We will have to be on it for every game week in week out and won't be able to switch off every other week.
Unfortunately I didn't get to the game today (cancelled flights due to the latest storm), so can't comment on the performance per se, but something must be lacking.

It’s hard to believe that was the same team that had won five out the last six. They were wretched - lethargic, no spark, no fight, hard to credit we’re the league’s top scorers as we were devoid of anything going forward. Pereira is clearly a real talent but it was frustrating to watch continually attempt a clever flick instead of just going for the simple pass. To be fair, his performance was no worse than anyone else’s. Wigan thoroughly deserved this result. Now sitting in Costa at Knutsford services thinking “why oh why”

Crikey !  Maybe my internet going on/off was a blessing. Sorry you didn't get a good game sir.

Not an excuse, but the crazy wind favoured the less skilful team - and I'm not being condescending towards Wigan, who might have won 4 or 5 if they'd put some great chances away.
I had to ask myself if Livermore had been taken off because, despite his recent good form, he didn't put a foot right and was nowhere near the action that their midfield were. Why take Harper off?

Livermore certainly wasn't the worst player by a long way, the whole team were 2nd at everything they did
When we play a so called in form side from the bottom of the division (Comical) - us being at the very top forget how to battle for points and promptly fall apart.
Lots of our player need a slap / kick / kiss or what ever to let them know nobody is going to give them the points for turning up.
Quite frankly it's become the norm. But it's OK we are still top. 
And HONESTLY Wigan are CRAP that's why they are down the bottom of the division.

totally disagree that Wigan were CRAP yesterday
was at the game and were were played off the park
not sure if anyone else that watched yesterdays game would say they were Crap
i`m a football supporter and an Albion fan
if we win yes i`m happy,draw still happy
but yesterday i thought they fully deserved the win
left the ground happy cannot win all the time
