Ok we aint playing fast flowing football just yet.But we are winning more than we are losing.I still have my doubts about Mixu but winning games.Winning games keeps a manager in a job.Would we rather play fast flowing football and be in the bottom 6 or keep playing poor and picking up 3 points most weeks.Thoughts anybody and what are your thoughts on the job Mixu has done so far.Football wise i would give him a 5 out of ten for the football we are playing under him.And 8 out of ten for the results we are getting under him as manager.

Probably a fair assessment so far. I can understand why so many fans are frustrated when they are paying money to watch football that is not very entertaining. I'm not in a position to go to ER much these days, so I'm probably a bit happier than most as the results have definitely improved.
People can be idealistic and say we should expect good football and good results. Not realistic given the squad currently at his disposal in my opinion. And in his favour, we are currently on course to achieve our best league position in three seasons, are we not? That has to count for quite a lot given the sinking ship Mixu took over. If Collins and Craig had continued much longer, I'm convinced we would have finished in the bottom six.
I'd like to think the entertainment value will improve next season although I'm not so sure about that. My impression is that Mixu is a practical coach rather than a purist like our previous manager(s). Mixu is more concerned with results than entertainment.
