Vaz Te is has been out best wide player for scoring and creating goals when he was playing consistently. I think you need to cut the bloke a bit of slack because at least he was in the right positions, Cole can't even do that right. He's also been out for best part of a year and any player takes time to get back into the rhythm again.

Players that aren't good enough any longer - Cole, Nolan and Noble would be the three I take out and put Poyet, Zarate and any other big lump bar Cole up top. I'm sure if Zarate was told to play in the Nolan role he would be playing far more off him than Nolan does. I've always been a staunch supporter of Nolan but yesterday everyone around me was wondering why we hadn't heard Nolan's name mentioned for 20 minutes, it was quite evident why ....

O Brien cam off injured, hobbling as he came off but if BFS was going to persevere with a back four Demel made sense given he's far better going forward than O'Brien. I also don't believe BFS had to change the system, bringing on someone more mobile than Nolan with the two full backs pouching on would have created more than enough chances over and above those we made to have won that game, had we had a decent front 2 that is .... if BFS persists with Cole we'll be bottom three for a while.
