Guess that i am a plank and thick, oh and forgot to add a pillo
Europa League, yes we played a relegated team last time out and labored superbly to a decisive victory. Being a "couple of games away" from the Cap One Cup Final, was i feel confident the thinking behind Levy's 100 million pound spending spree.
The "record points haul" still got us finished one place below the previous season, West Ham (cannot remember the season) got relegated on 42 points and Stoke finished one season 11th in the league with.................42 points. So your "record points haul" means just what? Points make prizes as Brucie would say and we didn't get enough last season. Simples.
I don't doubt AVB's capabilities or even dimensions, eventually truth will out. Around the end of May 2014 i would suspect.
If you can adequately prove to me that another manager can do as well with a radically changed squad, while grinding out results to keep us in a heavily contested top 6, we'll talk. By the way, we're in the knockout stages of Europa with ALL wins and the Cap One cup is a couple of games away from a final. Besides the highest premiership points haul last year, and the best EVER premiership start THIS year should hopefully demonstrate that any belief in the man's capabilities is not blind.
