It worked fine when we had Tettey, Fer and Howson

well, more fine. The obvious way to try to replicate that with Howson injured would to either play Tettey, BJ with Fer advanced, or two from Tettey/BJ/Fer with Wes advanced.

But he has rarely tried that.

I think there's pressure to play his ?8.5m record signing, but he can't drop Hooper because he seems to be actually capable of scoring (until recently).

I'd just love to know the thought process.

People who say, like Hoot and McNally, that we must be attacking because we play 442 are just f**king idiots.
