hes hardly going to go 'oh no boss, im not good enough to play today, let kits or riccy take my place', hes going to want to play in the Premier League
I think most of the 'fook off' comments are a knee jerk reaction to another bad frustrating performance, but the fans of any football club, as fickle as we can be, have the right to question a managers tactics if they are plainly not working (thats for you Potters 22).
We do have a good squad, and we can stay up but Tony is the manager. He gets paid to choose the team,and the tactics, and its his decisions that make or break us, so ultimately he should be held accountable. If the tactics are wrong, and we're not using the strongest team, then it stands to reason we're not going to win. Loyalty is brilliant, but blind unquestioning loyalty is just daft, because theres no accountability.

I don't think he should be starting but you're mostly right there

You are absolutely correct, the manager is making big mistakes...which i fear are going to prove very costly
and Cresswell is the biggest of those imo.
Naturally the fans are very frustrated when they something that is blindingly obvious.

its Pulis's choice and ric was supposed to be an impact player, simples. Were playing against spurs (modric, pavylechenko, defoe, bentley, cudocini, etc) What did you expect you cant just blame cressie, he worked ard  |

Its not his fault he gets picked. He goes on and plays as well as he can, however limited. The fault lies with the manager

The manager picks him the manager has to face that consequence. |

Cresswell wasn't at fault for any of their goals or am I missing something?

I can understand the frustration with Cresswell - he is not up to it. However his ineptitude only stops us scoring goals. Wilko has been just as bad in his games. If you are being fair then mention him as well. The difference is that his mistakes are costing us goals and games.
In my humble opinion, it is not fair to pick on any individual players if they have played as well as their ability allows. If they are not good enough, they shouldn't play at all.

I do agree, he is a top notch championship player at best...
But every game he gives 110%.

Cresswell could be TP's Achilles heel.

It's the manager who picks them and the manager who plays them, ergo? |

If Cresswell was anything like a team player he'd fake an injury and make himself unpickable as opposed to at the moment whereby as long as he's got legs and a pulse and those suspect piccies of tone he's undroppable!!!!
It's totally his fault for being so selfish!!! ;D
