[QUOTE="donmcdazzle, post: 690418, member: 44093"] You are cherry picking because you've picked one period where he played limited minutes off the bench, half the time at fullback. Over 3 seasons at first five, he hasn't really improved defensively and was lower than Cruden every year. Perenara's defence over those 3 seasons by the way: 2012 79%, 2013 80%, 2014 79%. Not sure at which point there he was struggling and it seems a bit off base to blame him for Barrett's defensive weakness. And the fact that you think starting Stephen Donald in a World Cup final would have been the best option for us shows your bias! Man the stories you tell about that game get more fanciful with every telling. Also, if Tom Taylor was the starting 10 then I think we would battle to even make the WC final. [/QUOTE]
