This ain't how football is working.
Just because you lose to Burnley, Brighton, etc. doesn't mean you should not be pushing hard and try everything to get back on track, if you don't get that, than i don't know what to tell you.
In PL you are expected to lose a points somewhere in the race against this team, it's just the league that is that tough.
Guess what buddy, if Woolwich was thinking like you, they would have give up long ago.
They lost their easiest matches against Palace, Brighton and Southampton. 3 in a **** row.
But then they beat Chelsea, United and West Ham, matches not much people expecting them to even get points off. Yet they won them all 3, and that's how they get in front of US.
If they were with your thinking, now we would have been in front.
Sorry but you are looking at the small picture, and you are dreaming small, this ain't how you become great.
Try to argue with that example, you can't.
