The football under Val isn't poor, it's just direct. The comparisons with Pulis are totally off. Pulis was direct but played a low defensive line and rigid defensive system which Val doesn't. The difference is this Albion side gets in faces and looks for goals from chaos and we will concede in that process.

This is a hard league and we won't breeze past anyone as Fulham proved today. This gaffer will get us going places and it will be exciting.
