Miller runs like one of the Woodentops and defends like Madame Cholay. He has gone into my worst-ever Chesterfield XI.
Kellerman really can't play where Cookie played him. A working man's midfielder, not good enough to get as angry as he does.
Denton is a liability, we've no idea how to use him That isn't his fault. He does what he does. We play at him with 10 others.
Weston is anonymous most of the time. Works, but nary a creative thought.
Mandeville's there. He lacks strength, gets thinner by the day and may be slowly disappearing. Skill, touch, then where's he gone?
Asante needs a complete summer of pre-season training to get back to fitness, he's lost his speed and his touch has deserted him at the moment.
McCourt is an insult to shorts. You don't need to get changed to hit two long-range crackers per season.
Loach is absolutely the kind of keeper a defence doesn't want behind it, has the skills but you're never sure he's brought them.
Minter, if you are permanently reserve to a bloke who is no good that has to say something.
Maguire, the best passer in our defence, needs to score more and defend more.
Gunning, ugly old bruiser, gets injured answering his mobile.
Grimes, wild man centre back, if we didn't have him we'd have to buy a clone anyway.
Whittle, never brilliant, rarely poor, that's a blessing and we really missed him Saturday.
Carline has been a big loss since his injury.
King, blimey someone who can actually play if his brain kicks in and allows him to stay on the field.
Rowe, needs to lose a bit of weight, get properly fit, but we haven't got many better than him.
Kerr, people don't seem to rate him, when I've seen him he wouldn't be the first on the list for the bullet by any means.
Quigley, can play a bit, but you need to have some flair for goals or assists at centre forward, and his is in a box buried deep somewhere.
Rowley, can play much better than most of our midfield and is more creative, but he just doesn't anymore.
Payne, by name, nature and performance, one of our worst-ever signings.
Croll, thought he was good but his career is a history of injuries.
Williams, well he isn't bad, a cog in a wheel but not much to get excited about.
Oyeleke, looked half-fit to me on Saturday, he is a good player but he is another with fitness issues.
Tshimanga, Mullin has finally overtaken his goals, that says it all, if he comes back as good then we'll have trouble keeping him.
Khan, strong, dangerous runs forward, got a goal in him, needs to engage brain when passing, but would be in my League XI.
Hollis, just when he was changing my opinion on him, he got injured forever it seems.
Clarke, our Jack Grealish, sadly most of his appearances are in Casualty.
Can't think who I missed, but in general our players needed the input of a James Rowe to make them one of the top teams at this level. Once he'd gone so had everything that made them special. The tarnish was evident everywhere. I think Cookie may be losing his mojo, he looked as though lava was going to start flowing on Saturday. If I was Kellerman I'd be self-isolating with pretend-Covid now after what he said when being subbed. The play-offs are an irrelevance, because even if we get there we have no plan on how to play through midfield and create a goal scoring opportunity and then we haven't got a fully-fit goal scorer to get on the end of it in any case. Whether Cookie can still create that magic is very much open to question. He didn't manage it at Ipswich, but then nor has his successor.
