Preston, Scunthorpe, Peterborough, Sheffield United, Reading and Watford have all stung the Robins late on in their respective games, depriving them of valuable points which could have taken them to within touching distance of the Championship pacesetters.[LNB]City have kept six clean sheets in 23 games this season, but have only shut out once since their 0-0 draw with current league leaders Newcastle on October 3.[LNB]Johnson told the Bristol Evening Post: "I think it has now reached the stage where it is playing on their minds. It started out as a physical problem, with players switching off and losing their markers, but it's now become psychological.[LNB]"It's becoming a habit we need to look at, something we need to discuss among ourselves."[LNB]He added: "A defender's job is to see out opposition attacks for the whole game and we don't seem to be able to do that. It's about staying with runners, winning headers, winning your individual battles and concentrating for the entire 90 minutes."[LNB][LNB]
