I suppose a lot of this comes down to the choice of words.
For example saying I hope that we improve in terms of attacking would be read as a positive comment; whereas saying there has to be an improvement would be read as a negative one.
Obviously the end target is the same.
I would say a fair point re lack of progression re attacking is the lack of training time between a large number of games and I’ve no doubt that we have been spending a lot of time on organisation.
You don’t improve defensively without work on it.
That needed sorted first and foremost.
I’d expect better attacking as the season goes on when it’s less hectic and the organisational stuff is more ingrained.
And we have a proper striker.
