After an exchange with
Matt1882
earlier it did get me thinking about the similarities between this and Poch's first season.
Both seasons were coming off the back of terrible football, with massively bloated squads full of players with either bad attitudes or who were simply not good enough. Fanbase is seemingly at an all-time low and a new manager who is seemingly coming in to play a more attacking brand of football.
Poch didn't manage to get many players out the door in his first summer in charge, but by the end of the second, after a decent second half to the season, we offloaded a lot players.
I remember many conversations online and with mates who didn't like Poch, didn't think the football was ever going to click and some even wanted him gone after the first 10-15 games.
I think Aneg has had better signings this window than Poch's first but he had arguably a worse squad on the whole.
