When you’re 7 points back from teams playing significantly better than you are, what’s more likely to happen? Then it gets to double figures, then fifteen and rather than talk about about proximity to the top we start talking about how shit Arsenal are and how we’ll get fourth if we go on a decent run.
Tell the truth, would you go into a game against West Ham atm confident of a win? We might, but it’s just as likely 2-0 them. We can’t keep following decent performances with dross and talk about being in touch with the best teams with a straight face.
