He certainly never helped us with comments like that, takes years to shake that attitude off as well.Moyes' fault.
Knife to a gunfight and all that.
Losers.
I honestly think we just need to win one to break the hoodoo. There’s been countless times we were close but just evertoned if right at the death. The Pienaar chip at the emirates and then Rosicky equalising off a Lucas Neill deflection in the last minute was cruel. As was Howard bowling Kuyt over when he was heading out of play when we had the win at Anfield, John Terry scoring in the 100th minute at Stamford Bridge under Martinez, the penalty at Old Trafford in 95th minute in Koeman’s first season. Our performances merit the same ratio of wins at these grounds that other teams get but our mentality stops us from getting them. Other teams think ‘free swing, what a bonus win to get’, our players tthink ‘OMFG we’re 2 minutes away from beating x club at their home ground, this shouldn’t be happening, oh no I can’t breathe, crap I’ve given a pen away, that feels better, a nice solid draw’
Losing to liverpool 1-0 in 2010 was the worst one. there CB got sent off in the 33rd minute and we still lost 1-0 to a kuyt header. On Paper we had the stronger team aswell
Its a mentality thing that desperately needs sorting out.
We lost both derbies that season despite being the better side by a mile in both. We lost one 2-0 and they only had one shot on target which was when Kuyt bundled in the last minute second, the first was a Mascherano punt from distance that deflected in. Fellaini and a few others missed from point blank range that game. Everton that.
I ended up draped over the front row barrier of the top balcony like Kevin Keegan when DCL missed that chance at the end.The 0-0 last season too. Missed abar 3 sitters in the last 5 minutes.
