We cant - and shouldnt - expect to play with flare in every game. Players get tired, opponents change their approach, psychology plays a huge role too, hammering Swansea and Bristol can have a negative effect. That's something English football has never grapsed; winning is hugely about psychology.
It wouldnt worry me at all if we had a half dozen average games and a few defeats. What matters is staying in the top few places and then, come end January, we re-find our flair and get up a fresh head of steam and start to batter people again.
Good points. To be honest I'd have taken a draw at Wigan and a draw with the noses today before kick off in either game. Even more so after kick off!
