Belgium was at this same point around 2010. I think what you need to accept is that once you slide down this far, you cannot hope to fix it in one qualifying cycle. You need slow, incremental progress. We went from not even be close to qualifying for World Cup 2010 to almost getting the play-off spot for Euro 2012 to qualifying as group winners for World Cup 2014. But you can't go straight from abject failure to success.
