mackie can 'cut it' in the prem, so just shut up to the people that think he can't. Just face it, he can.
You are correct IMO, but the problem is the people who talk the loudest on here were saying that Holt, Graham and Morrison would not cut it in the PL either and we done so well to get Bothroyd and DJ, but hey ho.................
He is an impact sub. He will never start ahead of Cisse and Zamora as those two are miles better than him. But he showed saturday he should not be discarded either.
I agree he should never start ahead of Cisse and Zamora, but based on the last game, which is all you can go on, should he start up front with Zamora v Fulham ahead of Taarabt ?, as people are now wising up that he is not a winger, but a striker.

Is a fair question. The answer will be whether Hughes goes for Ability and creativity ( Taarabt ) v's attitude and effort ( Mackie ). Both have bundles of one and very little of the other.
You actually are wrong. He can't cut it in the prem. To be able to say he can he would have to perform week in week out at a decent level which he hasn't done. He has looked well short of the level required and this is recognised by all around me that go to the games.
He made a big difference saturday coming on as sub. His fresh legs and attitude were the catalyst and he had a superb 20 minutes. BUT one 20 minute good spell does not suddenly make you a Premiership player. I have been to the 16 or so games he started this season and he was non existant and very poor in most if not all. If you have honestly been to all those games and think he played well and had a great game then one of us is going to Specsavers.

All true enough if you take into account he wasn't being played in his best position, until Saturday that is.

I'd play them both. It was Adel who brilliantly set up Jamie for his 2nd goal.
