Vinnie, Lesco, Zabs and Toure were having problems that looked like the ones in Hughes era.
On the other hand, Joey is having a terrible time imho. I really can't remember his last save and those passes he had with Maicon and Vinnie was dreadful.
If you ask me, the main problem is that they had every preseason game in that different system that Bobby wanted, the 3-5-2 and now they are having problems adjusting back to what they were used to be.
I think that's part of it, but I think all the international bollocks has also interfered with pre season & early season training. To debut 3 players v Stoke & Clattenberg away is quite a gamble as well.
If it's to be proved a correct gamble, we need to get something in Madrid.
Imho, Bobby got i right today. Stoke is a difficult team at home like they are every season and we deserved to win today if it wasen't for that hairless cunt.
We would had seen other players today, Silva, etc if it wasen't the game with Madrid which Bobby has high expectations.
PS: If you ask me, the most important change that Bobby had today was getting Gazbaz on the field. From that moment on, Stoke lost the ball more often.
