He has also mentioned several times recent interviews

That he has made some mistakes, or would do things differently, maybe he is alluding to the summer transfer business.

Worthy tried to replace, the players that got him up when we all said Iwan and Malky at least should have been given a chance. Farke has done that with the players now, it hasn't worked either, when many of us thought we do OK before the season started. Its a funny ole game Saint!
