Barnesie made a very interesting point in that Chelsea didnt win one match from behind last season.
He says that we could have signed a european player but by signing Adam and Downing we will have a better team spirit.
Is that a valid point?

team spirit alone doesnt win you the PL but its a big factor. the most important thing is ability followed by tactics and then team spirit. you cant underestimate team spirit. who says buy signing british players we will have a better team spirit? didnt dyer and bower both have a lovers tiff at newcastle in the middle of the game? if am not mistaken they are both british/english.

like Suso said it is also tactic along with team spirit, Blackpool showed real team spirit last year, however their throw the kitchen sink attacking tactic allowed them to be badly exposed, therefore leading to their relegation, if Holloway also concentrated on the defensive Blackpool may be saved

I don't think the owners, Kenny, Clarke, or the players are idiots, they won't be thinking next year we are gonna win the title. They will be thinking lets push for top 4 and anything above that is a bonus. So the fact that team spirit doesn't necessarily win you the PL isn't an issue for next season, but I think this team spirit is an x factor that can helps to grind out the tough games and get in the top 4.

With these new signings I think team spirit is the key. Why? Because games against clubs so much lower in quality than us we simply lost. Kenny appears to be changing the mentality. The problem with foreign signings is they take those PL matches against Wolves etc for granted. I don't think Adam or Downing will. Those are the matches we lost or drew and they are the ones we need to win. That's my idea anyway. That's where we'll earn those extra points if all goes well of course.
