Today's player ratings

Below are today's player ratings, according to FotMob:


Alnwick - 6.5
Ng - 5.9
Daland - 5.3
Goutas - 6.1
O'Dowda - 6.9
Robertson - 6.7
Turnbull - 7.1
Colwill - 7.1
Tanner - 6.1
Willock - 6.5
El Ghazi - 5.8

Meite - 6.1

Interesting how they get them, Colwill seems to get higher rating than i think (and i am a fan)

NG seemed to try to make up the midfield numbers in the second half but he has Tanner and Colwill in front of him and that left us wide open. Looks tactical rather than him upping stick and deciding I need to be a CM

But in general, i agree.Not sure how El Ghazi got that high a score

I agree mate.
Colwill 6.5 for me.

I’m amazed that Colwill got more than a 6.0 today and I have been supporting his inclusion for months !!

Robertson and O’Dowda were, yet again this season, head and shoulders above the rest.

Blackburn sussed us out that playing 3 upfront plus Colwill leaves us wide open out wide.

If we played 3 centre backs and then 5 in midfield you can then afford to play Colwill further up alongside the striker.

I’ve loved Riza but Wednesday and today worried me; not so much the results but the fact he didn’t change the system which clearly wasn’t working.

Need a decision on the manager, one way or the other, by the end of the international break.

Those player ratings look about right. Turnball, Robertson and O'Dowda were impressive.

Has anyone seen the game stat's? They don't half paint a different picture. You would have thought we were the 3-1 victors. 20 shots to 10. 12 corners to 1. 35 touches in their box compared to 20. 63% possession. We just lack that quality when it counts with the crosses, the final ball and obviously in front of goal!

Surprised we had 20 shots, how many were on target?

Very few and very few actually troubled their keeper. I was shocked when I saw we had that many

Colwill had a couple that were saved in the first half. Willock had a few shots, one which was a good save.

We had a lot of shots in that ten minute spell we were putting a lot of pressure on, a lot of which were blocked so didn't even find their way to the goalkeeper.

The penalty obviously created two shots, I think Turnbull had about four overall.

So yeah, a lot of shots but not that many that really troubled Pears.

Colwill over the past three games has shown why Bellamy and other managers are right that he is a long way from being the finished product. His decision making yesterday wasn't great and his finishing was poor. He needs to cut out the cryuff turn obsession and just keep it simple sonetimes too. Glad he is getting a run of games although I wouldn't have given him higher than 6 yesterday.
