I was very sceptical at first, probably in light of his tenure at Everton and his second spell at Chelsea, and the loss of Robins.
I hold my hands up at how wrong I was, and at how quickly I realised my apprehension was misplaced.
How he got us from the lower levels of the league to the Playoffs last season was outstanding, but nothing to what he has created and to what we have witnessed so far this season.
What he has done with the players with a pre season under his belt has been nothing short of magnificent, and the attacking play we have seen, in addition to the tightening of the defence has been incredible.
