Babel's contribution was perfunctory at best.
He got in the position to put a cross in with his left foot, but couldn't, again.
Winning a couple of corners and a free kick doesn't constitute a good performance. Any half-decent player with pace could manage that on the counter, bomb it down the wing, make an ineffective cross and hope the ball ricochets out. He showed nothing against the Manc's that we didn't already know. He's got a bit of flair and pace that can be effective at times, but needs to work harder, focus and improve his decision making. In terms of end product, he's not giving us much, and I would have hoped for more than what we're getting.

but in the end the ball still failed to reach those waiting inside the box...
so there is no point in dribbling or making any good runs without the final pass....
he needs to know his main functions.. as a supplier....
and if and only if he got a very good chance.. then only he should go for goal
