I said it would be ten games before I made my mind up but I’m going to do it at nine.
There is absolutely no doubt in my mind this manager is getting more out of these players than the sum of their parts due to his tactics and man management. He has evolving the team so much it’s practically a revolution. Consistency is so much better now and that’s due to the fitness improving. Something that was out of his control due to when the players signed.
Away we look strong on the break as we have pace and athleticism and at home we look like we are able to break teams down even if they pack men behind the ball. We stretch teams and tire them out with good, quick passing. We did this today.
He is clearly improving individuals we already had at the club.
I’m absolutely made up we have this manager. The boys look together as well.
All of this he did with no money.

Fitness levels have improved and with that we have better players.
Looking at what we had last season compared to now its frightening. To think Robinson was our best player and now he can't get in the first 11 although to be fair on him he is carrying an injury. What were we doing sending McGuinness out on loan. Last seasons squad was a bit of a joke.

It’s a lot of the same players Chris.
Keeper was here.
Right back was here.
Left back was here albeit injured.
Centre back was at the club but out on loan. As you say crazy.
Other centre back was Kipre who was good to be fair.
Two of the three centre midfielders who played today were here although I think Siopsis signing has made a huge difference. He just knits it together. So much better than Sawyers or Rino. Losing Adams injured was a loss.
Pace on the wings is where we have come on a lot and we look like scoring from all over and that’s just pure good coaching I think.
I’m very happy with this guy and we had better enjoy him as he’s moving on.

I'm not judging after untill 12 games in ish. Anything can happen the next 3 or 4 games and there be people with doubts and manager put talk should we lose the next 3 or 4 that's how mad football fans have become. Eitherway I'm happy with what we got atm so anythings a bonus over past seasons position imo

There will be downs of course. I also fully acknowledge some of the fickle fans will be on their back with a couple of losses.
However I am seeing definite progress and I will defend him when these drop offs come.

I think we need to wait until the international break to have a more balanced view. The next 2 games will be tough, injuries are starting to hit and I reckon we’ll have a much better idea as to our fate then.

Credit to them that they have also done this without Ramsey

Need to get him on an improved, and longer contract asap!

Totally agree with the OP.
It does make me laugh when I see people who were slating the manager and the team after Ipswich, as well as saying early in the season that nothing had changed from last season. But now we've won four in a row, they're saying it's too early to judge

So true. So very blatant.
Had we continued to do badly it would be Tan’s fault.
Now we are doing well I bet it’s nothing to do with Tan.

I've always said we need to give the new manager time to settle in & not go down last season's route of changing the manager every couple of months. People moaning & complaining after a few games was & is always ridiculous.

Nicking that 1-0 win at (a pretty good) Sunderland did it for me
No way would that have happened last season
Bulut doing a fine job
Credit to the players too of course

If we go on a bad run, the same people will be calling for the Manager.
What is a ten game report? Is there an 11-20 game report? Or a 6 game report at the end of the season.
Some people have too much spare time.

Ten to twelve games is a decent time to gauge what Bulut is about, what’s he’s gonna bring to the club, how the season is looking etc.
It’s a message board for discussion. Took me five minutes to write that. You have responded so respectfully fook off.
