We have introduced a new concept for the Ugly Inside player ratings, now after 48 hours the voting will be locked and the winner announced..
Its always good to see how other have assessed each individuals performance, on the Ugly for the last few years we have had a player ratings section, which has been used to varying degrees, over the course of the season it does give the overall picture of how after each different match, the supporters have viewed a players performance, giving a clearer view of a players average over the year as it smooths out the peaks and troughs and takes out the knee jerk votes when it comes to a one off vote for player of the season at the end of the year.
So here we have the first assessment of the year and after the voting has closed Wanyama has come out with an average score of 7.7 out of 10 just shading Dusan Tadic into joint second with Nathaniel Clyne both on 7.5.
Traditionally we have always gone low with our ratings on the Ugly and this has been reflected in the full voting below
6.3 Fraser Forster
6.9 Jose Fonte
6.9 Ryan Bertrand
7.5 Nathaniel Clyne
5.5 Maya Yoshida
6.6 Morgan Schneiderlin
7.7 Victor Wanyama
6.3 Steven Davis
7.5 Dusan Tadic
7.3 James Ward-Prowse
5.8 Graziano Pelle
5.5 Shane Long
6.0 Lloyd Isgrove
Referee 6.8
Match Rating 6.9
Overall though I think Wanyama is a deserved winner, perhaps Tadic might have shaded it if he had stayed on and I think Clyne definately got a point or two extra because of his goal, but Wanyama just put in a good strong solid performance which although did not produce an assist in the case of tadic or a goal in the case of Clyne, ticket all the boxes.
The voting will open again after the West Brom game on Saturday and will remain open till 3pm on Monday giving everyone plenty of time to have their say and even add a comment as well.
So what do you all think was Victor a worthy Victor in this poll / Comments Please.
