Sunderland
0-3: Sunday, 22nd May(Replaced Hines, 54 mins) Probably another who is off shortly. His performance matched his season. Lots of running about with little result.
Chelsea
0-3: Saturday, 23rd April(Replaced Sears, 82 mins) Barely involved.
Manchester City
1-2: Saturday, 23rd April(Replaced Boa Morte, 79 mins) Little involvement.
Aston Villa
1-2: Saturday, 16th AprilI’d honestly forgotten he was playing until I had to write this.
Bolton Wanderers
0-3: Saturday, 9th AprilDid not play.
Manchester United
2-4: Saturday, 2nd April(Replaced O'Neil, 83 mins) Comments to follow.
Tottenham Hotspur
0-0: Saturday, 19th March(Replaced Cole, 78 mins) Remember the days when you only had one sub? Oh just me then. Only on for a few minutes without registering one way or the other really.
Stoke City
1-2: Sunday, 13th MarchFarly anonymous bar one or two runs. His petulance saw him cautioned yet again and could prove problematic if not addressed soon.
Stoke City
3-0: Saturday, 5th March(Replaced Cole, 86 mins) I can’t really give him a mark as he came on and he barely had a chance to touch the ball. I bet the boss sticks a mark in to make the database work though.
Birmingham City
0-1: Sunday, 6th FebruaryMost of what was good came from him and the recent boost in confidence his goals have brought was there for all to see. Still needs to work on shot/pass selection.
Blackpool
3-1: Wednesday, 2nd FebruaryFive goals in two games can't be sniffed at - and his second was an instant Goal of the Season contender.
Nottingham Forest
3-2: Sunday, 30th JanuaryBut for both 'keepers he could have had his name on both sides of the goals ledger. Otherwise promised little and delivered it.
Birmingham City
2-1: Tuesday, 11th JanuaryComments to follow.
Barnsley
2-0: Saturday, 8th JanuaryCaused the visitors a lot of problems in the first half but, in common with the rest of the side, seemed to leave his inspiration in the changing room at half time.
Newcastle United
0-5: Wednesday, 5th January(Replaced Piquionne, 46 mins) Comments to follow.
Wolverhampton Wanderers
2-0: Saturday, 1st JanuaryDid not play.
Everton

Fulham

Manchester United
4-0: Tuesday, 30th NovemberFine performance Played a part in all four goals and was a constant threat throughout. MOTM for me.
Wigan Athletic
3-1: Saturday, 27th NovemberLively and showed some nice combination play alongside Piquionne. Fine goal and excellent set up for Parker.
Liverpool
0-3: Saturday, 20th NovemberComments to follow.
Blackpool
0-0: Saturday, 13th NovemberFrustrating. One minute he goes forward and you think that he's a world-beater. Then he shoots when he should pass and passes when he should shoot.
West Bromwich Albion

Arsenal
0-1: Saturday, 30th OctoberNot noted for his defensive qualities and did little to change that point of view. Wasted a couple of free-kicks.
Stoke City
3-1: Wednesday, 27th October(Replaced Barrera, 69 mins) Well taken goal. Made a hellofa difference and also picks up a 5.9 for artistic impression for the gymnastics.
Newcastle United
1-2: Saturday, 23rd OctoberA good first half spell aside he seemed bemused as to what his role should actually entail. He wasn't the only one.
Wolverhampton Wanderers
1-1: Saturday, 16th OctoberPromised much but delivered little: passing, shooting and decision making poor. Lucky to get the pen.
Fulham
1-1: Saturday, 2nd OctoberAnother who showed some good touches – not least for the goal. However wasted some good opportunities for crosses.
Tottenham Hotspur
1-0: Sunday, 26th SeptemberStrong candidate for MOTM – full of running and a constant worry to the Spurs defence. His corners are a bit variable though.

Sunderland
2-1: Tuesday, 21st SeptemberImpressive. Full of confidence and not afraid to take his man on, but found himself ahead of play on a few occasions - the midfield was slow to support him (largely down to Boa Morte being as dynamic as a house brick).
Stoke City
1-1: Saturday, 18th SeptemberLooks like a dangerous sword with a blunt blade. Could potentially be a deadly player but very raw. Definitely a player with real potential though and needs to be playing under a manager with discipline. Could and should be a big star of the future - hopefully with us.
Chelsea
1-3: Saturday, 11th SeptemberA decent enough debut marred only by profligacy in front of goal.
