wish we can change our mentality against these so called bigger teams - every time we seem to play these teams we seem to go to pot - even if the weeks before we played like millionaires!

Manure were there for the taking and again we cannot get over line and get 3 points - to me anyway we seem to play with fear as soon as its a bigger team - for years now this has been happening and you only have to look across the road - the pool have been vunerable on quite a few times we have played them and we seem to implode against them.

Onwards and upwards anyway and hopefully 3 points next game.

We will turn one of them over, and soon. Once we do that the confidence will build and we will do it regularly.

We tend to struggle against the top 6 teams because they have better players than us and play consistently to a higher standard. It’s not that we “go to pot” we just aren’t as good as them and we would have to have a great performance to beat them, it happens sometimes. If it happened regularly it’s because we would be a top 6 team.

Thought we beat Man City 5-0 and we still don't do it regularly.

Helps when you have a level playing field and not playing against 12 and all the Media as well, until var comes in we will always struggle against the top 6.

Cannot see the top 6 being over excited of var, why should they.

In 12 months we have come a long way. We need to go that bit further to get top 6 but sorting the defence would go a long way to making that happen. I see many posts saying Keane and Zouma are top notch. But we concede 2 every other match. If we could get that down to one or even none, we would be a lot higher up the league. Yes we don't have a Bob Latchford, Andy Gray or Graeme Sharp, but scoring is not the problem at the mo. I expect Calvert Lewin to carry on progressing and Richarlison too. Both are still immature and will improve as they get to 23 or 24.
