I think people expect us to play a bit better this year than we did last year

and yes, they want to see a return on the investment. But I don't think anyone was expecting us to be challenging for Europe or anything. In fact, most would probable be happy if we came 13th and played some decent football.

But that doesn't look like happening right now.
