Don't agree its the reason for our slow passing but see your point on the injury front.Maybe, but that is where strength in depth comes into play which is something that we can't financially afford really. And as has been said earlier in the thread, if you look at Chelsea they have had no issues with their major players being out injured and they're taking the league by storm because the team has largely stayed the same line up wise. Whereas we've been disjointed which I think is part of the reason for our slow passing.
For me the tactics are ruining us.
Even steve bruce said he knew how we would play and we would not surprise him.
