Why is Finnan suddenly not good enough?
Last summer he was being praised as our most consistent player after Carragher. He had several niggling injuries this season and didn't play as much, now all of a sudden his age is an issue and he's not good enough at getting forward.
In fact he's the most effective full back we have in the final third. His crosses right and left footed are very good. Defensively he's sound. His only problem as I see it is lack of pace/mobility meaning he can't get into the final third enough. But he lacked pace and athleticism when he was getting praised as our second most consistent player last summer, so imo that hasn't changed. For some reason peoples' opinions of him have.
