Shaun does not have the magic he used to have in his first stint here. before he would get the ball and the entire place would lift, now nothing changes. he will beat one or maybe 2 players and that's it, the QUALITY of football he is producing is poor but his effort as always is huge, yesterday i lost count of the times he never made it past the players he was trying to beat and when he did the cross was poor. I am not singling him out by the way, (its a thread about him!) and it isn't his fault we didn't win yesterday, but he is partly to blame. (I hope i covered all angles so i don't get blasted by a load of unwarranted out of context shite)

I actually think the quality of his football is similar, just the players around him have changed. During his first stint he was by far one of the better players we had so he would lift the crowd when he got the ball. Now not only he can produce a bit of magic, but Bellamy, Petrov, Robinho, Ireland, Adebayor can all do something spectacular.

We are comparing him to players who are better quality than the first time he was here so he obviously looks worse, he's not worse he is still class. We just have others who are also class.

Spot on with what you said there.
Cant see why people have lost faith in him.
I think he has been playing well this year.
