yeah. Thing is, most pundits are lazy

and they've found an angle re Swansea (the new Barcelona, Leon Brittan is the new Xavi, posession football etc etc). So they have something to talk about and sound knowledgeable about. Without having to do any actual work.

Whereas they haven't really found an angle with us, other than that we're Doing Really Well. There's not much for then to say, and so they don't say much.

In another world, you could imagine informed pundits on, say, MotD doing a piece about what makes us tick, why we've managed to win so many games etc.

But that would take work, and they'll only do that if we beat Manyoo or Spurs or someone.

No harm done to us though. Positive advantage if others don't really know how we play.
