Ledley and Hennessey

Other players are underachieving but we know they can step up, on the other hand Joe Ledley does a nothing job in defensive midfield and Hennessey is an absolute liability. Flamini is far superior in Ledley's position and Speroni showed against Bolton that he still has more shot-stopping ability than Hennessey. Speroni would have definitely claimed one of those loose balls for West Ham's 1st and 3rd goals and would have stood a better chance for Carrolls judging by Hennessey's laughable attempt at a save.

When the options are there why these players are still being selected boggles the mind.

Are you on glue?

This afternoon alone the following were all worse than Lee.

Hennessey
Ward
Dann, arguably
Tomkins
Ledley
Puncheon
Townsend
Benteke (by miles)

Lee, Campbell and Fryers may not be the most talented players in the squad but at least they put in a shift. Zaha generally works his arse off.

Benteke today might have been arrested for loitering he did so little.

Nope. Old enough to know he's the worst player i've ever witnessed play for the club.

(Okay may be a slight exaggeration but it grinds my gears watching him play)

Okay. He's the least talented player at the club imo. So what if he puts in effort, if he's not good enough he shouldn't be playing. Liability. Loses the ball every time he gets it. Falls over. Kicks the ball out of play when barely under pressure because he has no idea what to do with it. The list goes on. He would do okay at a League 1 club. Period.

Slight exaggeration, come on. Over the years, really? Not premier league quality by a country mile, I'll give you that.

This is my assessment of our squad at the moment:

Category A - Quality and doing well in the shirt:

Zaha (Away for AFCON)
McArthur

Category B - Quality to good players but not performing:

Puncheon
Dann
Ward
Cabaye
Benteke
Townsend
Tomkins
Delaney

Category C - Need more game time, shown promise when used:

Flamini
Remy
Sako (AFCON)
Speroni
Lee

Category D - Not good enough and getting too much game time ahead of superior players:

Ledley
Hennessey
Kelly (though he's only been used because we had to)


Category E - Untested:

Schlupp

Spot on, to be fair. Though, you need one more category; 'Not good enough and should be sold immediately'. This category would include Lee, Mutch, potentially Fryers.

Category F - long term injured and replacements required for rest of season

Souare
Wickham
Mandanda (may return soon but other issues may supervene)

Mutch did not make the list? should he not have a special category of his very own, for those who wake up every morning and pinch themselves to check that the whole Premiership footballer thing is real.

I think Mutch was so poor we forgot he existed. Certainly against notloB we might as well have had ten men.

Fryers - can't make my mind up. Has shown promise and attitude but plays in a position where we have little available. Unlike the others not Pardewed so probably useful as a squad player for that reason. Kelly's now so ruined he looks like he needs a complete change.
