The way that the way some pundits and fans look at football and at our club in particular.

Why does it have to be that with a new manager our team will suddenly lose their ability to defend.

It's like we give players a free pass not to do the basics and forget about working back and closing down the space.

I want us to set up a bit further forward,use the width of the pitch and to be more inventive and I don't expect to see Chadli strolling around after trying to beat ten men on his own.

If Barcelona and Bayern Munich can attack and then win the ball back when they lose it then there's no reason we can't make the effort to do so.....total effort should be the minimum and not something that should require a Pulis type to explain it to players.

So GET YOUR A R S E S IN GEAR Albion and don't think that champagne football means shrugging your shoulders when we lose the ball under Pardew.
