Can't agree with you Soulman. Brunt offers us quality on set pieces and crosses, which is why we struggle so desperately for goals when he is not in the team.

Livermore offers us almost nothing in an attacking sense. If you watch him closely, you'll find almost everyone of his passes goes sideways or backwards. There's no problem in doing that if you're breaking up play, but I find Yacob is our best midfielder for that. So I don't think Livermore deserves his place in the team and he should be dropped.

The only time I ever thought Brunt was deservedly getting a bit of stick was when he first joined us and he wasn't pulling his weight. If you watch him now he is one of our hardest working players and also the one most likely to create something. The stick he has got in the last couple of years is completely unjustified in my opinion. Unfortunately I don't think people realise this until he isn't playing.
