A defeat on the pitch but a visual win is what we saw on Friday night against Aston Villa.

I've never seen such a dramatic change in playstyle in such a short period of time; it is utterly staggering to me that within two hours and one training session, Potter has managed to transform the team from what looked like headless chickens running around, to a controlled tempo and the players have an actual idea of where to pass the ball.

We were very unlucky to come away with being out of the cup, for the first half, we had total control, and the game was in free flow.

The 'Strange Days' are over and have finally found Lopetegui, It appears that after all the drama, articles and many rumours, Lopetegui's lives have finally run out.

After weeks of complaints and consistent batterings, the Manchester City game looks like it was the final straw for the Spaniard.

These past two days have been hectic when it comes to the media, about every five minutes you're seeing something new, and as someone who currently has little to no access to WiFi, it is incredibly comical.
