No great surprise. How many poor 1st halves or starts to games over the last year ?
It's like they are frightened to take the game to the opponent, and only start playing when they've fooked it up and the pressure is off.
If you took the Man Utd game out, you would have to wonder how the fuck have they managed to get 14pts with mainly scrappy and often lucky results.
With that defence, it's mid-table at best this season.
