Certainly one way to look at it. Why we were slow starters its hard to fathom with the type of players we had at the time. However I think its clear that Robson was very good at influencing games from the sidelines. Of course he had good quality in the squad to do so too. I think it also goes back to his desire to have a blue chip brigade. A solid core of top professionals who basically gave you 7 out of 10 every week. That helps you stay in the game even if you fall behind. You're only a goal away from turning it around, and those types of players can wrestle back control for you at any moment. Just smart management based on years of experience.
