Where the feck has that been for the last few months?

Maybe we would have been even higher if we hadn’t been so negative for 6 months. Just shows what can happen when you are more positive in approach. I can’t buy this Bulut master plan garbage. We’ve been watching utter crap since October and today was a huge step forward.

[Keyser Soze]

Because tactics and systems take months to sink in when you aren’t a Liverpool or Man City. The big changes were Horvath, Phillips and Ebrands to shore up the defence, but back four units, centre half partnerships and links / comms between keeper and defence take time.

To anchor your entire expectations around what was happening in Sep-November, in Bulut’s early months, is the definition of insanity.

Football rarely works that way.
