People are quicker to jump on a player when they've played at the top of the game and are on a good salary (in all likelihood) We had a certain player who left us to go to Mexico who earned a very good salary, played at the highest level, But didn't show up for us for whatever reason. If he had been English with no connection to the club and country, that player would have been kicked all over the dance floor. I sort of understand it, although i don't think it's fair.
You are right, it is not fair. I have recently joined the ranks of those that knock individuals - chambers and Bagan in particular - I should know better.
I think it is mainly down to a general feeling of frustration with the management of the club that has built up, and continues to build. That shouldn't be directed at individual players, especially the youngsters.
