"Fell away" ... it absolutely flatlined just after half season. IIRC the late season rally coincided with Caicedo claiming his "first pick on the team sheet" status.
As much as RDZ quite rightly gets the plaudits for taking the foundations Potter put in place and turning us into a far more...
Take it one game at a time. Spurs next. The first of the 6-pointers in the top-4 race. (No, I don't currently include Brentford being in that race ... but if they win tonight they might be).

By the same token, that draw we got against them second game of the season (and dropping tracker points) is looking a far better result now than it did at the time. On a similar vein, we've still got some underperforming teams (Leicester, West Ham, Wolves, Villa all present opportunities) to...
Can tell we didn't win and dropped points for the tracker from the simple fact I found this down on page 5...
Back down to +7. Still a great position to be during the WC break.
