Just realistic. Want to keep the pressure on Parky to sign at least one more defender.
Well what a great result, well done to the lads. Well done to Shelvey, two assists on opening day is excellent. What I can't work out is we have a really strong midfield and still they love to give up the initiative. We know the defense is going to be under pressure, it's up to the midfield to push up harry and not fall back on our defense. There is still a lack of leadership and nous there, and I'm not sure if Holland solves that.

Holland isn't the answer. I don't think we can really improve on that midfield, only in adding one maybe two alternatives as back up. More of a case of holding on to them. Give them games we'll improve as a team.

Plenty still to do but remember there are a few new boys in the side and they will take time to settle.
Who is Harry .... ?
Seriously, just got in without knowing the result. Great thread, and it was a cliffhanger reading the posts of the game's last few minutes !
Thanks for the updates guys!
