many thanks to the 127 Lifers who gave marks, that was most enjoyable if somewhat protracted. The successful passing percentage is moving even higher with only one player lower than 80% Apologies for the old pic of Albie but couldn't find a one in the new kit.
Glad to see the pass % is improving; it was poor at times last season.
Passing accuracy was something I really noticed amongst the Lionesses during the Euros. Generally it was excellent and I felt at the time it was something our men could do with emulating! Whether or not the Euros had any influence at all on our men, I have no idea, but I hope they keep up this improvement from wherever it has come.
I think you're right @AFKABartram about collectively underscoring but our lower numbers are a bit stretched by having 5 subs I think both Payne and McGrandles got under 7 and I suspect we may be scoring a little harsher if you're on for 25 mins and don't have a visible impact.
There were a couple who notably marked everyone down at the 6-7 range, I can only guess because it was Plymouth in L1 and they didn't want to go overboard, but would interested in their explanations. Plus there was the clown who scored Kirk and Fraser a 5, and Payne a 4.

This is what I hate, personally I rate players based on that game, not the opposition quality.
Suppose someone has to be bottom three even on our best days but it feels harsh on Fraser and McGrandles who both impressed me personally. Payne giving the ball away to start their attack that they scored from is understandable, although Dobson's part in it seems to have gone unnoticed with some.

While it doesn't mean that you automatically take the "the opposition were rubbish, rather than we were good" attitude, it does seem reasonable to take the quality of the opposition into account.
Especially with subs. Leaburn for example came on at 3-0 up against tired opponents down to 10 men, which is a massively easier circumstance than starting up front and having to slog the full 90 against tough opposition.
we all have different criteria for marking, be a bit boring for me if you all marked the same, however a lot easier - yes! all mark the same and make LL's job easier
I wouldn't be surprised if Dobson was on or about the 7.5 level several times last season. I'm absolutely certain he never scored that and had seven other players score above him though.

Marks softened by opponents down to 10, or number of subs? Or was it not quite the level of performance I thought it was?
Any thoughts?
