last summers transfer window was completed early ,, gave fans and team a boost . It is this window that has caused such negative thoughts allied with some terrible

pre season performances. I am much less confident now than I was at the end of May

Spot on. Confidence is catching and so is unconfidence. Like I said when Mou came back every single one of us was happy. The last 2 years Ive felt for most of it unbeatable. From the players to the stands we felt strong.

Then starting from Jan time and the more defensive playing the confidence waned even tho we still was winning. It didn't matter we were points ahead the confidence was slipping.

If we had gone into the transfer season with Mou saying look we got a great side but we need to strengthen a,b,c and he went out and got whoever it was that he thought we needed we would have gone into pre season buzzing.

But he didn't.

For the board to extend his contract in these circumstances of a horrible preseason, that really is a statement.

They're basically telling him, you'll be here next season even if you don't win titles this season. I think that will really ease the pressure on Jose.

The deal may have been completed some time ago and they decided to announce it just before the season starts. It might just be coincidence that it's announced after a bad pre-season. On the bright side, I suppose it helps to lift some of the doom and gloom, if any, ahead of the opening game at the Bridge.

A bit premature... Should rather see how he fares in that damn 3rd season. But on the other hand a nice show of intent that he really wants to stay here longer, and the club agrees
