He then, upon his return last year, steered them away from the drop zone and they finished in a modest 16<sup>th<\/sup> position. Six of the seven games this term have been defeats with the only point coming in a 4-4 draw at Accrington Stanley, with the home side netting twice in stoppage time to deny Burton what would have been their only league victory this season.<\/p>\n<p>Hasselbaink previously said that he would take the decision upon himself to step away from the club if he felt he had become the problem.
