Honestly has Babel EVER had a run in the starting XI? I mean let's be fair, even N'Gog has had a fairer crack of the whip in his preferred position
90+ mins
Babel 7 goals in 22 apps
N'Gog 5 goals in 11 apps
60-89 mins
Babel 1 goal in 33 apps
N'Gog 7 goals in 18 apps
30-59 mins
Babel 2 goals in 12 apps
N'Gog 0 goals in 2 apps
Up to 30 mins
Babel 11 goals in 65 apps
N'Gog 3 goals in 30 apps
Half of Babel's goals have come in short cameo appearances, and while overall N'Gog has scored 15 goals in 61 apps (1 in 4) compared to Babel's 21 in 132 apps (1 in 6), Babel averages the same amount of time per appearance on the pitch as N'Gog but in a less favourable position to score. A goal every 286 mins isn't bad for someone playing wide a lot of the time nor playing more than 45 mins average. He's unlikely to be played in his favoured position while Torres is fit, and with N'Gog the preferred back-up so may as well go, but has he really been given a fair crack of the whip?
