Sam Allardyce

[Stutheblue]

Mid table medoicrity is best we can expect (at this point in time). 5 minutes of pressure in the 2nd half at home. Very very disappointing. Thing is, what can we expect of Sam next season? 'More of the same'
is the obvious answer.

It is partly Chris. They are very much part of the problem.

But Sam is a master in destroying squads with aging , talentless wastes of space at over value, so that's great.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG???

The players maybe gash for what we’d expect, but they’d walk into teams that are below us, and some above us

Having people like bolasie and Vlasic more concerned with playing fullback tells us all we need to know about Fat Sam

Can we have some perspective here please? I know a lot are fuming and some on here are practically having a tug about how bad we are but let's wake up. This season has been a write off since October and this side is woeful. All Big Sam is here for is to keep us up and he'll do that easily. Could we of got sombody else to do that? Probably but I doubt they'd of excepted the short term deal Allardyce has. As others have pointed out the 18 months on his contract means nothing, all it means is that he'll get a nice big pay off when he's shown the door in May. Hopefully half the players will follow him. We can talk about standards, expectations and ambitions next season once we've guaranteed our premier league status this season.

Thanks Rory, at least some media lovy is prepared to question this fraud

He has a bottom half mentality, that's the top and bottom of it.

Koeman or Fat Arse Unsy don’t get a pass from me. But having 4 shots on target in 5 games, camping 9 men behind the ball and having no intention to commit is totally unacceptable.

And his “defensive” king pin tactics is starting to unravel at proof that he massively rode his luck in his first couple of games

He is a limited manager and we all knew that. He would have to be an actual miracle worker to have this "team" that couldn't string two passes together in the first half of the season actually playing somewhat expansive, entertaining football. No one thought it would be pretty, and if they did they are badly delusional.

It's a shame that fans like @matty1878 would see Everton drop like a stone in order for his anti Allardyce agenda to come to fruition.

I suspect relegation is the aim for Matty if it meant he could say he told us so. Pretty horrible really.

No because if we got relegated it would end us. Sams been brought in to just do opposite to that. The told you so is his football and tactics. West Ham and Newcastle got rid of him for those reasons.

To be fair mate, we did create more problems to utd today than we did against wba Bournemouth combine. He is somehow making players move around more to receive passes in a favourable passing angle, especially first half. We had more options to launch an attack but the final crosses were abysmal today.

Second half were same old inferior sitting back tactics before they score.

 

[goodisonopheliac]

Even Guardiola couldn't save this team. Maybe we should do a swap with City, like on Wife Swap.

" Simon Coleman "

LOL.

 

[Tin-Tin]

All the teams down the bottom dont have goalscorers but are still creating chances/having shots - there is no excuse and after the Liverpool & Spurs games them stats will only get worse.

Massive difference between expansive and entertaining football to actually looking like troubling the keeper.

His tactics of crowding the edge of our box scraped a couple of results, it’s now gone tits up.

Apart from Swansea we’ve never really looked like scoring. It’s a absolute bollocks that he was the only option, and even worse to think that a different manager couldn’t get something out if our attacking options.

Ermm... Hold on ....

What the absolute?!?!!

Dread to think about the rest of the season if we dont get a striker in
