Not joining any “Smith out” campaign (I don’t actually think there is one, think that’s a bit of a straw man) but so far we have had from Dean Smith exactly what I expected. Won 6, drawn 6, lost 5. Scored 31, conceded 28. So lots of attacking football but lots of goals conceded and points dropped as well. Exactly what you got at his other clubs. He may need to change his approach to matches if he is to be a success here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still believe he deserves a summer and a pre season to his belt like Steve Bruce did. But that doesn't mean i believe in this DS project. Reason being what you mentioned, his defensive record as a coach. Edited January 20, 2019 by villalad21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
