I was happy to reserve judgment until he’d had a full season to show us his philosophy. I was happy to give him a couple of seasons without worrying overly about results, so long as we could see what he is trying to achieve.
The answer appears to be that he has no philosophy or vision beyond ‘don’t under any circumstances play a midfield with any creativity’.
In short, it is with some regret that I must join the vulgar hordes on the bandwagon and declare myself and Emeryouter.
I hate him for doing this to me.
