Good points, mate. In this whole fiasco this is one of the (many) points that is getting under my skin!
I have not followed what he has done that closely to pretend that I know what sort of footy he will try to get us to play, so it is a hypothetical I could be wrong over. But I was pretty sure that he was ultra defensive most of the time. So while I can sympathise with a manager struggling to get these players to play much front foot footy, I don’t see him as a guy who is likely to do much of that anyway, even if we get more of that sort of player in over the next couple of windows. So the thought of travelling to the four corners of the country to watch a variant of Allardyce’s footy, produced by a guy whose managerial persona I am not that keen on is not exactly what I had hoped for in 21-22 season!!
