Maybe that's part of the problem.
We need to be as honest and open about KK as we would any other manager, and not let the fact that he is (and always will be) a legend to get in the way.
I don't think he got it particularly wrong yesterday, as the first half showed.
The second half was pretty dire though - and I also think we have to credit to sunderland for that.
The game should have been put to bed in the first half - it wasn't, and we paid the price for a variety of reasons. KK is only one of them.
The first 25 minutes was some good looking Footy, 2nd half the wheels fell off. Was not Kenny's fault, was not Adam's fault and it was not because Aqualani wasn't playing.
As stated above it was a team issue to which they all should be held accountable for. Flanno being out of position on that goal was no worse then Carr a playing hoof ball or for that matter Adam's lack of tackling.
I saw Lucas give croa few ball's away carelessly as well as Carroll not connecting on some decent crosses.
Suarez hits the the back of the net (which by the way he is paid to do) and it is an opening day win.
Adam's fitness? All of them had hands on hip's in the second half.
Whole stadium sucked after the first 30 or so....2nd half non-existant.
Win-lose and yesterday we drew as a club from top to bottom
