We are a top 10 side. I think it a little churlish to protest against a manager who keeps this club punching above its weight. We just cannot compete with the moneyed clubs so I think Sam's nurturing of homegrown talent (Davies, JonJoe etc) and young budding talent like DCL is the way forward.
I think we're all a wee bit down after tonight's game, but I'm loath to kneejerk over it. Coming up,if we can get something against a very good Palace team, and if Bournemouth let their guard down against Huddersfield, we will be sitting pretty in 9th which, in a league as difficult as the PL, is something we can all really puff our chests out about.
