Why would I want to pick anyone else over Nolan when the team wins 3 nil ?

Nolan deserving his place has got fuck all to do with his leadership. That's a load of shit in my opinion. He deserves his place because he did his job so well the team were able to win 3 nil. End of.

Your problem is you can't understand what he did in the game. Its like too massive a concept for your brain, you're short circuiting.
