Be interesting to find out his comments....

Before the season started.

Was anyone saying we had a s**t squad before the season started.

All I saw was our transfer business being universally praised and lauded.

Even Ipswich fans like Bloom thought we won the transfer window.

Why is everyone an expert after the event but few before the event.

Saying all that, it's always about the players who so far have either been injured or not good enough.

No sugar coating the fact we have been terrible.

Knapper may indeed not be good enough as he is totally unproven at his job.
I think he made an honest attempt this year to bring in lots of players to have a deep squad.
The irony is, it still seems the cheaper/free players have worked out better than the ones we paid a lot for.
Something we have become masters of for some strange reason over the past 10+ years.
