That's football baby.
This isn't FM, you can't just replace players whenever you get bored of them. We don't have any better options on the bench right now and his positive affect on the game is too hard to replace with any of the alternatives anyways. If our forwards could score a few more goals we wouldn't even notice the mistakes our backline makes.
We have the equal 7th best defence in the league so far this season. We have the 10th best attack, and have scored half as many goals as the most potent. However we have the 8th most expected goals and 8th most touches in the opposition box.
We are creating chances, we are controlling games, we are even defending well enough to be close to the top 6. We just can't score goals. Natta getting dropped doesn't help that and if anything probably hurts it.
