I've taken no account of price tags in the following, just how I see people's input so far-

if I was going by price Campbell would rate higher than Pav ATM for example

Heurelho Gomes 7/10 - since recovering from injury has looked much better, could easily go to 8 by this time next month

Cesar Sanchez 3/10 - extremely disappointing - we have needed to rest Gomes a few times but apparently he's not up to it - he should be playing tonight (IMHO) but is he trusted

of course it could be the managers' fault for ignoring him, but I have to assume he isn't doing the biz in training - if it's the managers' fault then apologies to CS and 7/10

Vedran Corluka 8/10 - has been culpable in a few goals against us (I vividly remember the Everton one, but I think there has been others- might be wrong) - partly due to lack of pace, but overall v.good - v. cool- excellent purchase

David Bentley 3/10 Highly disappointing should have been replaced by O'Hara for the last 3 games

Luka Modric 7/10 still has a fair bit to prove - I think his end product (assists and goals) is less than the much maligned JJ, and JJ does a hell of a lot more than him in other areas - but undoubted quality and may hit 8 soon too

Roman Pavulychenko 5/10 - disappointing - but shows he has an eye for a finish - not enough all round play yet tho

Giovani Dos Santos 3/10 very disappointing - hardly seen anything of him - yes he's been injured, but that's been of no use to us - no goals no assists (AFAIK)- has a lot to do to justify the hype around him - maybe by next month will have a very different mark

Fraizer Campbell 4.5/10 - done some useful stuff, but not quite up to it ATM - another who maybe will improve soon

Gomes 6/10 Looks to be improving and needs to be given more time, TP will sort him out.

Corluka 7/10 He is a class act, but just worry that he is too casual at times.

Bentley 4/10 Overrated and paid way over the odds, hasn't been good and the formation doesn't suit him.

Modric 7/10 Starting to look like the business, would love to see him play behind two strikers regularly.

Pav 5/10 Looks off the pace and doesn't seem overly enthusiastic.

Campbell 5/10 Doesn't get many games, has shown some good signs, but I wouldn't want him permanently.
