what do you make of it so far Tim? I have to say I'm not a fan of the style yet am happy to throw my hat in the ring of 'swarm ball'. The pressing was impressive early on but the refining of Howard wilkinsons route 1 into route 0.75 leaves me thinking i may not be handing over money too often this season.
went to the arsenal cup game hoping to see a real good dust up. got caught in a traffic jam, missed the opening 15 mins. sat down and immediately arsenal scored. went to the vine after 70 mins. absolute shocker.

I wasn’t far behind you at the arsenal game. Went back to the vine at 80 but got in the car and headed home.
I thought we looked really good in the first 3 games but we’ve stalled since then. We’re not pressing as aggressively as those openers and we’re punting it up too much. All our good play comes from keeping it on the ground.
The main issue we have is that we can’t seem to score.
Games are much more exciting than under allardyce but we’re not getting back to the PL without a striker.

Another disappointing draw last night. Derby are properly shit... offered absolutely nothing in attack. Keeper was stalling for time inside the first quarter of the game.
Still - couldn't actually score so...
Fingers crossed the next home game (another 4 hr round trip on a weeknight) is actually worth it.
