCR - Has played out of his skin so far this season. I only hope we can keep hold of him and keep him focused.
    (7) Anderson - Has the talent to be an outstanding player but seems to be stuck in 3rd gear. If only he could step it up a gear! perhaps his goal may help to push him on.
    (5) Leon - Very talented but lightweight and lacks pace. Has looks world class in some games and out of sorts in others. Great sqaud player but I'm not convinced he can perform consitently in this league. Jury still out.
    (7) Devaney - gets stick from some fans but I feel he is a key player for us. His work rate alone justifies his place.
    (8) Colace - still finding his feet in the championship but looks a class act. I'm excited to see how he develops.
    (5) El Haimour - has had little chance to show us what he can do. Like leon he's small and lighweight, but unlike leon he's not afraid to put a foot in. Jury out!
    (7) Hume - was just staring to find his feet. Just hope he make it back to the player he was.
    (6) Macken - Works hard for the team but doesn't score enough goals. But with Ferenczi gone he has been asked to play target man, which is not his natural role.
    (3) Odejayi - His workrate has vastly improved from last season. But game after game he proves he is not good enough at this level and will never score goals (or at least enough goals to justify his place). Cash whilst the FA cup memory is fresh in peoples memories.
    (6) Mostto - Looks up for it this season but hasn't been given a run. I still feel he has something to offer but he needs a run in the side to show us what he can do.
    (5) Rigters - very harshly criticised by some fans. Needs a run in the side to show us what he can do. Looked up for it when he came on on Saturday.
    (-) Coulson - hasn't played enough for him to be judged so far this year. But he msut be praised for coming back so soon from his injury, scoring on return for reserves and subsequent games, and keeping focused following loss of his old man.
    (6) Cureton - has quality but jury is out.


    Player of season so far:
    1. JCR
    2. Moore
    3. Colace


    Transfer targets:
    1. Mark Yeates
    2. Chris Porter
    3. Billy Sharp (Loan)

    Out
    1. KO
    2. Mostto

    Are you serious re Kozluk?

    Has had one bad game this year, that we still ended up winning. Hes been missed as much as Moore.

    RE: Are you serious re Kozluk?

    He did improve from his early poor form but he's one of those players that can make mistakes and some how the fans
    don't pick up on them.
