Sam Allardyce

[bring the ghost on]

And there’s the issue. Acceptance of mediocrity

"For now" being the key words, Chris.

There is being ambitious and being deluded. When we were scraping round in the dirt conceding 4 goals per game, the important thing was not to think about champions league football, it was to make sure we got out of the relegation scrap ASAP.

What?? Is that a serious post

Jesus Christ

Go back to football manager mate with your chocolate button eyed managers with dimples, side partings and overcoats.

I’ll play it safe with Sam

Yet again. An embarrassment.

The fat mess won't ever change. This is his style and those who think he should be given time are deluding yourselves. This is standard Allardyce. We have this to look forward to.

Breaks my heart that he's everton manager. Fat. Fraud.

Jesus. We got spanked by Southampton 4-1 and Atalanta 5-1 in the two prior games. Unsworth was way out of his depth. I don't see any other struggling premier league teams jumping to offer him a contract.

I always thought we should have given him the job until the end of the season and then made a permanent appointment. Still of the same opinion and I don’t think he was out of his depth, inexperienced yes. Anyway it’s all a bit academic isn’t it.

That’s also because the majority of our players were busting a lung to catch up with play after defending so deep

Which wasn't the case today. It was always down to quality.

And those teams are below us....so that argument doesn't hold much water.

I do think there are teams like Palace and West Ham who have better squads than us and have been mis-managed.

I don't see any of our players having to be double marked like Zaha or be linked to going to the RS like Lanzini.

You honestly believe West Ham and Crystal Palace have better squads than us.

Because one players hit a bit of form and the other is being linked to the RS. Keane was being linked to utd, Sandro to Athletico???

That abysmal run of form had seen us take 7 points from 5 games, as opposed to the 5 we’ve got from our last 5. It’s the emperors new clothes and some of you think he’s working miracles, it’d be hilarious if it wasn’t so horrifying.

Gueye linked with arsenal last summer, siggy linked last summer with spurs, Sandro was wanted by athletico, united wanted Keane, Pickford would start ahead of two of the top 6 current keepers, Barkley is wanted by at least spurs and Chelsea.

Hahaha lad

I don’t own computer games, I’m not a virgin. I’ve actually seen us win trophies and felt that feeling that you probably havent

I’d kill for Palace front 3 right now. Zaha Benteke and Loftus

More manager than that fat crook who could have solved that

 

[MickA]

It’s not rocket science is it mate?! We played defensively under Koeman and didn’t look like we could score, now the same is happening under Allardyce.

I just hope the whole technical staff get a review. EFC reeks of nepotism when we should be installing the very best people we can into roles. People with the expertise and knowledge of the modern game. Long for the time we instill a coach that actually brings improvement individually and collectively.

Moshiri has the opportunity, I just hope he surrounds himself with the right advice.

 

[bring the ghost on]

Back to back home games without a shot on target, back to back away games where we were massively outshoot and outplayed and set out trying to nick a draw against teams the calibre and in terrible form in West Bromwich as and Bournemouth, nah think it's more than fair to be pissed off myself.

Fair to be pissed off? Yes.

Fair to turn on the manager? No.

He's only just come in and he's got us out of a proper rut.

I'm not a fan of the man and don't want him here long term but for gods sake, look at the mess he's inherited and the amount of money we've wasted on dross in the summer. There is nothing to be achieved by sacking him right now.

Dunno mate I wouldn’t mind double marking Keane when we’re defending!

Good for you

Christian Benteke who has a worse record than DCL this season by the way
