No because he was injured for some of it and then Dorrans got injured

Naismith and Pritchard also played some games.

Fact remains he did not start our best attacking midfielder for 2 months and now Wes plays and shows what we have all been missing, rather than admit he made a mistake he's claiming credit for it and making out it was down to his management. I just find that pretty staggering and again its hypocrisy. Wes plays well = great management from Neil. We lose = "its the players."

It will be interesting to see who plays tomorrow if he wants to keep Wes fresh. Pritchard and Naismith would seem the obvious call.
