Technically a bit early, I know, but this is a special occasion, after all.

After the league cup we had a good win at Newcastle and we all thought we would push on from there.
Unfortunately the season fizzled out to a slightly disappointing end with poor performances (understandably). Our focus during the last few weeks of the season turned to preparation for this season.
Our main objective in addition to finishing the season with a few decent performances/results was to sign amongst a few other positions:
A quality striker or 2 - the reason being Michu's best position is clearly behind the striker (at the time it was Moore, Lita or Schecter).
We bought Bony and were quite excited- reminded me of a Jason Scotland which was worrying but then thought 'if he gets the goals and holds the ball up. Perfect'
Scotland was very frustrating but scored for fun. I didn't realise Bony has scored 7 in 11 starts. Pretty impressive. Although - like Scotland- there is something missing.
The jury is still out but there is one thing that is guaranteed and that is for £14mill he will be given all the time to improve.
Shelvey- well, what can I say. When we announced the signing there was mixed reviews. After the malmo game we thought we might just have a great signing. Personally, I would enquire whether we can swap him with Joey Allen 😜
I just thought that ML approached this game differently, which was reflected on his set-up.
I suppose what I am trying to say is, tonight has brought the worries and concerns to a head, which is that :
we are better with a striker in front of Michu - do we have a good enough one?
We are better when Shelvey is not in the side as we can build our play like we used to.
Are the signings we made during the summer adding to out squad-
Amat - rash at times but settling in well
Canas - will do a job for us when needed
Vasquez - not good enough - for now
Pozuelo - adds something to our squad but not effective in situations like tonight where he may try too hard.
Bony - as I said jury still out but needs to start almost all games.
Shelvey - âŒ
I suppose that's rant over? |  | | |

The selection of JJS for today's match gave me the hope that ML had taken him aside and instilled some discipline into Shelvey's game. Some hope! It appears the lad is ineducable, impulsive and over confident in his own (supposed) ability.
In fact, the performances of Shelvey, Bony and Pozuelo call into question Laudrup's motivational skills. Perhaps the feeling amongst the players that he is off at the end of this season leads them to ignore instructions (if any are indeed given!) | | | |

I don't think Bony & Poz had much chance to do a lot. | |

The selection of JJS gave me the opposite feeling!
His attitude is for him to look good and stuff the team. Alright maybe that's harsh but me isn't a team player and our successes over the last 10 years have been through the establishment of a strong team ethic. We don't look like that anymore |  |
