Be patient
You’re not going to take over the world in five games, Rome wasn’t built in a day, all the other sayings that mean be patient!
You might beat Manchester United 6-0 and then lose 4-1 to West Bromwich Albion. It’s part of the game.
Even if you make the correct adjustments, games will sometimes just go against you.
Your centre-back might have a shocker. Don’t be hard on yourself. Learn from what went wrong and if it was a tactical thing, you can fix it. Carry the lesson forward with you.
If it was individual error, well, everyone can have a Dejan Lovren moment.
