    Some would argue that it could drastically affect our league position as concentration could diminish. However, some would also argue that beating the likes of Liverpool and Chelsea should give us the confidence and self belief to beat any team in the league and ensure our saftey for next season. </p>

    Boost or hindrance?</p>

    Probably a hindrance. Minds will be elsewhere. No one will want to pick up an injury or suspension.
    On the other hand, everyone will want to play but only 11 can, so they will be fighting for their places....

    Certainly a much needed boost for KO's confidence

    Let's see how he plays with the fans behind him.

    Time will tell

    Hopefully the competition for places will help in performances though.

    Including the Liverpool game

    we've only conceded 3 goals in 6 games. But not won a league game - So it only seems to be affecting our attacking play.
