When Julen Lopetegui was paraded around the pitch before the Arsenal game in December it was clear he had a job on his hands. Rousing the beleaguered, paper thin squad he inherited and getting them over the line in any game felt like climbing Everest. But hope has quickly turned to belief in his short […]
