Obviously, Ramsey’s injuries haven’t helped, but there was always a chance that was going to happen and, anyway, when it came to midfield creativity, we were putting all of our eggs in one basket with him. Colwill has improved and there are flashes from Turnbull that are promising, but I can’t help thinking that Bulut will be a counter attacking, 1-0 type manager even if we had the players capable of something more ambitious and attractive.
Let’s reduce the analysis paralysis and strip it back to some basic key points:

1. Morale looks good and belief restored - always a good indicator

2. The defence issue has been sorted with Horvath, Phillips and the left back from Man City.

3. The effect of .2 is to drastically reduce goals conceded, converting losses into draws and draws into wins

4. Results and Form have now bumped up and are exceeding the average points per game accumulated prior to those changes

5. Although it isn’t possession-based football that Generation Z and a few purists obsess about, the football and passing is high quality in the areas that matter

6. We have squad depth at keeper, defence, midfield and up front. This means that as other teams energy levels drain, we have fresh legs running into the second half of the season

7. We still have Ramsey to return at some point and this run of form is being achieved without him

We will make top six, or be damn close. Heads up all. Negative Nellies need not apply. The boys are on their way and all the signs to me is this is a “Tally Ho” moment.

Sit back and enjoy the ride. We are in for one hell of an exciting season finish!
