It's true that it's early... Suarez, Bellamy, Agger did not play... Lucas played sparingly... it's a road game vs. an in-form side...etc. Despite all these factors & forgetting the score sheet, we're not playing well enough to yield confidence that this team can finish in top 4. Once Suarez & Bellamy return & the inevitable Carroll/Dempsey transfers are made, we should be much better up front & capable of top 4 caliber play. With Lucas' eventual return to full fitness & work time for Agger/Skrtel/Lucas to coordinate, we should be acceptable at the back (knock wood...there have been concerns here). However, we have glaring weaknesses in talent in central & attacking midfield as well as problems at left back that don't look like they will be solved. Absent changes/improvements, we will have difficulty keeping possession & creating chances... pushing our ambitions out of reach.<br /><br />Still early...but that's the way it looks.Stephennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33779660.post-78036983550348651622012-08-03T06:13:24.951-04:002012-08-03T06:13:24.951-04:00A world class strike from Downing.
