Who is the happy clapper name aimed at then Beefy? Are we not entitled to our opinion without being classed as a happy clapper? If not then what is the point of us posting on this site? I also think you'll find that we have been critical of Irvine just as much as you guys have, it's just that we guys don't want him gone because we can see some positives.
Berahino and Ideye are similar players so they can't play together. Irvine chose Anichebe for his brute strength against Chester and Dawson which worked because he gave them a tough time and won us our penalty. Him not being full fit is unfortunate but he did his job and then came off for Berahino with fresh legs.
Varela has not been able to start matches because he has been lacking match fitness which is obvious given that he hasn't played proper competitive football since the World Cup. Now that he has had 65 minutes of game time in the past 2 matches, he is well on his way to becoming match fit. Morrison has been in the team most of the season so it is easier for him to come back in after 2 weeks because he won't have to build up his match fitness again or at least nowhere near as much as Varela will have to.
As for Dorrans, I think he has been fine this season. He hasn't set the world on fire but he has been decent. Of course he wouldn't be in most people's best 11's and probably not even mine but he has been a good option whilst we wait for Varela and Blanco to get fit and ready to play again.
