But the dodgy decisions are a big part of why they'll never develop a winning mentality, plus, although this season has been corrupt as fuck from our officials, it has been as corrupt as it can be given the modern technology now in use, and refs can only give things if teams give them the opportunity to.
Why I think they'll never develop a winning mentality is I believe that comes from the manager first and foremost and while ferguson had that, Ole is a good loser, and that even if you're manager has it, the players HAVE to develop it through being in situations in which they have to give games absolutely everything they have got and take the very highest risks and raise themselves to a higher level to win them, against any opposition or odds, as long as refs are gifting them easy wins while looking to take points off their rivals, every time the pressure is really on and the chips are down, they'll be found wanting scratching around, playing it safe, waiting for the officials to give them something rather than taking it for themselves
