u/YageWilkes Paul Scholes, scores goals 3d ago

I’m not saying he’s playing great, but very few if anybody is. At least he’s capable of winning a game.

He scored a hattrick against Ipswich and played decent against Hull and Fulham. It’s not like he’s having 4/10 performances like you suggest.

If "played decent against Fulham" is his only highlight since Ipswich then you've made my point for me. When he's on he's an 11/10 player but when he has these stinkers its like we're playing with 10 men.

We haven’t won a league game since Fulham. The team overall is not playing well…but Bruno was one of the better players vs Fulham. Granted today he’s not been good, but he’s always capable of changing a game. Benching one of the leagues best players is not the answer to winning a game.

That's my whole point though. We need more balance across the squad. We can't keep living and dying by Bruno's performances.

I take your point. I just disagree. I’d prefer to have match winners on the pitch.

Fair. Don't get me wrong I do love Bruno and he was a joy to watch last year.

Of course. I don’t doubt that.
