It’s a perfect shit storm. He’s returned to a cluster fùck of a mess, with a poisonous atmosphere within the club, their main goalscorer went elsewhere, and all of his key players from last time out have hit that age where they’re going backwards at a rate of knots.
Should also be remembered that his CL winning sides carried incredible luck too, both with the draw and some really staggering refereeing gaffs along the way, even had that pool keeper chucking them I his own net in the showpiece final. Probably why they struggled so badly in the league.
