    ........ and we think we've got defensive problems!

    Man. City ship five against Leicester, Utd. six against Spurs and Liverpool seven against Villa. These defences make ours look water tight. What is it about playing behind closed doors that is causing this? Is it a lack of intensity that is causing a lack of concentration or what? Yes, playing out from the back isn't helping matters but it's more than that. I don't understand it and I'm sure that there are coaches up and down the country who don't either. It's obviously not just us who are suffering from poor defensive play.

    Every team will have one weakness but we have problems all over the pitch including midfield and no recognized strikers!

    The difference is none of those teams mentioned will get relegated. Our problems by contrast are much deeper
