We do defend really well, credit to the players where it’s deserved. Patricio is one of the top 3 keepers in the league, Coady has become a really good player, and Kilman looks like he’s been playing there for years.

Another game where we haven’t looked like conceding in open play .

not bad for a side trying to change their style with a few new players in the 11 this season

Any great side builds on the back of a strong defence
Positivity!!

Our response to the West Ham debacle has been quite superb to be honest, and to be this solid in what we're hoping will be a transitional season is a major plus

Finally! Came on here before bed looking for something positive and I've finally found it. Thank you OWtW. Everyone on here was praising everything last week and today we are back to the mindless ****e of how bad Wolves are, how wrong Nuno and his tactics are.

Is that(and the lack of goals) entirely down to how we are set up or partly the way teams are setting up against us?

No one questions our ability to defend it’s the effect it has on the rest of our play which is the problem the majority of the time.
Doesn’t seem to get the praise it deserves on here tho

‘but it’s boring .....‘

Tell arsenal that who won the league !

joint top on least goals conceded so far this season, but on the flip side only the bottom 4 have scored less.
we are still trying to find that balance where we can maintain our good defensive setup whilst adding more to our attacking threat, small margins but will be difference between another finish around 7th and moving on to compete for the top 4 or 5 places.

the top 2 have conceded the same number of goals as us 9, but have scored 18 and 19 respectively compared to our 8.

on the other hand Man City have also conceded 9 but only scored 10. For them though its down to a bad start for us it has been a bit of an issue for the last couple of seasons. but shows that it doesn't necessarily need wholesale changes to fix, but we need to increase the goals for column without overly disrupting our good defensive record
