How many wake up calls do you guys think we would need before we show some CONSISTENCY.
God, we managed to beat the likes of Arsenal and Deportivo, but why oh why we didn't managed it against the likes of Boro??. We need to beat the 'lesser' teams if we want to win EPL again.
I don't think it's all about the formation and players, (even though they have some impact on today result), but more on the urgency and desire to won the game that we seem to lack in this game.
We lost too many 50-50 balls and we were too slow to move upfront when we have the ball.
Not that our championship hopes gone by this defeat, but it's not a good feeling to depend to others result to go back to the top.
I hope we managed to find and keep that consistency by new year, also I hope it's not too late by then.

cheers..
 
The consistency, especially when away from home, has been a problem for this whole season. I also think it is a mental problem rather than ability or formation. You're right that we can't afford any more wake up call. If we are ten points behind Arsenal when we enter the new year, it will need a miracle for us to fight back (just like last season). Therefore it is important that we sort out our away form asap.
