bob was good at saying "we're mediocre, but we can do this to try and luck out wins against great teams"

we're trying to improve, and sometimes trying to play pretty without the pieces or comfort is going to lead to a team playing uglier than playing ugly. frick look at chelsea last yaer under AvB
