There are many that dont subscribe to that, but sadly many more who have openly said they want to retain Barnes at the cost of selling CMS,... that my friend is madness.
Teams like Watford beat us because our central defence gets overwhelmed, so in effect cleared and tackled balls
from one player can in a lot of cases rebound to another attacking player giving another opportunity for a shot or killer pass,...... we dont have that, we ping a ball in CMS's...
But using that logic you should be saying the same about Barnes surely?.... or is he allowed to have only the odd decent game in a dozen, with barely a goal to his name.?
