[QUOTE="Jashay, post: 1009167, member: 78812"] Yeah, Faz hasn't looked too hot at 10 these last two games. I might be biased, though, as I'm a big fan of Ford. Could also just be a dip in form. Faz can be hard to judge because he's said to have so many intangible qualities. Things like his galvanising effect on the team, his willingness to give it his all, and so on. I'm always a little uncomfortable with stuff like that; if a player is pulling his weight and adding those characteristics, awesome. But you can end up in a situation where the intangibles are used to justify selection when the tangibles just aren't there... [I]cough AWJ cough.[/I] I don't think that's where we are with Faz, but I'm finding myself watching him a lot more sceptically than I used to. [/QUOTE]
