Not to be too negative but a big concern from me is that we have not moved on from the Moyes attitude of containing a team for as long as possible before we actually make any moves ourselves.

It's not exactly the same, but it's not far off from how Moyes played in the League for his final 2 seasons where we have no interest in taking a game to any of our opponents and making them react to us.  Once again, and this seemed evident against Lille, we look more than happy to simply contain a team for 45 minutes whilst we work out the best way to play against them.

But just as it happened before, it happened again for us in the last 6 months and again at Lille, we do a goal or more down and then we're chasing a game.  A game which then often changes due to the fact that the visiting team are usually happy to defend a lead.

It's such a small club mentality to focus all our attention on preventing the opposition from scoring against us, rather than concentrating on actually scoring a goal ourselves.

It feels like we are in for a pretty boring and average season.

It's a sign of the times that you are labelled as optimistic if you predict us finishing anywhere above 12th!
