Like a number of our players the confidence was completely taken fromm them last season. Think about McLeish gives you a team talk about trying not to lose, and then you go make a mistake as a young kid. You're belief, which is already at an all time low, added to an already very tense crowd, gets even more shredded.

And then your manager critisises you in the post match interview!

Albrighton wasn't poor to the end of the season. He had a slump and then started to find his form again.
It was his first proper season in the top flight after all.

That's a favourable way of looking at it, Maz. It was his second really. He started against West Ham on the opening day of 2010/11 afterall.

Undoubtedly vital seasons for Bannan and Marc though. Fail to impress this year and they'll be off next Summer, I reckon. Both only have 2 years of their deal left as well so if we do want rid next Summer then the ball will be in the clubs court, so to speak.
