    Khazri has looked, for the most part, a shadow of the player he was last season. I like khazri - but he played no part in our only league win this season - people say Rodwell is the reason we are losing - same principle? I doubt it - I'm a firm believer that it is complete coincidence.

    He looked huge against Shrewsbury - there was less pot on me 3 years ago when I was 14 stone (am now 11 stone - only 5' 6" so 14 stone was a hell of a kite)

    He was also hopeless!!

    He's looked OK in a few games but was awful against Arsenal I thought and rightly dropped against Bournemouth (may have been injured but I was not up to speed with injuries before the game. Not sure using a Tunisia game as a yardstick is a good thing - they're a poor/average at best international side where he, even on a bad day, is one of their better players.

    My ten pence worth!!

    Agree 100% dansafcman.
    Does he need that guiding experienced partner alongside him. Looks it to me.
    I do believe given another season or two he will be the beast we saw last year but whether that's with us, and personally I don't think it will be, remains to be seen.

    Just for the record I don't think Rodwell was why we were losing, just potentially one of many contributing factors. He certainly wasn't bad enough to point at him and say "you are why we are losing".

    Yeah I know but some think that. There have been all sorts of contributing factors tbh. Hopefully we can win this weekend and get in touching distance.

    Just Googles Khazri for something else and there is one entry about Sam pulling him off at half time at Norwich and putting Watmore on because Khazri was not doing much of a job backtracking. Some impact Watmore made that day!
