Therein lies the problem. Too many draws have come from winning positions, not many have come from when we've been behind I'd imagine.
A fair few of the draws have come from us conceding really late, we've not been mentally strong enough to see games out, you convert a few of those and we are a hell of a lot higher. Some of the one goal defeats have also come from a similar situation, this is the difference between top and bottom, it's not playing styles, it's mentality, we showed it under Wagner and under corberan, the winners mentality, the we shan't roll over, we'll see it out one way or another.
This season we've been mentally weak, we've rolled over and died, we've cowered from the off, we have too many cowards in this squad, too many that when the going gets tough, they hide, koroma, Thomas, wiles, burgzorg, you could add the likes of ward to that list too. That's most of your front line, how can you even attack when they don't want it?
Look at some of the injuries we've suffered, ward is a walking sick note, prone to picking and choosing who he plays for, ruffles, I don't really get how he's been out so long, it must have been pretty much since Warnock left? Yuta- got unlucky with another serious injury, but he's never seemed to have the strength physically or mentally for English football. Rudoni missed a game or two because he had a knock and didn't think he was 100%, it's a relegation battle, you play at 80% and get the job done, not rely on others and an oat meal latte. Hogg-shoulder injury? He came back from a broken neck in the promotion season and now can't play because his shoulder hurts? What's he even done, he's been in pictures without a sling, painkillers and get out there general, we need leaders, you lead. Too late now
There's a massive malaise in this squad, too many have gone home early mentally, not just physically as Andre said, some haven't been here since Feb, half of them probably having their agent telling them I can get you this move or that move and the player then thinking they are better than what they are. News flash 95% of you are crap and are one if not two divisions higher than you should be, I can count on one hand the players that are championship quality and even then, you're probably looking at lower midtable and below.
