By the way I gave McCormack a 3 , said he was shite, not a team player and I think he's a real problem for any manager. I gave Morrison a 5 , said he played well outside the box but nowt inside it so I'm just telling it as I see it - it's not just Becchio who gets the flak.
The problem with Becchio was that he couldn't do the basics and in my opinion is pinching a living, especially in the premiership.
