Friedel has kept us from losing in both of our last games, would you bench him for someone who has been with the club for no more than two weeks, and will only have trained with the team for a few days? A lot has been made of this by the media, lots of complaints that Lloris should have played against West Brom, he wasn't even eligible.
As for Defoe, yes definitely not weak if you don't make space for your advanced midfielders to run into, and don't bother to look up when your team mate has made a good run in the box. His greed angers me so. Gallas got bullied by Holt and Lukaku.
