I know this has probably been done to death but....

I just don't get how our central midfield positions have been allowed to be so weak for so long.

Once Lambert went and fix was bombed out we've never recovered. Band I know fox didn't look a worldbeater since but.....

Johnson is very weak. Howson plays well 1 in 10. O'Neil looks good but rarely picked. Tettey is a good stopper but only plays half games and can't pass. Darth Vader the ultimate sick note.

Its what relegated us. Not the strikers. Yet we signed masses of defenders in summer and only darth Vader in midfield.

Still relying basically on Johnson and howson who IMHO aren't good enough.....

Things won't improve until that does.

    - he has done well, but his passing is still desperate at times (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Jan 25, 12:54:20
  - he can't pass, his shooting is schizo, but he's a grafter (n/m) (NCFC) - MIKEWALKER, Jan 25, 12:48:32
