My only complaint at this point would be his plan for midfield. If he has one, it isn't apparent to me. He seems to have a collection of good players without any real plan as to how he wants them to play. But this one may fall into your 'supporters are pig ignorant and relative to professional football managers understand virtually nothing' category. I love Torreira and Gwenda and Xhaka looks a better player this year, however I'm still not sure I understand how he wants them to play together.
Yesterday was one of the games where it looked (to my cretinous eyes at least) like we had a midfield. When he goes cautiously (probably because our defenders are pish) and plays the three plus two at the back we're sometimes a leetle bit short in the abilty to progress the play in the middle of the park, and rely too much on the wing backs. Which is obviously less easy without Hector. The Bosnian tank is looking quite good though. Even did some defending yesterday.
