While our current run is depressing, I’m filled with rage about all of the dropped points earlier in the season. There are so many examples, the Arsenal game being especially aggravating. I’d hoped it wouldn’t come back to bite us, and of course here we are.

We need to improve our record against the moneyed elite, especially with most of them at Villa Park in the second half of the season. I'll be annoyed if wr don't pick up any points from very average looking Arsenal and Tottenham sides, and we are due a win against Man U... it'll be a decade on Thursday.Arsenal perhaps but they showed last night that they can still be dangerous, if they sort their defence out there’s a good team there. I think Spurs have turned a corner and will be back pushing for a top 6 place, they have underperformed so far but putting five past Burnley should boost their confidence. They’re not the sort of games that will decide our season it is making sure we pick up the points against other teams in the bottom half of the league and we play a lot of them over the next few weeks.

The next 3 games define our season.
Right now I don’t trust these players to beat anyone, players have off days, moments, but bloody hell we’ve gone into our shells and Smith and his coaches seem unable to coach them out of them. Nakamba for example, ran the show against Brighton, he’s been pish ever since, McGinn, where do you start, Luiz has been bobbins. We need a win Tuesday, any kind will do followed up with an assured victory on Saturday, nothing else will do.
