Well written that.
Can't disagree. We are becoming a laughing stock where
opposition teams don't need to try that hard and still beat us.
The results are generally respectable but we are many levels below PL standard as though we're a league 1 or league 2 team playing a PL club in the cup.
We were an upper Championship team last year so why aren't we playing like one.
I had a theory last season that even one of the best squads and most expensively assembled squads we regularly struggled to convince last season.
In many games we were a similar standard to the opposition but we have the magic of N'Duaye to bail us out.
Fans who say the manager makes no difference are totally wrong.
Remember when we appointed Howard Kendall, almost overnight we turned into a short passing team where every player looked comfortable on the ball.
When we appointed Wilder again almost immediately we looked well drilled as though passing drills/ routines had been practised in training.
We also started showing more desire and confidence.
