sorry fella but what would you normally expect from 9 new signings, a new manager and a new level expectations in the first season incidentally??
We were in exactly the same scenario at the beginning of last season & finished 9th with 55 points. With £80 million of talent added to that squad I would have expected more progress to be made than has been.
But we did seem to get found out very quickley last season, and after a good run at the begining of the season, we needed new ideas, but Sven stuck with the same syatem week in week out, and the second half of last season was so frustrating.
Now many factors may will have contributed to this, but he was still being paid (a rather large amount), so should have done something to boost the playerrs.
Just my opinion, but I think we would have gone backwards this season under Sven.
Still love the guy though, and would give him a big hug if I ever saw him ;-P
I agree totally with you. I wouldn't want Sven back after what went on, however I do believe that what happened in the latter half of last season was because he & all the players knew he was gone (thanks Thaksin). It's not an excuse for what happened by any means but I think it is the reason.
