Creatitivity? We should have been 4 up at halftime created that many good chances! Besides take time to gel into NW style of play, creating chances from wherever is not going to be a problem this season if Saturday is anything to go by.

I will judge City after our first 10 games, what I do believe is that we won't be in the bottom half come May as Warnock will get his players grafting and fighting to the end
The clubs that City have played so ,I think Luton & Wigan will be in the bottom half come May and at least one of them relegated.
I also believe the Championship is far stronger than when we were in it last time.
ANY OPINIONS ?

Against the lesser sides I think we will be ok,but when we play the top sides,it will become a problem,I might be wrong but time will tell

One thing I would argue is the the spine of the team is as strong if not stronger.
Etheridge will be back, Flint and Morrison look good (although we will have be aware of pace), Pack was excellent and Glatzel on first impressions looks as good a striker as we’ve had for a good while.
The key is can we create ? Let’s see but after seeing a team with 5 players making their league home debuts this team can only improve.

We do well against top sides but probably lose games in last 10mins

Very true but there the usual suspects with odd surprise... so generalise that we'll lose games in last 10 mins more than anytime in games.

Based on everything I've seen this week, we should be top two unless we make some silly mistakes or suffer a bad spell of injuries, even if we do we should be top six.
The spine is solid, the defence is looking solid especially with Pack protecting them and Bamba and Etheridge (keeper I know but work with the defence) to come back in, and the biggest strongest and a very pacey front line we are every team's nightmare to play against.
If I was at say Leeds or Fulham, I would be very worried about having to play against a big strong aggressive Neil Warnock team like this!
