His performance today was truly awful, disappeared in a big game yet again. I've tried to give him the benefit of the doubt by thinking he's finally through a patch of poor form after an encouraging pair of games. Summed up when he was telling Walker to pass back to our keeper from 10 metres inside the Utd half with only Shaw for him to take on. The team looked so much more balanced when Torres came on, who did more in his first ten minutes than FFS did in 65.
To be fair Raheem was equally poor today - I don't know why we've gone from having two of the most feared wide men in football to a pair, who today in particular, looked frightened to do anything. Sadly I am back to believing we will never amount to much whilst he's a first choice. It's also not good seeing his teammates throwing hands in the air when he doesn't release the ball quickly. I really hope Ferran and Phil get some meaningful minutes in the PL otherwise we will be out of the race by January.
