I learnt from the unbeaten run that our defensive organization was poor and our build up play was poor. A few of us said similar, focusing on the tactics rather than merely the results, and were concerned that there were big problems that would catch up with the team. It isn't surprising at all what's happening, now our luck and honeymoon period have run dry, we aren't getting away with it as we were earlier in the season. I'm surprised it took a while for our poor performances and the above stuff I mentioned to be reflected in the results.
It's true that you need to give him time and an extra transfer window or two will help, but he still needs to be judged to some standards, it's not a free-for-all even in a transition season. After half a season you need to see an idea of what he's trying to do and some signs of progress. You can't just blame personnel, yes the squad needs quite a bit of work, but you should be able to better organize a defense and improve your build up play with the squad that we have, which is still top 6 quality.
