Good teams that win on a bad day have the luxury of being a "good team" that had a blip. We've had a good start to the season - I'm sure nobody would disagree, but if any team is outplayed on a regular basis as we were against Ipswich for periods of that game, then the long term outlook is not good. A team playing well and losing is less of a problem than a team winning against the run of play in my book. I suppose there is the psychological advantage of winning that strengthens team core and self belief, but with the risk of missing the reality of what's really happening. In the end though, when it all averages out, teams that are outplayed on a regular basis, lose games. Perhaps we're working towards that "good team" tag so we can afford a bad day victory in the knowledge that we'll be back to "normal" for the next game. Quite a simple thought process really!
