It’s a culture shock to us because we’re so used to having possession for big chunks of games and now it’s different in the big boys league.

I also think if you watch it back Amdouni did an awful lot of covering for our midfield - I posted on another thread that sadly Berg is a yard and half off the pace and I’m not sure with the press and way we play will make it at this level.

Men and boys was used in a description before and I think quite apt really, I’d play Ekdal in front of the centre backs from Saturday but we should have bought THB.

Said on another thread the press is our issue as much as anything , personnel aren’t quick enough once opposition break it - it’s not all bad but if some on here think JBG is the answer we really are in trouble.

To be fair to VK we need to back him and give him a chance to build and gel the squad , some will go this week I think and then we’ll know where we stand.
agreed with all you said. My concerns are we need points on the board.. we aint getting anything against spurs. Before you know it we will have lost 4 in a row and these young lads confidence is shot. We cant afford to build as we go, we need points and especially points at home. Vinney needs to have another way, Dyche would have got a point against Villa at home. I am a Vinney fan, I really want us to play the way he envisions. But every game is hard Shef Utd is the easy game of the season, the ones who where unlucky against City and beat us 5:0... Notts Forrest should have beat Utd, Fulham should have beat Arsenal.. where are the points comming from?
