Players ratings so far.
De geay - 9 world class
Jones - 6 too injury prone
Rojo - 7 continues improvement
Smalling - 6 inconsistent
Shaw - 5 very disappointing
Evans - 4 sell in summer
Valencia - 6 average
Herrara - 7 should be starting
Mata - 6 fair weather player
Demaria - 6 too light.not doing enough
Fellani - 6 limited, sloppy, awkward
Young - 7 most improved
Januzaj - 5 struggling to adapt
Vanpercie- 5 past best, sell summer
Rooney - 6 over paid, yet gives 100%
Falcao - 5 won't keep. Disappointing
Wilson - 6 still learning, potential

Interesting, paat from DDg you see Young as the highest rated player, along with Herrera who has hardly played. You've also given Jones 6 because he gets injured, and scored Rooney the same as Wilson, Mata, and Smalling. I'm not a Rooney fan but given where he has been being played, he has done his best; what he gets paid is irrelevant to his 'rating'
If Mata is a fair weather player, how come he was Chelsea's player of the year? Shaw is very disappointing? You must be watching different games to me, the lad looks full of potential. I understand the sentiment but it's somewhat simplistic to give a score out of 10
1 other small point, you managed to spell a quarter of the names wrong, a new world record I believe.

AJH,
I just love your "small point".
Chully, (you see what i did there :P )
Would have thought that for someone in a position to rate the players, you surely must have watched them enough to get most names right.?! That being said geay? Percie? Fellani? Herrara? DeMaria? You impressed me with Falcao and Januzaj though. Just having a laugh mate, nothing personal just banter!!!

Agree with some of it but can not see how you rate Wilson and Rooney the same way and completely disagree on shaw.
It's easy to blame Rooney when things are not going well but i think he has been really good this year and the manager is playing him in areas he is not best at, but he gets on with it.
United fans have an unfortunate tendency to hail every new young player as Cesar on 5 minutes of a good performance. Remember reading on this page we had the next Ronaldo and scholes in Zaha, Powell

Bless him, spelling just might be his strong point. . . . Just kidding, shame on you guys! ;o)

As mentioned above the best thing is that he managed to spell Falcao and Januzaj correct, the 2 names most people struggle to spell right on here!
Spelling mistakes and meaningless marks out of 10, my favourite. The marks for Rooney made me laugh, he gets 6 because he is overpaid but gives 100%. the same as Jones! As much as people hate to see Fellaini doing well because it's 'not the United way' he has been brilliant almost every time he has played this season.

Chilly mate, I'm only joking re the spelling, it's been bit of a theme for a while now. I've been spelling Herrera wrong all year
