But we did attack enough

We had shi*t loads of efforts at goal and half a dozen really good opportunities. That would normally be enough to win you games at prem level. Last season I think we must have had one of the best chance to goal conversion rates in the league as we certainly didn't create that many openings.

I agree however that we let it drift aimlessly for too long in the second half before the late rally.
