Sarri has his blind spots but all managers do even the great ones. If I was JT/Frank I’d swerve us until there was a clear pathway from our youth set up to the first team otherwise they would be working with very limited resources and talent pool.

I’ve felt for a long time that we have been approaching a huge crossroads where we could not carry on playing in the defensive manner we have in the last five seasons with so much reliance on individuals of the class of Fabregas, Hazard & Costa to provide and score goals.It was obvious to me that the previous level of financial resources are not available and therefore we will not compete for the best players. In order to at least maintain a position in the top six we have to change the style of play to try and keep the ball as our rivals now have the better impact players who only need one chance or one mistake by the opposition.

Personally I think he’s on the right track, we are certainly no worse than last season and will probably end up with more points. The problem has been the intensity levels but I think that is a player issue as opposed to a Sarri issue.

What annoys me is that with so much still to play for with seven games to go along with the Europa League as well, why people spend their energy getting on the man’s back just because he didn’t bring on an 18 year old sulky kid when he’s trying to win three points.
