But you can't blame one player for that

While it's true we haven't won since he came back into the team - but look at the performances of the other players? Hughes can never be a playmaker for us. We rely on huckerby, who doesn't defend, and Safri, and McVeigh when selected. If those three are not on the pitch, or not performing, we struggle.

Worthington's biggest failure has been his inability to balance the team and get another creative player wide right to alleviate the pressure on Huckerby and McVeigh (who have been incosistent this season), and the fitness of Safri.
