I think its just expectations. Last season we werent really expected to be as good as we were so now this year people are expecting it. Though you’re right about this sub, unless we are just thrashing teams people seem to complain about the most nit-picky stuff. Its as if no one has even experienced a tight CL away tie. We won and you’d hardly have known it scrolling through that post match thread.
Ya expectations are through the roof. I’ve seen people talking about us ‘getting revenge’ for heavy defeats in the past too. Like the Man United game , I saw a few people talking about we should pay them back for the 8-2. Or the Chelsea game too, Chelsea have improved a lot from last season (probably the worst team we faced when they were under Lampard). Yet people were talking about it like an easy 3-0 win. There really has been much to suggest we should walk most games too. So then people’s expectations are these easy wins and it’s never the case.
It’s a bit like Odegaard too, he has 2 poor games and people want him dropped but there’s no real alternative for him. Vieira seems to be dropped down the pecking order a bit and I’m not sure you really drop your captain for 2 poor games.
