I preferred the lambert era football; relentlessly effective

But he hit the jackpot here taking on a league 1 team with Wes hoolahan in it and grant holt. He’s done nothing of note since signing benteke, and even that probably wasn’t him.

He was a great manager for us, but he’s not a great manager. There’s no reason to think he’ll deliver any success there. Unless they stump up some cash for him (no chance) he’ll scratch around just as he did at Villa, Blackburn, wolves and stoke.
