Anyone else feel like it's Groundhog Day?

(F***ing Zutons. I'm not buying it on principle.)
It's not actually that surprising and it happens to a lot of 'progressive' sides who like to dominate possession and attack.

I don't really need to remind anyone that much admired Ipswich lost to Maidstone while having 38 shots and 78% possession.

And then there's West Ham. Arsenal had 74% against them and 30 shots and lost 2-0. Spurs lost to them as well, yet had 75% possession and 23 shots. And, of course, us, taking one point off them, 69% of the ball and 22 shots up there and 78% / 25 shots in the home game. But I know I'd rather watch any of the three other teams mentioned than watch West Ham every week.

The only team consistently able to break down a well organised side that play on the break are Man City because they have players bought by the bankroll of an actual country.
