Manchester City have been in the doldrums for a while, they came up and went straight back down again.
Any team that lets in 50 goals should never be in second position in the first place.
One year's poor form remains a blip but if it happens next year, you can say it's a trend.
You look at players who are off form and there's a general disappointment, their confidence goes low and their whole demeanour can change. I've seen it hundreds of times but it's difficult to know what's really going on inside someone's mind.
My constant prayer, these days, as I start my backswing is, 'Oh, please let me swing slowly.' The trouble is that sometimes I wonder whether I swing at all; whether I am not strictly a chopper.
Sometimes if you kick too much, it can work in a negative direction. If you get tired or sore, you might develop some bad habits.
A win by an unsound combination, however showy, fills me with artistic horror.
I had a really bad running posture: like, I ran, literally, dropping on my face.
In the league, if you have a bad spell, then you are running behind.
Losing streaks are funny. If you lose at the beginning you got off to a bad start. If you lose in the middle of the season, you're in a slump. If you lose at the end, you're choking.
