The midfield two created sooooo little today. I know Mass is back next week, which is good, but Chair, in his little cameo, offered so much more offensively than either Manning or Scowen. Really need get cooking again. Chair offers something. Let's play him.

I'm glad MacLaren made some changes yesterday. Oteh didn't have a good game, but we were woefully ineffective in midfield again. No real chances were created for him.
I do think Manning and Scowen was a slight improvement from Scowen and Cousins. But all 3 are too workmanlike and do similar jobs. We need a footballer in their next to them.
I'm guessing Mas will be back next week and will slot straight in. But next time he's unavailable, MacLaren needs to be smarter about who he selects in the middle.
And yes, I'd like to see Chair get more game time. Looks lively and creative each time he gets a cameo. Shame we never see him before the 85 minute mark.

Chair is brilliant, he really needs a chance
Oteh too needs a little more game time to shineUnder Les Ferdinand:
Luke Freeman, top assists in the league: 4million
Alex Smithies, great goalie for this club: 3,5million
Charlie Austin, 19 Premier League goals: 4million
Jack Robinson: Contract ran out, left for free
And many more mistakes
LES FERDINAND, IT'S TIME TO GO

This more or less what I said on another thread , your on it saying scowens cousins and Manning are all workmen , scowens being the best workman and workmen are there to complement a more creative partner imo chair should be in the managers thoughts for game time seeing as the work men collectively have been given a a fair run , and there's no guarantee what sort of form Luongo is going to be in after more or less sitting on the bench for a month

Think yesterdsy showed why likes of Manning and Oteh etc benefit from a loan as they had bright start then kind of got swallowed up and bullied more the game went on. If they do season playing week in week out against lumps like Portsmouth, who were a poor physical side, it would do them and us the world of good.
Some players, although young, are just that bit more advanced and ready to step up like Eze and potentially chair

I don't disagree with the OP, it's funny though, last week many were calling for Manning to be our saviour in that role, he got his chance yesterday and from what I saw and what has been reported he didn't cover himself in glory! I think we had a very good pairing in Luongo/Cameron, they could do the defensive hard work and had enough creativity to play out of the midfield!@gatorTFC
