You may be right. I've seen a few signs recently which give me hope and I'm not going to over-react to one poor result, every team gets those from time to time. If we go on our 3rd poor run of the season then it will be fatal to our chances of a top 4 finish and show that the recent excellent run has been yet another false dawn. If we finish strongly, get a top 4 finish, sign Podolski nice and early, get RvP signed up and do some more decent business in the transfer market then maybe things will change for the better.
We'll see.
