The difference is we do seem to have a plan, a foundation and a philosophy now going forwards, whereas the past 2 seasons consisted of making the most out of MON's leftovers with no real direction (although I would've like to have seen how Houllier would've planned out under another season.), plus I really enjoy the playing style we now have, just need to add a few numbers to the defence and tighten up, there's no reason why we couldn't have a decent season next as long as we keep our big players.
