If I may quote myself from the West Brom preview on December 5th:
'I think it's dawning on everybody after the early season optimism that we are in exactly the same place we usually are (and behind where we were when we got rid of Warburton).

Does it mean that if we say in grave tones that he was brought in to win the Champions League then we will win the Champions League?'
