I think we did miss Bale out there today Vis. The game needed something to set it alight that bit of magic which seemed missing to day.vis wrote:Did we really miss Bale today? OK we were a touch flat at times but it was the 1st game so excuses can be made and we seemed comfertable & in control for most of the game and took the 3 points . . . .
I thought it would take a few games for the new guys to settle in. There were a few individual performances but they didn't quite gel as a team ,hopefully that will come. We did make a very poor Palace defence look good at times, they will get hammered over the season by most teams.
Lennon does continue to dissapoint. He goes past defenders so well but then it's all wasted with his final pass. I'm surprised that the last few managers have not sorted him out by now. Even AVB has had him a year now.
Like everybody else I'll take the 3 points and it is our first win in the opening game for 5 years I'm told, but I hope we start scoring goals from open play soon.
We are going to be tired at the weekend after a long trip to Russia so the next match is going to be difficult.
