Beaten before we start.

Can’t help but feel against the top six or 7 sides that we are beaten before we start.

I’ll explain my thinking.......take today’s game. Morrison in the tunnel instead of standing proud and tall and pumping out his chest he drank two bottles of water in 30 secs head bowed and never looked at the opposition.Call me old fashioned but Any doubts Spurs had would have been helped by our “ meakness “ against them.
I’ve noticed the same roll over tickle my belly mentality against most of the big sides.

Bit different to how Wolves approached last weeks game against them.

Don’t get me wrong I’m more than happy with our current position but can’t help feeling we have a huge weakness mentally against the big sides.

If Warnock is going to keep on signing players with no footballing ability, then we’ll never match the top teams. At least Swansea got this part right and often beat the top sides.

It terms of technical ability you only have to look at how we float in long crosses and corners. Top sides don't. They drill in hard and fast balls that invariably hit their target. Only camarasa comes anywhere close to this and even he has floaty moments.

The key to getting beat is not to get hammered !!! - Goal difference might be the key factor at the end of the season .
