I can't remember Southampton having any other shots apart from the two they scored, similarly Liverpool and again yesterday QPR had a couple of softer attempts before bagging the obligatory goal. On the other hand we're carving out chance after chance with some sublime football and are still failing to convert them. A couple of clinical finishes yesterday and we'd have had a couple of goals of the month. Honestly believe if we click fully into gear then we can have this title wrapped up in April.

sounded really good
lionheart said:Some good news is that Borussia Dortmund are also struggling at present. Only won their first home game with a very late winner and were held to a draw at Nurnberg (sic) the other day. They are evidently missing that Japanese ****.
tolmie's hairdoo said:It's not clear the actual cause for it is, but we currently transmit a clear sense of unnecessary panic from our defenders when the opposition come forward?
It doesn't even need to be what I would deem imminent danger, just a desperation to either jump early into the tackle or an uncertainty when to come out.
We appear short, even overrun.
Kompany has again started the season slowly and I wish he would trust himself a little more with a quicker ball out to his full-back, or in to midfield, rather than the easy option to Joleon, who, for all his qualities, is the least comfortable in the team when in possession.
It generally reverts to type and a short passage of play back to Hart, just what the opposition wants.
Thought Rodwell looked a class act but the return of Barry should bring a noticeable difference.
Would love to see Nasri coming much deeper for the ball to instigate the momentum, rather than the onus on Yaya all the time.
Three points, and thankfully, we still have another three gears in our locker, which is more than the majority of teams.
