Hardly any other club in the division approaches it all as cautiously as we do

Sit on the money, sit on the money, and hope there aren't 3 sides good enough to take it from us? The lack of any sort of pro-activeness is what gets me.

Sunderland made a change. Palace made a change. Cardiff made a change. Fulham made a change. West Brom made a change. Even Stoke parted company with Pulis, their most successful manager in generations, at the end of last season: his football had become intolerable even for their fans to stomach any longer.

I think we are the most cautious, conservative club in the whole league, on and off the pitch. We're basically behaving like complete non-entities, which is why the media view us as such.
