Does anyone else get why he is started now? It was all good and well earlier in the season when we actually kept the ball. But now we have gradually become a counter-attacking long-ball team, he offers absolutely nothing. Doesn't help the defence and doesn't offer any offensive threat.

He put a great cross in for the goal, didn't notice too much else to be honest.
I suspect that PL is hoping that Sylla and Delph can provide the steel that protects Westwood and gives him more passing licence.Hope is a diffuclt word, though, given that Cilla is a total unknown and Westie is still learnig his EPL trade.
