Agree with some of it.Bit harsh making N'Zogbia a scapegoat. Whilst he hasn't had the best of seasons and it doesn't always come off for him, I think he usually tries to look to make things happen in an attacking sense, something the rest of the team does not.

No mention of the fact that McCleish is clearly not up to the task. Doesn't he pick the players? Doesn't he appoint the coaches to work with the team on the training ground? Does he not decide the team formation and tactics? Is he not responsible for putting the fire in the belly of the players?Sorry Sir Graham, heard it all from a hundred other pundits already.That said, would you be interested in a five match contract?

Unfortunately, looking at the replacements, N'Zogbia has been almost a disaster, a major disappointment. He just hasn't produced at all."He could say that about any player, but he singled out N'Zogbia, which, in my opinion, is a bit harsh.
