agree with most of your points . Also failed to recognise a squad needs to be constantly refreshed . We had 3 years without bringing in anyone new, Perhaps it was felt players would step up from the academy but that just didn't happen . The continuing failure of that department brings into question the standard of coaching they receive there. Now it isn't so much a transition but a radical rebuild that is needed
what I expect is EVERY game EVERY player to give 100%,,, then win lose or draw I won't complain. In the last three games I havent seen this. we have been out fought by inferior teams ,,,I blame the players for this ...
good post ,,we need to show patience ..his first touch is poor because the pace of the game is much faster than he is used to .. even many experienced players need time to settle in the PL
