Jesus christ with this Cook hasn't been given enough chances to prove himself crap. He has played 29 games for us now. He has had half a dozen games where he has started and played 80, he has played about half a dozen where he starts and shares the role, he has had at least half a dozen where he comes in the middle part of the game to take advantage of tired defences and he has had a few chances to just close out games.
He has had many chances in a variety of roles yet we still haven't found one that suits the team. How many more chances will he get to find a suitable role?
People saying he needs to come on earlier, he had like 5 games in a row as a starter, what is he supposed to start the game 10 minutes earlier than the other 33 players?
I know that people like him for some bizarre reason, but he has to have some use otherwise it's a wasted spot in the 17. I feel his selection each week is political, he is being forced into the team to placate the fans. And if that is what is happening then we are in big trouble
