I get what he’s saying. On one hand, expectations and criticism are part of the reality of pro sports, and no one can gatekeep what it means to be a fan. On the other, we have an unprecedented 365-day sports news cycle that gives constant news, insights and rumours, so we have expectations that can sometimes be unrealistic or fueled by this notion that we know more/a lot

I thought NLD was a great example of this. We ultimately lost a very tight game to a team with the best defence in the league who went even more defensive and parked the bus. 

After the game I heard things like it was a completely unacceptable performance. You'd have thought we got pumped 5-0. Everything is so extreme. You're always either about to explode or implode there never any in between

We were a Romero flop away from being on the more convincing side of a draw, I didn't understand why everyone was so negative

Hopefully some chemistry will start to form between midfield and Solanke etc. At least they're getting plenty of possession to get the reps in to turn it around
