    Best Lazy - Bit harsh perhaps, but his off the ball movement is terrible. Always surprised how little our fans appreciate the value of movement.
    Obertan - I thought he started ok, does have genuine pace and does take on his man (maybe there were two different games lol) but he did fade and become less effective
    Lucky or Grind - Agree with the majority, a bit of both, but we need to improve a lot to keep picking up points, I dont think we've played well once this season!

    He rarely took on his man (no confidence?), and rarely chases back (lazy), hell I saw him just stand a few feet from Barton without even trying to mark/ tackle him (he just kept walking up the pitch)!
    He did run around a lot and get the ball but with almost nothing coming of it.

    As everyone has pointed out it's our FWDS who are the problem they're all to much a like
    think people forget we've got new players as well many who haven't even played in this league once they settle in,tiote gets back to form,ben arfa returns and for the love of god buy 2 fwds in jan pleaseeeeeee we'll prove we're a top ten team (not deluded but look around outside the top six there is no one we should fear even with this team)
