This isn't an Ole bashing thread, but when you get pumped 5-0 by Liverpool. Then 2-0 by MCFC and both teams went easy on us in the 2nd half of each match, you know it's over.
Ole's plan was to hit teams on the break, much like a newly promoted team would do. He basically set us up as underdogs in every single match we played. We got dominated by the likes of Watford...who were absolutely crap.
That losing mentality has stayed with the players even after he has left.
At this moment in time, I still expect us to get flattened by our opponents in the opening games of the coming season.
Regarding ETH, he is making the best of the situation that he has been dumped into. If he can get us 1 trophy in the next 3 years, it'll be some achievement and worth a contract extension.
