HoolaGirl 0 Posted November 22, 2009 "The most telling thing though, and what no one has mentioned, is that Lambert obviously sees the game in the same way as me and hauled him off before he once again did one thing too much and set up a goal for the Saints."Do you not think that Lambert took him off to rest him for Tuesday?

ron obvious 1,499 Posted November 22, 2009 [quote user="Boot"]Another reason Wes didn''t have his best game yesterday was that he was targetted from the start by some very effective closing down by Saints. This freed up the rest of the midfield to play with more space which they didn''t exploit often enough. It is there that the fault lies. Wes is going to be player targetted by all opposition managers this season for special treatment and attention so he will have games like this where he doesn''t run the show for 90 mins. Why do all the other teams target him? Simply because he is, by some distance, our best and most creative player and the one that will win us the most games this season. Every other manager in the division knows this and so does every supporter that knows anything about football.[/quote]Well said. That''s why goals, assists etc. don''t tell the true value of a player''s contribution to his team''s success.As I''ve said elsewhere, for such a simple game, football don''t ''alf get complicated. Hence this message board. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
