Despite his expenditure, he has had to rebuild the squad from top-to-bottom and challenge the top six and is making considerable progress.

The journalist needs to check his facts. He did not take over a team facing a relegation battle. They finished in the top ten the previous season. Also we were already in UEFA cup (Albeit via the fair play route).
He has exaggerated the level of crisis at the club. We were a safe mid table team.
