Right there with you. He's already come out and said that the three at the back won't be permanent, which I totally get, but it just speaks of his ability to change just to prove he can. Real change will not be a one off game against Middlesbrough. And like Saratoga, his jovial reaction afterwards really rubbed me the wrong way too.
There are no easy games in the EPL. You are fighting men that are doing what they can to preserve a PL paycheck. Relegation fights are not easy. That Ayala dude for 'Boro was immense. I dunno why we don't raid lower EPL teams for defenders.
