I hear you shelfie, and you're certainly one of the more balanced and rationale posters on here mate, believe me you are - and you know your onions.
But I just think we might be ok, it wouldn;t surprise me if we score more goals this season and our better off the ball - proving to be more effective overall without being as easy on the eye.
I agree we need that craft and intelligence to get the ball moving up field quickly, taking it off the CBs and using it well, recycling etc I still think Dembele can do this to a degree, I've watched a lot of him and his defensive work on top of that could make him a very important player for us this season - in a partnership with Sandro/Parker.
Ultimately Modric and VDV out in one full swoop is hard to get the head around, it really is. However I still think AVB could do well with this sqaud, we look more powerful looking that;s for sure - wouldn't surprise me at all if we score more direct sort of goals and excel on the road.
I'm with you Pinky, I would respond in greater detail but I need some sleep to rest my brain and F5 finger as I hear we have a game tomorrow or something?
I think we're going to spank Norwich tomorrow.
