Sure we always knew it was going to be tough but the truth is in 4 games .........
(1) No team has totallly outplayed us. We have actually dominated decent periods of each game we have played.
None of our players look totally outclassed in my opinion.
(2) We have been mercilessly punished for virtually every single mistake we have made. I dont think that continues plus hopefully we can learn a thing or two and cut out a few of the mistakes.
(3) Its obvious that our start has been unlucky on a number of fronts. We are not getting any of the big decisions and getting a ton of soft decisions against us.
This capped with the fact we have been unlucky with both injuries and suspensions has not helped.
Relistically I have watched a lot of PL games this season and we look better than at least 4-5 teams in my opinion.
I was actually a bit worried that we would get totally destroyed this season but that clearly isnt happening.
We have played teams who have almost all established premier League players and held our own.
We may need more time to find our feet but I think things will turn around.
I do agree with one of The CC callers who suggested that possibly PL doesnt know his best side yet in the PL.
We have chopped and changed a number of systems with varying degrees of success.
If we have any weak areas I have every confidence that Paul Lambert will address them in the Jan transfer window.
