Good article Dan but think it's a bit unfair and misses some
salient points. Firstly, attack, attack, attack is going to get us hammered more often than it works. It may work in the Championship but not in the Prem. Secondly Watford are a very different set of players to last season compared with us. They spent/loaned big and it appears to be paying off. We are practically making use of our Championship squad. Lastly, I don't think defensively-minded equates to hoof ball and much of Saturday was probably due to the conditions. We were defensively minded at home to Swansea but we didn't play hoof ball. Really think we need to give AN a break. It was a bad result but given the lack of investment what he's done so far is okay by me. What he needs is backing in January then we'll ultimately see where he's taking us.
