nail on head
we may or may not be fitter, but any fitness advantage we may have is outweighed by the fact that our inability to keep possession (or, with our weedy 3 man midfield, get possession off the opposition) means we have to chase around far more and thus get knackered quicker.
If we happen to go ahead we invariably make an impressive (ie. desperate) attempt to conserve energy by dropping really really deep so we at least only have to run around in one half of the pitch
