Seems like they've lost all intensity since the 1st international break. They were doing ok before that. Now that we're going into the next one Pellegrini will hopefully sort it out. I still believe they have the individual players capable of getting them to an upper mid-table finish so I'm not panicking yet, but things definitely need to improve when they come back or Pellegrini could see himself under real pressure. First game back is against Spurs. Stupid to insist on a win there (despite them having their own problems right now) but an improved performance is an absolute must.
