No he should have been sacked 6 months earlier

I wanted his appointment and he had a fantastic first 6 months then lost it. After that he had no idea how to turn it round.

Spent every week saying things like they have better players than us so we need to keep it tight. When we were at home to the bottom side in the league......

I genuinely thought he was one of the worst managers we'd ever had by the end.

I'm really pleased he's done so well since. I do think though that he's only suited to sides on the up. His innate cautiousness was a disaster for us And I think would be for any side that is struggling in the prem
