I love the way the Caf gets a firework up its arse sometimes and decides it knows exactly what the club needs.
First it was a meltdown that we needed to clear out the dead wood; and it sort of happened. We got rid of Fletcher, Cleverley, Hernandez, Nani, Vidic and Ferdinand. We got worse.
Get Klopp in now! Said the Caf. The season before he almost got relegated with Dortmund.
Then it was to make bigger signings, and this actually happened too! We spent more than City. We didn't improve.
'Stop with 3-5-2. Play the diamond formation' - this one was like an obsession. Every game, every thread, diamond this, diamond that. We finally switched to the 442 diamond. We didn't improve.
Now it's a DOF
- everywhere you turn in here somebody's going on about it. I think you've built it up too much in your minds, like appointing a DOF will suddenly have us playing like Barcelona and signing all the best players.
There's no silver bullet to fix this guys, other than maybe sacking LVG - but even then it will time to get the squad playing proper attacking football again.
