Interestingly, Silva has the lowest number of points after his first 23 league games out of our previous 5 managers.

Moyes = 23 games - 39 points

Martinez - 23 games - 42 points

Koeman = 23 games - 37 points

Allardyce - 23 games - 34 points

Silva = 23 games - 30 points

Now I know a season isn't 23 games long... but wow. I was someone who wanted Silva in charge, but that's shocking and not good enough - especially considering he has had arguably the best squad. Was gonna post this in the Silva thread but thought it was deserving of its own. Sue me.

No way the best squad. Roberto has the best squad, which benefitted from the addition of the first top class striker we have had in years. Bobby had a settled well-drilled team, whereas Silva has a bunch of individuals. Of course he should be getting better results, just think the context is lacking.

Yeah, but Moyes was the top-rated young coach in British football at the time. He was only in his 30s mind. Bobby too was well regarded, and fairly young, and had just won the FA Cup.

If anything we are paying for trying to act “big time” by poaching Koeman and Silva.
 
I hate to break it to our fan base, but there’s absolutely nothing big time about Ronald Koeman or Marco Silva.

Think the only manager we've appointed from above us is Mike Walker. Kendall came from lowly Blackburn, Lee from Newcastle, Royle from Oldham... We've always had a manager inferiority complex.

This squad is nowhere near as good as the one Martinez had in season 1.

Nowhere near.
 
I mean we’ve got this habit of hiring crap small time managers so it’s not really surprising is it?

Maybe if we stopped going for the ones who get relegated/sacked from everywhere they’ve been/have nothing to suggest they’re anything special on their CV things might change.

Perhaps if we also left the footballing matters to footballing people, instead of a man who truly believed that Romelu Lukaku left us to join the most successful club in the country because a voodoo witch doctor told him to we would be a bit better off too.
