St. BrynjarBig Foot Federici - his awful form and social media outbursts at the start of the season set the tone for us and left a huge black cloud over the club.
Enter Sandman...
Ascotexgunner I have to say, that like many I don't like this thread either. You can't blame this on players not trying, its just that the gap in quality between us and 70% ish of the premiership is more like a gulf at times.
Having said that, one player for me that sticks out, not because of performance but because of effort and attitude. And that's Guthrie. He at times just doesn't look like he gives a toss.

This, when he and Shorey gave the ball away against Arsenal they just stood there and watched Gervinho run at our defence, you can bet that if the two involved were McAnuff, Karacan, Hunt or Mariappa that they would have sprinted back until there lungs burst.

He's behaved like a child at times. I doubt we will get them money back spent on him either.
croche Roberts, had no intention of actually doing anything notable for the team, just wanted a platform to raise his profile and get media attention.
Alexander Litvinenko Got to be Nick Blackman. Not his fault, at all - but he reminds me of that guy who turned up for a job interview at the BBC and got put on screen as an expert.
Blackman is so, so out of his depth he's embarrassing - as though he walked through the wrong door and suddenly found himself out on the pitch.
Every other player has done some good things at one time or another - even those like McAnuff & L'wood who are competing for the Scapegoat of the Year award.
Blackman has had no redeeming features whatsoever. None! Zilch! Not a one!
(Not a reflection on him, though - more a reflection of the numpties who thought he'd be the answer to our problems and forced him out onto the pitch.)
St. Brynjar I retract my vote for Karacan, he's been superb in the last few games. I hope a few people might feel the same about Guthrie & Gunter.
