I'm sure we willWe might have won the league 2 years ago but it's not a season that I will remember fondly for scintillating football.

We won Tier 3 but we didn't do it by playing like Barcelona. We bullied opponents and overwhelmed them with tenacity. How distasteful! How crude! I demand that we win the title with a bit if Tika-Taka this time round, otherwise I'll thcream and thcream and thcream until I'm thick.
We barely got out of our half at Bramall Lane two years ago and that was one of the most thrilling matches I have seen in years. Proper mesters backs against the wall stuff. The sort of performance that demoralises opponents and wins you titles. I'll be happy with more of that rather than a season of Tika-Taka and bubbling around mid-table.
If anyone went to tranmere 2 years ago they will all know that's how you win a game, never seen rovers dominated by another team as much we must of had 2 shots and scored 2 goals. Really was a robbery!

Really was a robbery!Is that better than Rovers dominating possession and winning by two goals though?

Really was a robbery!At the time, if I remember rightly, Tranmere were top of the league and in decent form. Keepingthem at bay and nicking a win was an ideal result. I too would like more entertainment than last time around, but wouldn't mind a few more moments like the Jones winner at Stevenage for example...

All I'm asking for is at least one shot per match (on or off goal will do)
Beats the SOD method of playing teams off the park & losing 1-0 from a set piece that's for sure!

They had an off day. They were deservedly beaten. Move on.It really sticks in the craw, playing well and still getting beaten. It shouldn't because they can take something from the game and hope to build on it in future.
I agree with the post which highlights that it's not just a choice between all out attack and all out defence. I wants wins but would be happier if I saw a bit of nice attacking footy now and again. I actually think we'll get some with the added pace. And while I'm at it, the old style Barca footy is a bit boring after 20 minx anyway. Just want a belief and our players to share that. Half as entertaining as Bournemouth and I'll be smiling
