rube, I don't hate Lennon, I just question, like so many do with Walcott, his quality and the intangibles he brings. He can run teams ragged but he is often let down by his final ball and has probably less finishing abilities than the much-maligned Emile Heskey.
I don't know what the answer is. Unfortunately none of Lennon, SWP or Walcott did anything to stamp their authority on that right side of midfield. Right now, he is probably the best option on that side, even though I think he would ideally be suited to a second half Jermain Defoe-style super-sub. But like diane said, if there were 2 up front that could actually score, Lennon's inability to score would be minimized.
