Why can't we win when we go 1-0 down?

Personally though, I don't think it's purely mentality. We've been a team best suited to the counter attack for years, as I keep saying. When you're losing, the opposition often tighten up a bit, sit back, and we can't counter attack like that. We struggle a lot more when we have to break a team down. Conversely, when we go ahead, we can afford to do the same and opponents know we can be dangerous on the counter, so they can be wary of over committing, and if they do, we can counter and extend our lead.

I think there's some mentality issues too, partly from being a young squad, but I don't think the tactical element should be ignored.

Apparently we were the 2nd worst team for picking up points from losing positions last season (would have been bottom but for the Millwall game!)

Although we did fall behind the 4th fewest times so there's a positive!

We were also 5th best at taking points from winning positions.

I agree with @lraC though, seems pretty rare. I even got 2-1 odds on city turning it around at half time on Saturday!
