The slow creeping realisation that they really aren't that good is delicious. They all bought into the narrative of turning another corner, mega money signings and shirt sales, the special one, back in business and once again (After the Hull game) about to conquer the footballing landscape. Those first 40 minutes yesterday was a cold backhanded slap into wakey-wakey land.
It won't be long before the Norwich scarf wearing softarses are out in force again and we'll once again see the cracks in Moureen's Psyche emerge, especially if they suffer a couple of crap results in the upcoming games. We'll see more players being thrown under the bus, backroom issues will be a plenty, more referees will be publicly blamed and critisised. It'll be just like his last season at Chelsea all over again. Despite the media circle jerk telling us how great the scum and Maureen are I've seen very little to suggest anything of radical or successful change with regards to how they set up and play. Long ball, long ball, hit a cross in, long ball, get Young on for a penalty etc. As already mentioned, Spurs, Dippers, Arse all look better.
The pressure is on him big time to succeed this season from those upstairs, the sponsers, their mutant fans and if he doesn't, well, that baby is going to blow. I really can't see the big nosed ego or the £100 Million vanishing French man saving him.
