Winning ugly is a necessity now and again. Let's set up like we did tonight at Stoke and Chelsea, I've no problem with that.
At home to Bolton though? Like you say Dave, we can do better, much much better.
Are you sure we can do much much better? It was in home games exactly like tonight that Hughes lost his job by being unable to grind out results from winning positions.
Mancini seems to be being criticized for making a team who were leaking goals focus on defending. The law of averages says that if you stop conceding, but don't stop scoring, you're going to be a winning team. No matter shit performance or good performance, we haven't stopped scoring goals. Barring our two worst performances of the season (Everton and Spurs away), we've created and scored in every match we've played.
Give it time. If we're still this dour and negative in six weeks, I'll be very surprised...
