Dailly - 5
that's an interesting viewpoint.
In my opinion i don't think he did anything wrong defensively, helps maintain a calming cover to Llera's more noticeable lead, and distribution was simple and sound. Just what you need from a senior player.
If you don't mind divulging, i would be interested to know what you or others feel he should be doing more, or didn't do effectively enough.

He'd be the one injury i wouldn't want currently.
If you only want to give a 5 to someone for Saturday, it in no way should apply to any of the defence.....all of whom should have got 7 and on the odd occasion an 8.
The 5's and 6's were up front.
Oooooooh sharp as a razor today my lad....sharp as a razor!
second in a row as well
esp. a central defender who would have less chance to get forward and help out in attack as a full-back could
I think he has set himself high standards and his main strengths are positional play and timing. I thought on a fair few occasions on Saturday he slightly misread situations and got too advanced of the CF resulting in the ball dropping in behind him. I actually thought Llera had a better game as on these occasions he tidied it up which is why it most probably went unnoticed. The score of 5 was due to it being his worse game so far for us in my opinion but in his defence his bad games are nowhere near as bad as others.
Fair enough. I'm always interested in how others interpret games and what they focus on, so cheers for expanding.
Abbott is an absolute beast, who frequently had his elbows out and did the Andy Gray-esque handball control a few times, only for the ref to penalise him the one time he trapped it perfectly on his chest. I thought Dailly did very well, and was harshly called up several times for fouls that noone but the ref could see.
I'd be interested in chucking him up front in the last 10 minutes of matches (once Sodje's back) as he used to be a forward.
boogie....come on now credit where it's due...Lllera had a pretty decent game on Saturday and all credit to him too, particularly after the nightmare that was Colchester.
Agreed SoundAs. I can only remember a single error by Llera all game, and it was a very minor one - he hooked it out for a throw when an easy knock back to Elliot was on. But given the mix-up at Colchester it's easy to understand why he may have been apprehensive in that situation. He made a couple of decent runs into space and hit the bar. He did try his cross field long ball one or two times too many in the first half though.
