And it isn't a big problem. It is perfectly obvious we wont be challenging for the title and even top four looks incredibly optimistic. THis was always going to be a very tough season under the circumstances. Just have to let it play itself out.
We lose away to Stoke, Liverpool and Chelsea most years anyway, so we're not really below-par yet. In fact usually we've lost at home to West Ham or Villa by now. Agreed that top four is probably beyond us anyway so we just have to sweat it out.
