Are The First Cracks Starting To Appear?

[Strawberry Avenger]

Are the first cracks starting to appear since the new owners took over or is it just my imagination?

I think "the cracks" were always there, but a lot of fans just repeated the Fawaz beginning with delusions of perfection. I'm in no way comparing EM to Fawaz, they are 2 different people, but they are people, imperfect humans, who like the rest of us, get something's right, & other times make mistakes.

IMHO we need to get over this deification of owners (& managers) & start being more sensible, praising when praise is earned & due, but alert & watchful at other times.

So far with the new regime there have been mistakes & there will be other mistakes in the future, but on balance they appear to be learning & getting more right than wrong, however vigilance should be eternal.

I agree with you NG3. anytime there is a new signing they are messi . Nobody can say anything negative either though it may be true.

clough got subbed at half time yesterday for the u23s. Anonymous. 3 mill poorly invested .

I can see what people are getting when they are critical of Aitor.

However, I can see with signings and the performance vs WBA he's out to prove his critics wrong.

Signings.  Ten in January.  13 this Summer.  Astonishing business by the club.

However, some will work out, some won't.  Some will hit the ground running and some won't.

Injuries, fitness and loss of form play their part as well as adapting to a new team or squad and a new manager.  Who'd have thought Dawson would be benched so soon?  Or Os' would still be lb after signing jack?

We can only go on what we see match to match.  After ten matches or half a season we'll have a clearer picture of how the season is shaping up.
