Yes, like we've done okay in the League Cup final against Birmingham or scraping through against Wigan on Penalties? Lesser calibre makes no difference if you can't control your nerves. We've gotten better in Europe when the pressure isn't on but fumble it when the pressure is turned back on. We should have topped our group this year.
