Absolutely. I guess most fans would agree with the analysis of the problems but not necessarily the praise of the McNulty-type solution (which I share) - "Not only did his sides aim to control games by controlling those distances, but he also understood that before you can build a successful team, you have to build a collective". Many of those whose recent loss of faith you cite are the same fans who couldn't wait to replace 'boring' McNulty with exciting Klopp-style Ian Watson. Watson came in and dismantled the formation and personnel which was the very basis of that success. Grass greener, what you wish for etc! |

But surely the fact there's never a guarantee you will produce 1 Matheson per year doesn't deny the fact that the Academy's success is a unique source of pride for the Club and for this one supporter as well. Of course you can debate the balance between youth and experience needed in a team but again, nobody spent transfer fees on 'established' players to attempt to replace Henderson etc intending they would spend 80% of the season not playing together. |
