Ratings: Patricio - Along with Coentrao the best player today, kept us in the game with his saves. 8/10 Piccini - Just couldn't get things going offensively and struggled defensively. 6/10 Coates - Poor on the 2nd goal, he really struggled tonight. 6/10 Mathieu - Not at his best either but at least joined the attack to try and get a goal. 6.5/10 Coentrao - Our best outfield player, I understand we needed more offense but he should have stayed. 7.5/10 Battaglia - I believe he was also at fault on the 2nd goal, needs to step up his game. 6/10 William - Played further up the pitch in the CM role but its not his position. We need to pick one at DM - William or Battaglia. Not both. Where's Wendel? We're sorely lacking a box-to-box. 6/10 Acuna - Better game from him, more active but his final decisions in general were lacking. 6.5/10 Bruno Cesar - Ahh the man. The myth. The legend. Not the quality player we should have to play. 5.5/10 Bruno Fernandes - Uninspired today. Dude looks completely worn out. No squad rotation, no problem. 6/10 Doumbia - Similar to Acuna, got into the right places but finishing was sorely lacking. 6/10 Subs: Montero - Missed a glorious chance, but looks out of form in general. 6/10 Ruben Ribeiro - Came in but also had little impact. Sometimes too individualistic with the ball. 6/10 Bryan Ruiz - Also no impact on the game, and replaced Coentrao which I didn't quite understand. 5.5/10
If you don't like them then I'll stop doing them. As for Jesus, its a 5/10 for poor squad selection, subs and overall piss poor management.
Haha no dude. Love having you around here. Someone I can sulk to. You are an awesome contributor. Just think they're pointless since we lost.
We all are, but I enjoy reading the ratings win or loss. It’s just hard to swallow when it’s 5’s and 6’s across the board lol
I’ll give them credit they played hard and deserved the win, but they looked like a top team out there, and that’s my issue. Even with injuries we’re the better team and really should handle our business against a lower team like this. To basically piss away your chance at the league because of a loss to Estoril is a bit of a kick to the nuts.
Estoril has turned their poor season start around. JJ didn't learn anything from that 1st half of Estoril vs FCP.
