bro, lets be patience.....
we really hav the quality in some new signings, Miereles, Konchesky and Cole
these are the 3 departments need enforcements
its not tat we are useless, juz tat our opponents played better, our opponent cross well, pass well as nd fast,pinpoint (like Alonso) they defended well, (look at wat Skretel and Johnson can do

)
LUCKILY we hav Torres ( though we is a bit jaded rite now) , Cole , Mierles , Konchesky (he is better than Insua

[sorry Sols]) and Kyut.
Once these Midfielders can play together, our confidence will be back
do you guys remembered when Cisse broke his leg, our confidence was at all time low then, however we managed to climb back and end the season in the top 5?
now lets hav confidence in them and once we "steal" 1 or 3 points fr ManU in the next match, all will be back
We'll never look back from then onwards

The way I see it is that we played so badly that even West Brom side looked like an elite team(no offence to west brom fans). It is not that they played well and all that...Is us making them look good because we played way below part.Do tell me, how a side that get hammered by Chelsea 6-0 on opening day managed to hold us that long until Torres scored that winning goal? West Brom is a newly promoted side which, in the past, most of us would expect the team to thrash them by banging in few goals.Now, we happened to be that lucky to score one goal with ONE chance we created.Bloody hell.
I have failed to see how Hodgson will be able to change the club fortune.Not only that he is sticking to Rafa's tactic which is obviously no longer working, he doesn't seem like he is one who can handle pressure and deal with problems when the club need him to. The fact that he looks clueless, praying while watching his watch during Birmingham game do tell u smth. And he is actually happy with one point.
I am not hoping that Mourinho will come and manage us but at least I m eager to see someone of his passion and quality.If chelsea were drawing 1-1, he wont be hesitate to throw in 2 strikers to add more attacking power instead of stubbornly sticking to 2 holding midfielders which clearly isn't working.
