Something wrong with the dressing room it looks like. Dunk as captain & leader has become mute out there. Duffy looks unfit/hungover. No fight or passion once again from midfield who sit and watch when we are on the back foot. One footed March and Trossard need to be brought into this much more...
Teams confidence in Ryan has gone. No dominance in his own 6 yard box and his only strength, shot stopping, has now finally alluded him. They’re all playing as a 2nd goalkeeper instead of picking up players and winning the 2nd ball on the edge of the area.

Tremendous season. Absolutely brilliant but however you sugar coat it missing out on the title was, and possibly always will be, a big regret.

I'm amazed how after this incredible season there are still a few who are hell bent on not enjoying, or letting others, enjoy the moment. After the Wigan game there was quite a bit of tutting, cursing and general disapproval about a very good natured pitch celebration which will live long in the...
