What worries me is the players body language. You often hear about managers ” losing the dressing room” ie the spoilt buggers dont want to play for Bob. The way Scott Parker,back after a chest infection plus played all the game, out paced Ben Watson for the third goal. The desire to get there was with Parker, hes hardly renowned for his pace.
Ben Watson would want to prove his worth, and win a starting place in the team. If Parker is beating him to the ball, I’m sure it’s simply a case of Scott Parker being quicker than Ben Watson, nothing more.
