So you disregard our form but then say Hull have one of the best defences in the league after 1 game basically completely smashing your argument into the ground.

He's had almost zero game time in pre-season, due to injury. Give the bloke a chance to get his sharpness back!
What?
I said that the fact we didnt score against one of the best defences in the league isn't too much to worry about. And the way we played last season, 3 MONTHS AGO really doesn't have much bearing on now. How do they contradict each other?

According to the commentator Barnes fell asleep
The problem we have is the same as the back end of last season. We do not have strikers who are clinical enough. Mind you nor do most of the teams in this division. I suspect Bloom will hold back on giving Poyet another 3 million to spend on a striker at this moment in time. We might have to make do with someone well below that sort of valuation.
The facts are we have a woefully inadequate strikeforce for this division, one of the weakest in the league, certainly totally useless for a promotion push and this has been found out already. Sure drag it out for another 10 games but it will still be completely inadequate then and a quarter of the season is gone and Poyet is ok, nothing special.

This - right I'm going to get ready for a night out in the north of England - chavtastic night with my sis in law and her mates
It's one game - Tuesday is another day!!!
How do you know it is one of the best defences in this league after 1 game played ?

Any idea of Charlie Austin's value? He'd do nicely and should be cheaper than that.
I think Cardiff have probably got the best defence in the Championship.
That was last season , the comment made to me.
If you're as short sighted to only consider one game, then yes it is. But it's pretty clear to anyone that a good performance, even in defeat, puts you in a better position in the next match to iron out those few errors and progress.
f***ing hell some people on here tonight are idiotic. ONE game does not decide our entire season
It's not one game. We have been awful all year, scored hardly any goals. For FFS smell the coffee. Will it hit you when we are bottom after 10 games, 20 or 30 games?

Definitely the best bus, anyway.

They have one of the best defences in the league? After 1 game.
Their four defenders are very good players, well drilled and used to playing with each other. (Yes I know they proved that last season - but my point is that form is temporary, class is permanent)We have a different core make up to our team and they need time to settle. We're clearly in the market for another striker, I really don't see why you're getting so worried about one game where we played pretty well. Change one or two things and we'll be absolutely fine.

Just on the way back now. We had a good game, we played really well and had chances to win. Wouldn't mind seeing the goal but from where we were it was a ball that should have been cut out. Only one game in, and we could have easily won it. Noone's booking looked a joke, atwell was a shocking ref today, and gave some terrible decisions.
Come off it, you're being pedantic. They had a brilliant defence for the whole of last season. You were making the point about us having a bad run of form towards the end of last season. Form doesn't count one bit now we're in a new season.
But theirs does ?
