It's just... It was a Monday, Mario.

I mean, they've definitely turned a corner.

That is the truth they have.

It's just when you analyse their fixtures, Liverpool away next, and I'm not sure what's after that, but they play all the big boys.

They play, I think, Aston Villa and the likes of Man City, and you try to pinpoint, as we were chatting before, where the wins are going to come from.

You plot it in your head.

I remember playing in front, and it wasn't the season we went down, but Alan Pardew came in at West Ham.

And it was the first time I've ever sort of done it officially.

And he came in and he used to give us cards and he'd give every single player a block of six fixtures.

And he'd go, right, it's going to be anonymous.

Your name's not going to be on there.

You can put what you want.

If you want to put six losses, you could put six losses.

No one will ever know.

So, of course, you get the six in and you go, I might draw that one.

Don't fancy us there.

And then in the end, you start putting loads of X's like you're going to lose and you think, well, I can't put that card in.

That looks a bit defeatist.

So then you just start lying and you go, yeah, we'll win at Anfield, we'll win at City, we'll win at United.

And all of a sudden it was just a shambles.
