I said it hadn't improved much, rather than it hadn't improved full stop. I agree with what you've said there, as I said in my reply to Cotter. Of all the expectations I had of Rafa when he arrived, the highest was of a return to good pass and move football which had completely disappeared under Houllier. Maybe my disappointment on that score is leading me to downplay the progress that has been made.
