1. As much as fans would like them to, top managers or managers who wish to be top managers never air their mistakes in public. You didn't see Ferguson do it until months after an issue arose, and you don't see Wenger or Mourinho (other than sulking) or whoever else. They may admit responsibility, but very rarely will they openly admit to mistakes. It signals weakness, firstly to the media and secondly to other managers.
2. He has tried to rectify them by implementing a more defensive method since the turn of the year. He did it notably this season starting at Spurs at home after the Stoke game, and he got slaughtered for it despite us getting a 1-1 draw against what was the best side to come to Goodison so far this season and a game that we ended up finishing on the front foot.
3. He has not kept making the same mistakes. You're wrong, and you - like I - have no idea what is going on behind the scenes. From the outside, since the turn of the year, I think the signs are there that there has been a clear shift to retaining some defensive solidity, and in the last few games before WBA the balance was perfect.
