Totally agree V, I am fully behind AVB confident we will end in a CL spot this season, we haven't gelled yet and are no where near firing on all cylinders !
Metal, We have just played our 11th PL game + all the other competition games. Just how many games do you think the Team need in order to Gel and fire on all cylinders (as you put it), maybe AVB needs to change the formation and his game plan, because it is clearly not working, 11 games, 9 goals isn't good enough, W 6 D2 L3(& 2 of those losses @ home) this maybe better than at this stage last season, but there is ONE difference, last season we had Gareth Bale, this season we don't, yes we have made some big signings on the back of his transfer, but at this stage they aren't working are they, is this because AVB isn't playing the right combination? Also you have to consider the teams that are above us at the moment who have obviously made huge improvement, + there are only 2 teams who have scored less goals than us(and they are 19th and 20th)
I am not calling for AVB to be sacked, but surely questions have to be asked.
I agree we did not deserve to lose yesterday, the goal that we conceded was caused by Paulinho making a half-hearted tackle and losing the ball, which IMO was piss poor, my 9 yr old grand-daughter would have made a better effort, and, yes we did create some chances and Krul made some fantastic saves(that is what he is paid to do).Did Defoe touch the ball when he came on? I don't think he did. If AVB is going to start playing with 2 Strikers, IMO he must either play Ade or Lamela just behind Soldado. As I said it is only my opinion.
