Given the way the world runs these days with leaks etc, I reckon we'd have heard something more if this were true?

Plus, Randolph named Zoggy in that list of players who would have whisked us away from the drop zone had he not been injured.

If that means either it isn't true or that Lerner is so out of touch with what is happening at 'his' club that he thinks it is true, my money is on the latter

"N'Zogbia being injured, as well as the loss of Gareth Barry have really hit us hard."

Fucking Lambert is a twat to not allocate Charles a squad number. We really could do with him back - he single handledy saved Wigan from the drop previously. It sounds like bollocks from Lambert saying he's unfit to play. The club is run by amateurs and clowns!

and if he'd been advised by the club doctor that given the severity of the injury there was no chance of him playing any real part in the season, so why take up a squad allocation? He might very well be training again but if he's up to PL speed what would have been the point. I get the club have fucked up on many levels but not lets not just generalize everything.

It's hard not to assume the worst every time when their record of fuckwittery is so utterly staggering.

My default setting these days is not to believe anything that comes out of the mouths of Lerner, Lambert, Faulkner or Doogan.

They are all credibility voids, and they made it this way.

Really don't care about N'Zogbia, his heart isn't in the club, and has not showed me the sort of form since arriving which suggests he can make that much of a difference, not to mention that he's just another one burning a hole in the wage bill.

assuming the worst doesn't automatically make it the truth as much as it might be justified. Despite their fuckwittery as you put it, they could be telling the truth.

I've seen more of him in shades, pool-side than I have in a villa shirt. Champagne charlie indeed.

I know most of them are like it, but please can the club look at social networking sites before signing players. The real knobs stand out by a mile.

I don't think he's particularly good - a 1 in ten player at best.

N'Zogbia isn't great. I think he would have made a decent squad player in the days of O'Neill. His £50k per week wages would have fitted the mould.

He would make a credible option at the moment though. With Albrighton playing well, then him on the other flank or up the middle would make us a lot more dangerous than we currently are.

He isn't great, but he's a still a lot better than most of our team at the moment.

I've always been impressed with Albrighton, good work rate, decent final ball, and will get a few goals too.  Like most players his form is up and down, but with a lack of better options I think he should be in the team most weeks right now.
