Why is the fact his failure at his previous club is being held against him a surprise? It shows that, even with better players, he is a very limited manager. Did we really need a radical change to a style that was being played throughout the club and had achieved two play offs in two seasons...
The squad is not that bad, lots of top flight experience with promising young players. Hyypia is not getting any where near the best from them and seems inept. He had a good squad in Germany and didn't get anything from them either.
