It's a comment I made last night.
The game we are now playing, the pass-move-pass-move requires top drawer close control and passing, along with movement. The likes of Milner, Kolorov,Navas, Rodwell, Dzeko and Lescott simply haven't got that ability at the level our top stars have, so our game drops right off when more than one or two are in the eleven. It was crystal clear last night and also against Newcastle.
A bad run of injuries/suspensions, which always seems to kick in at the turn of the year, could affect us a lot.
