Cf Posted Monday at 19:18 Share Posted Monday at 19:18 (edited) So a while ago I did a ranking our squad thread where we all ranked our players. I thought it might be a more interesting idea if we did it player by player and put in a poll so everyone can vote and we can come up with some overall rankings. I'll keep this post updated with everyone's score and at the end we'll have a fully ranked squad from the brilliant minds of NO. I don't think i've made a poll before so hopefully this works Grade System A - World class. Could play for any team in the world. B - One of the best in their position. Would get game time for most teams but they're a level below the elite. C - Solid PL starter. A team consisting entirely of Cs should be comfortable in the PL but wouldn't challenge for the top places. D - PL squad filler. Everyone needs a squad. These are the players who can help with rotation and backup but you wouldn't want them starting too often. E - Not good enough either by virtue of general ability or being past their prime. Grades 1. Dubravka - D+ 2. Trippier - C- 4. Botman - B 5. Schar - C- 6. Lascelles - E+ Edited 4 hours ago by Cf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cf Posted Monday at 19:19 Share Posted Monday at 19:19 So to start up we have Dubravka. Probably the best of two less than ideal options I think is my straightforward analysis here. Feel free to post your thoughts and make sure to vote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Posted Monday at 19:40 Share Posted Monday at 19:40 Between a C and a D. Capable at PL level still. We’re fortunate we had him around while Pope was out injured, and he’a fully deserved a one year contract extension (providing the wages aren’t massive).

I went for a C, overall his time here has been a success, and prior to his injuries he was a really good keeper and shot stopper, and he's stepped up this season and been better than Pope quite comfortably this season imo, but he has dropped off a fair amount since them injuries, and you have the whole Man United thing.

Not meant as a condescending question in its entirety btw. I imagine people associated with the club will check here from time to time. Wouldn't be particularly helpful to some, I imagine. Reading all the negativity. But then you surely get immune to the criticism eventually? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted Monday at 20:33 Share Posted Monday at 20:33 C, I reckon. There aren't that many true difference makers in the league. Could be and has been a serviceable starter. I think Newcastle want a B given our aspirations though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted Monday at 21:33 Share Posted Monday at 21:33 I don’t think he can be C because a team of his quality players would not be comfortable in the PL. We know because that’s what we used to have Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted Monday at 21:37 Share Posted Monday at 21:37 D seems harsh. But he’s not really a C either, IMO. C minus it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A team consisting entirely of Cs should be comfortable in the PL but wouldn't challenge for the top places. So a good starter for Palace, Wolves, Everton, West Ham, Brentford, etc. I think he is that. We just want more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted Monday at 22:14 Share Posted Monday at 22:14 Absolute banter merchants giving an A. Easy D. Less than a year ago it was an E but he's had a great turnaround and should still be in the team imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
