we dont need attacking. We need results! and we sure dont need he EXACT SAME excuses as Benitez gave us just 4 weeks ago!!
As Benitez proved adequately, don't attack and you don't get results. After years of suffering we now have a manager whose aim is to try and outplay the opposition. Truth is, there are only two great teams in the PL. All the others are beatable, but only if you
try and beat them. Under Lampard we'll continue to lose games we won't be happy about. But his belief in playing on the front foot will mean he's going to win the 3 points more often, certainly more often than the once in 15 Benitez did once he got past his opening results.
I'm far from certain we'll survive (certainly after today's away wins by Burnley and Watford) but going looking for all the points (OK, excepting against The RS and City) has to be the way out of the mess we're in, and definitely when up against fellow strugglers. Even more so as our defence is so bad.
