Toon Player Ratings Guide
|
At Newcatle-Online.com we like to be fair with the players and our
assessment of their individual performances so we have devised a ratings
system which we work off to award our marks to the players.
Ratings Guide
10 = world-class
For a player to achieve a rating of 10, the individual performance
has to be of world-class proportions. It is very rare for a player
to be awarded such a high mark but every now and again some performances
will merit a ten. Perhaps the individual will score a hat-trick or
turn a game destined to be lost on it's head all by himself. Those
type of super-human efforts will warrant such a high marking. For
example, Alan Shearer's 5 goals in the 8-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday
back in 1999 would justify a 10 rating. Or Jonathan Woodgate's performance
in the 0-0 home draw with Marseille back in 2004.
9 = top-class
Top-class is a notch down from world-class and for a player to achieve
such a rating they would have to perform to the best of their ability
and contribute something extra special in a game. For example, Scott
Parker's performance away to Arsenal this season warrants a rating
of nine because he didn't put a foot wrong and despite having made
just one full start in a year prior to that game, his work rate and
commitment was, well, top-class.
8 = excellent
Excellent is the type of rating that is awarded to performances that
although excellent, will have been tinged with one or two mistakes
which take something away from the overall performance of a player's
game. For example, Steven Taylor's performance at home to Manchester
United this season. He had an excellent game overall, but he was at
fault in some way for their opening goal which kind of detracts from
what would have otherwise be a top-class performance.
7 = very good
Very good is the type of rating that is awarded to a performance that
while, nothing spectacular, is above the level of average. Solid,
a job well done type of rating.
6 = average
Average is the type of rating that is awarded to a performance that
is neither good enough nor shocking enough - it's an in between type
of mark for performances of a mixed bag.
5 = poor
Poor is the type of rating that is awarded to a performance that simply
isn't good enough at this level where the player in question has put
in a bad shift. Maybe a performance littered with mistakes or a performance
littered with poor passing, gilt edged missed chances and so on.
4 & under = shocking
Shocking is the type of rating awarded to an awful 'get him off' type
of performance where the player has not only under performed or made
mistakes of a costly nature but also lacked heart and commitment to
the cause.
