No. Younger players, a striker or three and like us, a decent if less experienced, manager. They were playing a top 4 side away today.
They're in the mix and if their confidence gets shot they could really struggle, their next couple of games will reveal a lot about their bottle...
I think they've just had a bad day. They are a work in progress. A young side coming together. What this does show us however is how useless Liverpool are, having been pissed all over by them at home last week. West Brom is a much more difficult game for us than Liverfool. A draw v W Brom and a win against Liverpool would give us 4 points although I think we may need all six!
Four points from those two games would be progress and keep us in touch, trouble is we've got Chelsea after those two and we need another backs to the wall display just to save our goal difference. Hopefully we'll have one or two reinforcements in time for the Chelsea game...
Being so young they're inconsistent. They're not necessarily "better" than us, they've just benefited from NOT having MH as a manager.
