the reason we have been numerous points off the top in the last couple of seasons was because we lost at places like portsmouth, and apart from last season it was with a full strength side.
why question the gaffa?
three points today may have been great, but we have to take week 6 of the premiership in perspective. another three points may have been fine, but in the long run, one point was gaines and we have now got advantage game-wise over our rivals. The gaffa does not and will not concede any ground to our rivals, hence the point that we win zip in september, and having a squad like ours, means when someone like crouch, who has bitched for his place constantly,now has no argument after a contribution like todays.
this is what a squad is all about. Why be so negative about something that is positive at the moment?..?
we are a great side at full strength, and agreed when we change things, we can look ordinary.
However, still not conceding a goal from open play, and stil being unbeaten is very, very good
and is a reason to be very positive rather than the latter.
We have breathing space from our rivals, exept arsenal, which means we are in a much better state than we were in the last few starts to our season, and having looked at the table towards our next few games we could be very successful football wise
