That’s simply not true
After our first 9 games last season the stats were thus:
W2
D3
L4
Pts: 9
This season it’s
W4
D3
L2
Pts: 15
I’m the first to say it’s not as good as some of us hoped for but it’s an improvement however you look at it, and that’s not mentioning the Carling Cup debacle at the hands of the all-conquering Northampton Town
I also agree that Kenny’s signings have much to be desired. He seems to be stuck in an early 90s mindset that so long as you sign a handful of half-decent British players you’re guaranteed to do well – as it proved at Blackburn – more than 15 years ago it has to be said
To be fair, these signings – Henderson, Downing and Carroll in particular - have all the hallmarks of Comoli – a man with a reputation for spending sh*t loads of cash on very average players
Hopefully these three will improve once the team gels better, Coates will get better with experience and Enrique, Bellamy and especially Suarez will maintain their current good form
