I think you're making a very good point there! I myself have been frustrated slightly with the way that we seem to almost not want to attack, and that we have two strikers on the bench that I find to be more capable than the one Rafa is playing. I don't see the point in not giving other players a chance, and it's strange because Rafa is known for rotation within the starting eleven. I'm delighted he seems to have sorted out the defence, but it seems to me that we could play less defensively and try to attack a bit more in certain games, like the one against Burnley.

But these are little things. Overall I'm very happy with our start in our first season back up, where staying up has always been the main goal. Anything more is just a bonus to me. Rafael is doing a great job, and we look very hard to beat at the moment. And unlike others I've heard, I'm not going to stop watching us play or anything like that, though I'll admit the matches do get a bit boring at times with our current defensive tactics.
