I left the Lane last night with mixed feelings. For the third league game running we had a lot of the ball but struggled to turn it into goals.
And when we went 1-0 down the stadium all probably said the same.........'here we go again'
But Rafa's late goal I think will give the players a sudden lift after our poor run and also the hangover from the shocking scenes against Bolton on saturday.
Had that goal not gone in we would go into saturday feeling awful, but that might just have been the gaol we needed to start things off again.
Avoid defeat on saturday and we are a minimum of 5 points clear of 5th place. With 8 games to go I would have taken that if you had offered it to me at the start of the season
The battle of who finishes higher out of us and Arsenal is more important to them than it is to us i feel.............4th place would be a great season and I still think its on
