Some of the Krul criticism...

...really lacks perspective. He will make mistakes. The team will make mistakes. It happens. They are human, not robots. We shouldn't jump on them the moment it happens.
We have a system to play it out from the back because we are an excellent footballing team. Yes, Krul could hoof it but the resultant high turnover of possession would also lead to incessant moaning ('why do we kick it long').
Other teams will press us, not because Krul is a weak link but because sitting off us clearly doesn't work.
Logic suggests the current system is working. A surefire way to make the players nervous about carrying it out is getting on their backs like some fans did in the 2nd half last night.
