A lot has been said in regards to how Brendan managed his players as opposed to how Jürgen has managed the same players,
There has been many good points made for and against, but the two things that shines brighter for me are belief and confidence,
In TPM'S case his philosophy got lost somewhere between the dressing room & the whitewash, the players belief & subsequently confidence dwindled and eventually died, in the end players no longer believed in Brendan or whatever he said, towards the very end imo Brendan had lost the dressing room,
In comes Jürgen and with him a new belief, a fresh start for everyone, slowly he instilled confidence and a trust in what he said, another factor missing from the TPM was a level of fitness, Jürgen has redressed this and we are reaping the benefits,
Really can't wait until next season, we're in for one hell of a ride.
