A lot is about mental strength and belief

You wake up and feel crap, you think about calling in sick for work.

You then get a message from another colleague that everyone's getting cash and shares from a takeover, you leap out of bed and can't wait to get to work.

Alot of it is installing this belief into players to be beyond their best.

Can only know if it's worked when you get to the prem. Some players and managers hold their nerve and achieve. Some aren't fit for the top and buckle under pressure.

If you have talented players it obviously dominates.

All the promotion teams are a total unknown. Fulham splashed the cash and then psychologically quit by the end of August.
