No defence is perfect, having a top 'keeper behind them can make the difference as it did at Cardiff with that outstanding save at 1-0.

We've got the best defence in the country by a distance, we haven't conceded more than 1 goal in a league game since the opening day. I don't think stats like that come about by dumb luck.
We've become very adept at killing games off. We seemingly only raise the tempo for about 20-30 mins these days, get the goals we need in those periods then just use our superiority with the ball to ease to the finish.

We rarely concede the first goal anymore and I think that's key to our success. We haven't actually come from behind to win a game this season, so I'm interested to see how if we can step it up when things aren't going to plan.
