I hate feeling as though I am loosing confidence in the 'new era' but for me there is no way that we have gained anything out of the first four games.....the Turkish game being a waste of time of our own volition..
Chelsea and Utd have been looking good or improving and have invested their time well. I think the first two games were a comercial exercise ...Hull was an embarrasing game we were not ready for and the game in Turkey was clearly a shop window for some of the players we can't shift....

When are we going to actually start preparing for the season ahead???
If we waste the game on Monday...I reckon that we will turn up at Anfield against Sunderland and drop the first 2 points of the season...if i am correct, we are then off to the Emirates...chasing Utd and Chelsea from the start!!

Let's give ourselves a chance from the start....pick a decent side and let them get into it!!!
