I return unapologetically to my point about time. Football is not standing still, it is changing and developing almost as you look at it. Look at the Premiership with teams like Bournemouth, Swansea, Watford and Burnley, then look at the Championship with Us and Newcastle and Leeds and Wolves and Forest all living on past glory in the the football world that time forgot. The Championship that McLeish and Bruce allegedly could cut a swathe through is now full of teams like Brentford and Brighton and Barnsley. Well drilled, well disciplined, fully fit, ambitious, obedient, team players with managers who do tactics and think about the game.When Leicester won the title last year, watching them was like taking the back off a Swiss watch and watching the movement. Every part with a job to do and doing it. That is where contemporary football is, not Alan Hutton running through brick walls to cross the ball into the Holte Lower.I do not want Bruce gone, yet, but I reserve the right to look at him and see yesterday's man, a football dinosaur seemingly unwilling or unable to change.
One thing that does concern me a bit is that before the transfer window we had 6 strikers. We now have 3, Kodjia, Hogan and a past it Gabby. I thought Kodjia was excellent the other night. God help us if he was to get injured.
but when do you draw the line? Recent form is a clusterfuck - incidentally, how does he compare to Lambert for his worst sequence of results?

Also, isn't Davis a forward?
