To me, the quote isn’t referencing continuous improvement tweaks - the “solution” he’s referring to is what’s necessary to win games and, ultimately, the cup. With draft luck they’ve had, the “solution” should be in the room. Instead, they still don’t have it by their former coach’s own admission through this quote.
IMO, it’s a great encapsulation of the total failure of that organization to capitalize on their prior years of combined failure and blind luck.
