One of the main concerns last season from fans was the "Entertainment factor" of our games

i.e. our football wasn't very entertaining

Trust me, I know a lot of you think I'd sit through a Stoke and cheer my head off but the entertainment concern was a valid one. The person typing this is a veteran of the Norwich vs Newcastle game at Carrow road last season, surely a contender for the worst premier league game in history?

Anyway, I could see the merit in staying up/the football served a purpose etc and I don't want to get into that

What I would ask is if those who had big concerns over "entertainment" last year, are you entertained by the new team?

My answer, yes! Granted I didn't see Hull and I am blacking that out as a no-show but Everton we played very well, Bury was a good game showing our depth is a lot higher in quality and Southampton we proved we can really impose ourselves on a game.

The added possession, more control in midfield and, basically, Nathan Goddam Redmond, have all contributed to a higher entertainment value (and we are passing it out from the back, shock horror!)

So in the words of Gladiator "are you not entertained" and what would you like to see more of/less of to increase you entertainment value purely?
 
The two homes games have been enjoyable (can't talk about Bury as I did not see it), but then many of our homes games last season were okay too, until January.

The Hull game, except the first 10 minutes or so, did have a certain familiar feel about it and although we dominated the second half, there was little threat other than the header from RVW, and the penetration was lacking, although I will credit the Hull defence for standing firm and making it bloody hard to break them down.
 
I'll vouch for the Bury game, very entertaining, although to be fair, I doubt anyone has seen a boring 9-goal game.
