I can’t believe a 10 point lead could be shredded to two tomorrow. It’s mentally weak.
For those calling for Kane to be dropped it’s a bit much. Ultimately, we had to fight today. We knew that. And we’ve been found out. I feel weve gone backwards this season.
Firstly, we had such a good year last time round that going backwards was inherently more likely than forwards. Secondly, we sold the league's best right-back, and his replacement hasn't worked out yet. Thirdly, we've played away from our usual home ground all year (and our away results have actually been a point better). In those circumstances, it would have been extremely surprising for us to get to 86 points again, and plenty of our own fans, the pundits and others thought we'd finish 5th or 6th at the start of the season.
