I'm sick of all the pessimists writing us off after 1 poor performance so here's some positives we can take from today's game.
Reason's why we should not be so worried:
1. Rafa now has the squad he will be using for at least the next 4 months so he is just trying things out.
2. Kewell, Nunez and Cisse were not starting so we had a slightly depleted first team.
3. The Spannish players were all good. Luis Garcia and Josemi were my Man of the match.
4. Dudek had a hand in each of the 3 league goals we've conceded and will be dropped when kirkland is back.
5. The passing was not that bad. We played some good crossfield balls at times.
6. Our defence was good even when Traore came on. Risse, Josemi and, especially Carra were solid in defence.
So don't worry everyone, it's only the 3rd day of the season. there's a long way to go!
Walk on...
