Following Arsenal is like driving yourself insane (and in a funk)

2. Complacency

Just because you’re ahead of someone or better than someone doesn’t mean that they won’t have their chances to come back and bite you in your derrier. A battle is never won before it’s over. You have to keep fighting no matter how many glorious moments you have in between.

Slacking in the beginning and then trying to pull off miracles in the end doesn’t have a convincing success rate (our performance in winning the fourth place trophy suggests otherwise, but well, it’s the fourth place trophy).

Winning and losing makes all the difference and anyone who says otherwise is just a chronic loser.

Arsenal seemed to let Villa into the game far too easily, especially in midfield, with a combative influence (Kondogbia?) being sorely missed.
