My view is that we have all the ingredients to be successful, by our standards, and we can live with most in the comp. The key now is to try and blend it all in a manner that works for the players, the coaches and for us. As has been mentioned elsewhere, our biggest challenge is that we have had a soft underbelly in our mental strength. We remained strong until we scraped over the finish line, then it became all too easy to blame injuries etc on some dismal performances, when the truth was that we didn't have the will to fight on.
I know we had that wonderful afternoon against the Gooners, but that side, hampered by injuries also, went on to win the big prize as they refused to buckle in the face of adversity. I'm not saying we should have won the GF, but some of that attitude to succeed is what we need to aspire to within our group. If we can instill that, who knows what might be possible!

Top post TRB, my sentiments exactly.
