Brooks get harsh criticism in my view

I get that in some recent games he hasn't taken his man on as much as we would like.

But if you watch the games carefully, in almost every single game, even when he's not totally on it, he produces two or three moments of genuine quality that either do lead to or should lead to goals.

Take last night and goals 1 and 3. The touch for the third was sublime and the first goal also came from him doing a bit of trickery then playing a fantastic ball out to Musaba. In fact he also set Musaba up for another that the keeper saved shortly after.
