You can argue that Ole is doing the same with us though. The fact is that Pochettino was at Tottenham for a long, long time and he won nothing with a very good group of players, some would argue he had one of the best elevens in the Premier League. We therefore have learnt that Pochettino is very good at building a team, but has struggled and may always struggle to reach the final hurdle. That's fine, not every Manager is destined to be a winner. But we dont' know if this could apply to Ole, we're still early on in his rebuild of our squad, we know that our attacking players have improved, Martial has seen a massive rise in form since Ole took over while Rashford has not only brought more goals to his game but he's also developing into a playmaker. Greenwood goes from strength to strength. Shaw has improved his fitness and form, Lindelof looks like a decent CB finally. Heck, even Fred who I had totally written off has come good. There are signs that Ole is doing what Poch did and what Klopp did.
This is also backed up with our form, we started off badly, don't think anyone here will excuse the first half season form. But we've also been on genuinely excellent runs of form, title winning form. The signs are there that Ole can make this work, whether he goes the same route as Pochettino and becomes a nearly man is up for debate. But to me, it's just a sideways step if we replaced Ole with Poch, no point upsetting the dressing room and fecking up our Summer transfer plans. I also get pissed off with people dismissing our goals as simply "excellent individual goals", i'm sorry, but that's utter, utter shit. The sheer quantity of excellent goals we've scored lately isn't luck, isn't fluke. It's attacking players confident to express themselves, that comes from the Manager. We aren't passing it sideways and playing safe, we're playing attractive creative football. It doesn't always work and we still are inconsistent (shocker), but that comes with time. Again, the signs are there that we're developing as a formidable attacking unit.
Not only has our attacking players improved but we're also picking up far more clean sheets, so we've improved at the back, improved at the front, scoring more goals, conceding less. Getting runs of solid form together and moved up to 3rd and yet by some in this forum we're not making progress. It's infuriating arguing with these idiots who've had it out for Ole since the day he was made Manager.
