In normal circumstances I’d give Unsworth a go, I.e. if we were in mid table with a bit of a cushion. There is plenty I like, he knows the club inside out, been successful at the level he has been tested at, has a genuine love for the club and something not many have picked up on is he is committed to youth and transitioning those players into the first team on Sunday we had Kenny, DCL, Lookman, Benny Bigtime, Davies all on the pitch at certain points. Really only Dowell was missing from the World Cup winning team.
In reality though if he gets it in the current context I think it’s risky, it’s far from my first choice and I will be concerned if he gets it. He has got the team relatively up for a few games but can he do it week in week out in his first job in the PL. Young players will peak and dip, he will have to turn to senior and more established players in the squad at some point. While for us to get out of this we need someone who will maximize the players ability we have in a very skilled way, whether he can do that at this early stage in career is debatable.
Huge risk in my opinion and I wouldn’t do it.
