I think being too attacking rather than too negative has cost us recently away from home

we've set up too open and have tried to go toe to toe with the opposition. It worked (to an extent) against Cardiff and West Ham when we were unlucky, but against teams with better players we have generally been played off the park.

Should have carried on with the tighter more negative tactics that got us good results at West Brom, Palace and Sunderland before Xmas.
