    At the end of the day we don't have much choice. We have no creativity on the deck now.

    If we don't have much choice, can I say to choose to let Saylor, Santon/ Colo pass the ball instead of Willo and Krul?

    All very interesting and indeed depressing. I try to remain optimistic, but its difficult.

    Seems he's going down a bit in quite a few peoples estimation.

    Let's hope he can turn things around and win the fans back, we don't want to be a divided club.

    Stats mean very little to me and can be dressed up any number of ways to fit a certain perspective. Its all very subjective. My own eyes are telling me we are playing too many long balls, but my own eyes are also telling its mainly due to a lack of confidence and certain players getting into a panic. Sometimes because because they don't trust those in front of them but mainly because they are suffering from a fear factor of messing up.
