The Arsenal thing is all a smokescreen. Cannot believe players put in a crap performance to "save themselves". Were Chelsea players not bothered about League when they were in CL SF?
Our issue is a lack of confidence. We do not impose ourselves on opposition, even say against Bolton, Derby and Brum when ahead to quote some recent examples. Consequently we are up to 31 consecutive games without winning when oppo score first. Confident teams dismiss oppo goal as an aberration (as happened in 10/11), to us currently it is min 2 points lost.
Not a moaning thread, been fan since '64 so know it can all change very quickly, but just sense there is a missing ingredient presently.
