yeah I am one of those people just above your post.It bugs me when people point out Jenas as an example of a scapegoat. He was crap, we moved him on, and we improved the squad.
Do you think one player contributed to us losing 5-1 to Newcastle?
Do you think Dier was let down by Mason in central midfield or do you think Dier has been piss awful for a month and should leave too?
Do you think that Mason has come into a a team brimming full of confidence and let them down?
Did Mason play a full season last season as a midfield two and have a good season?
Is he coming back from injury and a very bit part role on the team?
Jury is out for me but the vitriol against a player is ridiculous. Football is a squad game, so not every player is a match winner but everyone wants to see someone come off the bench and change the game or to have a big influence - the simple fact is no team has that and you have players who are squad players, who come in and do a job.
