Does anybody else think it's a bit strange that, since they've either won the league or been promoted, all 3 of Arsenal, Norwich and West Brom have distinctly gone of the boil?
Correct me if Iâ₠¬ÃƒÆ’¢â€žÂ¢m wrong (and I know you will
), but have Arsenal actually won a game since (draws against Spurs, Birmingham and Portsmouth), Norwich were lucky against Preston at the weekend and lost last night, and West Brom have lost the last 2.
Iâ₠¬ÃƒÆ’¢â€žÂ¢ve got 3 theories:
1. Is this simply a case of the better team winning on the night (or not winning but, on the other hand, not losing in the case of Arsenal)?
2. The †˜lowerâà ¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â€Š¾Ãƒâ€šÃ‚¢ teams raising their games against the promoted ones?
3. The promoted teams / champions getting complacent as their season is already effectively over
?
