This is so glaringly obvious that it shouldn't need saying and it's getting more obvious the longer Allardyce stays. Compare for instance the performance and the way we played the very next game at home to Huddersfield with the exact same team.

Yeah mate, i agree it's total and utter bollocks. Koeman did for us in the Europa and no one else.
Think he'll do a good job for you. He's got the makings of a top coach, hopefully he'll bring John Ebrell with him as they make a good partnership. He was shafted by the board in my opinion when he was in temporary charge. What's the current state of play with Oxford?

Isn't it really uncanny the way Allardyce went with the same team set up and formation for the next 4 games and we went on our only decent run of the season
It is indeed uncanny. I can only put it down to the fact that Allardyce is an experienced manager and he knows what he’s doing?!Isn't it really uncanny the way Allardyce went with the same team set up and formation for the next 4 games and we went on our only decent run of the season

That may be the case but the fact is they played out of their skins to impress the new guy in the stands. Take that away and we are just left with the same type of performances we had in the Lyon games.

Ironic then isn’t it that fat Sams finest moment to date owed everything to Unsworth’s training, team selection and in game management ?. Course everything else was down to Gravy boy.

The problem is we are comparing which brand of dog poo we would like to step in. Neither are the answer, well not with this team anyhow.
I strongly suspect West Ham were proper turd that night and we got lucky.
No managerial genius at play.
No managerial genius at play.
Off pitch the club is stable, our recent model has seen us bring in a fair amount of money through player sales after bringing on young players picked from PL academy's and reserve set up's.
Players like Kemar Roofe, Marvin Johnson & ex Everton John Lundstrum all netting around 6 million.
That model was scrapped under our Ex boss Ex Leeds coach, Pep Clotet. Who seemed intent on bringing any random overseas players linked to ex clubs of his.
Derek Fazackerley Is in charge now and it's pretty obvious he and Clotet fell out over the players our ex gaffer got in and it's him who is working on the new players and shifting out some of the dead wood left behind.
Still he's got the bullet and now we are once again going back to our old network of bringing in youngsters. Recently signed 2 promising Man City lads till the end of the season with views to a permanent fanfares.
All this links us back to Unsworth and why, for me, he'd make a cracking fit for Oxford.
We are very well respected by clubs higher up the chain when It comes to the development of young players. So Unsworth would only improve those links being as well respected with you as he is.
P.S - Got any spare young lads who will be up for a move? Ledson is still friends with a few of your youth set up and is often back in Liverpool so he can put in a good word!

To be fair he’s used every single combination of players in every single position since though.......except left back.

He needs to and I hope he's successful, I'll be keeping an eye on how they go now because hopefully this blue is the new pep and comes back when he's boss
Ryan Ledson will be gutted if unsworth goes to you mate, but there can always be a fresh start, clean slate etc.
