Ok so it's pretty simple. How much MAN/WOMAN LOVE do you have for the current Albion squad given the MAN/WOMAN LOVE benchmark of Calderon = 10/10

Please bear in mind that this not about how good a player you think they are......More about how much you would personally like to give them a big fat manly/womanly bear hug.

I'd go with:

Kayal = 9.5 Calderons
Bruno = 9.5 Calderons
Zamora = 9 Calderons (Services rendered)
Knockaert = 9 Calderons
Stevens = 8.5 Calderons
Stockdale = 8.5 Calderons
Hemed = 8 Calderons
Rosenior = 8 Calderons
Goldson = 8 Calderons
Bong = 7.5 Calderons
Dunk = 7.5 Calderons
Greer = 7.5 Calderons
Skalak = 7 Calderons
Murphy = 7 Calderons
Wilson = 7 Calderons
Lua Lua = 6.5 Calderons
Sidwell = 6.5 Calderons
Baldock = 6 Calderons
March = 6 Calderons (too long out.....Man love slipping...)

Rest lower than 6 for me but having the nagging feeling I've forgotten someone!

Bear in mind that a level 5 on the Calderon scale means that you would be HALF as much willing to give them a big man/womanly bear hug as you would INIGO CALDERON!

Wilson 0 - don't want be catching what he's apparently got when you hug him :smile:

Calderon = 20,000 Calderons

Get out of that.

Bruno would be a 10, or as close as possible as it is to get, for me.

I'd rate Rosenior higher than that too. His intensity, despite only having been here for a short time, is quite something. That post-match badge clutching at Hillsborough was extraordinary.

Dale Stephens is a fantastic player, but I feel less connected to him than some of the others at the top end of your scale there. He may just be more introverted than some of the others, of course, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Silly old bat
Are we basing this on his playing ability, charity work, lecturing on psychology, or his community work? Do we know how much charity work the other players undertake?

Edit. If it's based on hugs then Zamora gets 50 Calderons and Stockdale 0.75
