Daft things was I said to my mate at the end of the first half that, conceding the goal aside, that looked a pretty fluid attacking display.If we could buy confidence I'd make it our record signing as that's the missing ingredient but, when you are getting beaten every single week its not going to come any time soon.

Agree completely. The margins are so fine but if confidence is shot the tension and hesitancy in the team transmits itself to the stands and back again, particularly when the oppostion have the ball around our area.It does feel we are too open for our position in the league. We were pretty good to watch in the first half but I would rather we got back to basics and aimed for clean sheets as a base to work from. It's possible Garde doesn't think we have the players to do that.

It's possible Garde doesn't think we have the players to do that.The problem with that is that we certainly don't have the players to play the game/tactics we're currently trying.We definitely have to go back to basics. You won't win many if you're conceding three at home to teams like Watford. Play on the break with Kozak in the middle of Ayew and Traore.
One of our regular posters who watches the rezzies says he looks unfit and out of his depth there, if he's not putting in the desired effort in training either then he's not going to make the squad. I can t say I've even been impressed by him.
