Confidence spreads throughout the side

When one player – especially a big name player – is confident, that ebbs and flows throughout the side.

When they are miserable and unhappy that is also picked up on.

At the minute, RVP will certainly not be unhappy but he cannot be walking on water either.

A couple more goals and some real Man of the Match performances to reassert his credentials will see him doing this and that can only be a good thing for the rest of the squad.
