In fairness few of our players cover themselves in glory for decision making in the final third. Malouda's only plus side is that he keeps the ball well and when he wants to he sees a cross or pass infinitely quicker than SWP and Kalou.
Under Jose he might have been a star, under Grant we've gone backwards in the sense that our forwards are isolated more until we need to score goals and one-on-one Malouda isn't going to do an awful lot of damage.
