Guys, here's a positive. AVB is a much better motivater than Ancelotti, that's one thing Carlo didn't have under control last season, also he couldn't reason with players and that's a big reason many of them wernt in form. Anelka for me was someone who had the least feelings for this club, yet he knows this is his last season and he's making huge effort, something he hasnt done in a while. He was good in the Stoke game and brilliant in the villa game. And look at bosingwa, what a huge difference in this man, especially against the most physical team in the PL. The commentator mentioned AVB had a chat with bosingwa and told him to work harder defensively. And Torres has played much better under AVB so far. But with respect to Carlo, he got Torres dumped on him, who was out of form at Liverpool and had no pre season. Just thought I'd mention this since I don't think anyone else has.
