My analogy, and how I feel is simple.

AC/DC.

1st album, raw, brilliant, a bit off in places, but you could see what could happen.

2nd album. Meh. Ace in patches, but mainly meh.

3rd album. Best of 1 and 2, but also the worst of 1 and 2.

4th album. Now, this is looking really good.

6th album. (5th was live doesnt count). Wowzers.

7th album. Win CL.

Go crap after that mind, but still good live.

God I wish we were Led Zep.

Decent chance of us moving to 7th if we win actually, considering the fixtures of the teams around us. Then after that our prem games are West brom, villa, West ham and Sunderland.

Who knows...

You've had this lesson six times before in this season and you still don't know the answer? There's a big pointy hat in the corner for you!

....that'd be good. Sadly we're more often THE GOOMBAY DANCE BAND.

Awful. Basically one song called SEVEN TEARS. Quite ironic really as you made a LOT more than that just by listening to it.

If we can keep clean sheets we'll get the 3 points in the upcoming games.

Scoring wise we're great, but if Martinez can replicate the defensive side of his first season he'll win back the fans.

We're only 2 points off top 7 which is incredible considering how bad our results have been. A run of form (if we can even remember what that is) can see us fly up the table.

The gap to top 6 is slightly more though.

Personally I think he's doing a tremendous job. Ok, the results have been iffy the last 2 seasons but he is slashing the average age of the squad, plus Osman, hibbert and Howard will all be gone in the summer.

Moyes left us with an aging squad. He's leaving deep roots
