Men in Blazers Podcast<\/a>. \u201cThey have a whole lot to play for. We have a lot to play for but it\u2019s a different circumstance when you\u2019re chasing a title.<\/p>\n\u201cWe knew it was probably going to be a little bit nervy, and if one things goes wrong, and the fans start getting a little bit anxious, and I think we played into that occasion.\u201d<\/p>\n
Adams explained \u201cone little mistake\u201d from the home side was the catalyst for the anxious atmosphere to kick in.<\/p>\n
He believed it would be a \u201cdifficult\u201d environment for the Arsenal players to thrive and play their best football in, adding it was \u201cthe best thing to hear\u201d from a visiting player\u2019s perspective.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou can tell early on, when they\u2019re trying to play out from the back, that there was a sense of nervousness,\u201d Adams continued. \u201cThe thing was, the team was playing well. Arsenal in the first five, 10 minutes played some of the best football they did in that game, and you saw they were confident.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs an opposition it\u2019s the best thing too hear. When you\u2019re playing an away game and all of a sudden it feels like the momentum is swinging and it feels like a home game.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt certain moments in the game I heard our fans celebrating or cheering and it was like: why\u2019s it so quiet in hear?\u00a0 They\u2019re trying to chase a title, we\u2019re trying to chase potentially finishing in a European position, but it feels like we\u2019re playing for a little bit more in the circumstances. I think it can be really difficult when you\u2019re in an environment like that.\u201d<\/p>\n
