It did seem that way, which kind of explained for our poorer domestic speel in between October to December as many of the players took their eye off games and focused on Europe.
I don't miss Rangers per se, however I will admit, I do miss a strong challenge, it feels so much more satisfying winning the title after a long and gruelling 38 game season than it does when we coast to victory
Edit - Yeah, I'd have to agree with that Patrick
