I will point to the fact that we have picked up points despite not playing to what we are capable of. We have lost a centre back who we all thought would improve us in Okore and still improved. We now have the challenge, hopefully for not too long in maintaining our resolve without Vlaar which might be a bigger task. What we all know is that Lowton, Westwood and Benteke, three players that excelled way above expectations last season have been way, way below par this time around. However, I cannot believe that it will last forever and eventually something will change and they will come together. I still maintain that Lambert wants to play the type of football he is always advocating but right now is settling for less of that to ensure we improve defensively.
