It's kind of respectles to say.

He was apointet to keep us up in the PL.
Now he's not sure.

He play snide and don't close the right side gap. Besides that, his starting 11 and formation, is Koeman all over again.

But it's true, he most likely won't be able to keep us in PL.
Not the way he is doing it.
 

In fact what club spends 45 million on new attackers, rescues a draw against West Brom at home and then says this?

It's embarrassing now. We look exactly what we are, a club with more money than sense .
 
If he is so worried about performances and the like why does he constantly pick the same players? If he is worried about our defending why not get a LB and CB insted of a striker and winger? If he doesn't get why we can't connect defense and attack why a) not get someone in who can do that and b) maybe not have 40 yards between his midfield and attack with nobody who can carry the ball on the pitch?

I wouldn’t say we were at the minute, think those comments might be an attempt to get a reaction from the players, more than anything else.

If we beat Leicester we’re 3 points behind them & everyone’s attention turns to whether we can catch them.

If not, we’ve got enough favourable games in the run in to pick up points, think we play the majority of the teams below us and we’ve probably got an easier run in than most.

Your last paragraph would have merit,if you hadn't watched Saturdays effort.
 
We need a manager that has the bottle to say it like it is and that is that we should never have bought Rooney or Sigy. I wouldnt play either of them rooneys legs and lack of discipline regaring his positioning on the pitch makes him a liability. Sigy does seem to offer anything other than work rate and ser pieces. We need some one with a left foot ahead of martina as both want to cut in on to the right foot and leave us exposed.

The fact we havent signed a left back is joke. Its the biggest issue with our current system and will be exposed until something changes.

If we are going to play this negative football then id go for a 433 with lookman and walcott either side of Tosun and the have gana, schnedrline and davies in centre mid with davies breaking forward to support the front 3.
 

Pretty sure he's just lowering expectations now.

If we drop down the table or get relegated he'll be a footballing genius and can say "told you so"

If we improve and don't drop down the table he'll be a footballing genius and can say "look I saved us"

Or maybe he's trying to inspire some passion in the players but he'd have an easier time finding a pair of balls in a nunnery than in our squad.

Saturday was poor mate, but we're in poor form and West Brom have picked up abit of form recently.

All we need is a win and the club gets a lift. Last season Allardyce's Palace won 1 in 10 after he took over. Then they scraped a 1-0 against Boro before winning 6 of their next 8, beating Chelsea away, Arsenal 3-0 and Liverpool at Anfield.

The season before his Sunderland side lost 2 of their last 14, winning at Chelsea and beating us 3-0 to stay up. Both them & Palace were in far worse positions than we are now and both finished with thougher run ins than ours this season.
