I was reading with interest the thread below regarding Helguson, Taarabt and a comparison to Hulse. I then got thinking about all of our signings. If you had to score them 1-5 on the scores below what would you give them and overall what is your average score, which then gets allocated to Sir Neil?
5 - Excellent
4- Good
3- Average
2 - Poor
1 - What was he thinking?
Paddy Kenny - 5 for me without a doubt, best keeper in this division
Clint Hill - 5 for me, though I found myself choosing between 4 and 5
Kyle Walker - 5 - Class
Danny Shittu - 4 at least, timely and just as we remembered. Not washed up and past it as lots said when others, like me, called for his return
Bradley Orr - 3 for me. Not quick enough, distribution average, heading quite good and doesn't give in
Pascal Chimbonda - 3 - Seems capable but not seen enough yet
Shaun Derry - 5 - Without Derry we wouldn't be top
Tommy Smith - 4 - Without injuries and a real run in the team he may have made 5. Not as good as I remember when he was with Watford but a good purchase
Jamie Mackie - 4 - Started really well but then did fade a bit for me before his terrible injury in January.
Wayne Routledge - 5 - He has been superb and is a real threat
Petter Vaagan Moen - 3 - Not seen enough yet but seems capable
Adel Taarabt - 5
Rob Hulse - 2 - Poor rather than "what were you thinking" as I would have bought him too and was excited like most at his signing
Leon Clarke - 1 - even Warnock admitted it was a risk when he bought him
Ishmael Miller - 4 - Seems to be a decent player,more to come I hope
Average score - 3.87. Closer to good than average and proved in the league position. Top marks Neil,take out Clarke whom he knew wouldn't work and the average is 4.14.
What's your average?
