Nobody is panicking. Yawning more like. It's not like we haven't seen this before.
I don't think there has been as much optimism in the last few years as there was before kick-off. That was quickly deflated as reality bit in. There's always this feeling that with these players we should be right up there challenging for everything. The players are good enough to do that - most of them anyway. It's the organisation, the preparation, consideration of the opponent in front of us, the ability to change track in-game when things are bogged down. These areas are where the predictability lies. Same patterns, same story. We'll do okay this season but it'll be these problems which we haven't solved that will cost us when those fine margins between winning and almost doing something crop up. We'll almost do something again this year. Nearly.
