I think Rafa's got the experience to turn it around and get the lads winning again.
It does concern me that we still have trouble getting through defences that are determined to shut up shop though. According to the BBC stats we had 67% of possession and 86% of shots and shots on target.

Extremely bad result.

Unless we spend big in January on transfers coming in (in my opinion) we won't be going up this season unfortunately with the way it's going as we've already lost 7 matches this season.

Colback is terrible and cost us a result today and without Shelvey we don't have a plan B .
I agree it's a worry. But have a look at the league table and our record so far and think about what we've achieved so far. We may not be doing well enough to finish as champions but we're doing well enough to get promoted.

I know the result wasn't good but we were excellent in the game today and I think the team (minus Colback) can come away with credit in the game.

We're right to be worried but IMO it's too long early to say we're not going up.

And we actually found the back of the net twice though they were rightly disallowed.

We were unlucky not to get so much as a point.
