Koeman or Allardyce

[Groucho]

Also Allerdyce is yet to put a team out for a single minute of football, quick to judge as usual I see.

He also didn’t get us into this state. He’s here to get us out of it.

Koeman destroyed the club.

This in a nutshell.

I'll never ever forgive him or forget what he's done.

Exactly mate.

To ask "who was better?" at this stage is pointless.

I think if Koeman was still in charge then we would have more points now than we do. I don’t think he had lost the dressing room and he certainly would have kept us up.

Allardyce is just very unlikeable and regardless of what happens he will leave us worse off. It’s what he does. Can’t stand to see him take credit if we finish 17th.

Basically, Koeman all the way.

We've all seen the tactics employed at Bolton, West Ham, Blackburn, Newcastle. He has a brand of football and take's exception to it being challenged. If the last 15 years evidence and the quote below doesn't send out the warning signs I don't know what would.

Allardyce's appointment at Upton Park was greeted with muted enthusiasm by supporters in 2011, who were concerned at his reputation for playing direct football.

Although he stabilised West Ham in the Premier League, fans never particularly took to him and he left at the end of last season, after a poor run of results left the club in the bottom half of the table.

Sam Allardyce did not enjoy his time at West Ham

Now Allardyce has returned fire on those supporters in his new book Big Sam, accusing them of being misguided - and that their demands made players unhappy.
"My 'long ball' label was started by Graeme Soumess, who got upset whenever I beat him when he was at Blackburn or Newcastle, and was picked up by Arsene Wenger and Rafael Benitez.

"As soon as I was appointed West Ham manager in 2011 the big debate was whether I would follow the 'West Ham way', which nobody could define but, whatever it was, I apparently didn't play it.

"I felt the West Ham way was about wearing your heart on your sleeve and showing passion for the club and winning.

"But the fans were being brainwashed into thinking that, historically, the club had a particular style of play which was akin to Barcelona, which was potty.

"I once called the supporters deluded and I stand by that. I don't know who invented the 'West Ham way' phrase, but it's a millstone around the club's neck.

"I've talked to my predecessors Alan Curbishley, Alan Pardew and Harry Redknapp and they got it in the neck from the crowd as much as I did.

"None of the players would admit it, but they used to sit in the dressing room at half-time going: 'Listen to them, never f------ happy, slaughtering us all the time.'

""The fans won't turn up if West Ham are playing fantasy football and losing 5-3 every week. Slaven Bilic is the new man in the hotseat and good luck to him. He will need it."
