There definitely been improvements in what's been a very short time period. Jones seems to have done ok really and let's not forget the mess Bruce left the club in. Chelsea was always a defeat and really looking at things I don't think the away draws at Palace and Brighton look bad results. Howe gets a fully fit squad and 2 weeks to try and get us perhaps playing a little more on the front foot. Brentford really is a must win game.. There's been people saying games like Southampton home and Watford away were must must win, however for me that was too early.. This game really is the 1st game I think nufc simply has to win to give us a chance, but my god don't lose it.
First half was sit too deep, no pressure on the ball and survive. Very poor although Brighton created very little in truth. Second half same formation but defending much higher up allowing players to close them down at the back. We were the better team second half and should have won. Play like the second half all game and we would be ok.
This is getting a bit ****ing ridiculous, mind. He's at the game on Saturday, how is it nearly 3pm and Barca have announced Xavi quicker than we've managed it?
