Zaha, Benteke, Sako, Cabaye and Townsend - better than Long, Redmond, Ward-Prowse - and arguably better than Tadic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But saying that we should have smashed Arsenal - they are not good this season, we could beat them at the Emirates, our rivals are improving but so are we this will be tight. I expect us to pick the form up this and next month. Are we improving? So far this month we have been beaten by Palace, thrown away three points against Watford because our manager went defensive at 2-0 up, scraped through two cup ties in poor performances, and drawn at home against Spurs, perhaps the only reason you could say we're improving, but as we've seen this season we've drawn against big boys before and wasted the next game. We've not won a league game since Everton in November, and even they were in dire straits. I genuinely struggle to see much of an improvement under this manager and I fear for relegation. I really hope we can beat both Brighton and West Brom but even then we're far from safe, and I fear it just prolongs the inevitable. Not that I can see it happening... Unfortunately if we do get round to sacking our manager this season, it will be far too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

austsaint Posted 30 January, 2018 Share Posted 30 January, 2018 Really? I think all but zaha have been pretty poor. Sako better value for money but the others have been pretty useless. JWP is the exact opposite of Townsend. No pace, no dribbling, can actually cross. Odd to compare them to Long and Redmond though rather than Tadic, Boufal, Gabbiadini, Austin and Carrillo isn't it. Also strange you'd judge it all on short term form. Not when they had De Boer. Were they good then too? If so, is there not a chance...a small chance, that our players who've all performed well in this league before, might actually be good under a decent manager??? People seem so eager to make excuses for Pellegrino in the face of all evidence. Bizarre. I'm not making excuses for Pellegrino - he should have been binned 6 weeks ago. Boufal, Austin, Gabbiadini and possibly Tadic all good enough in attack, when played in their right positions and managed better. I'm saying Long and Redmond aren't good enough compared to the CP players I've mentioned and JWP played in that wide right position doesn't have enough pace, width and run to compensate for the few good crosses that come in. Carillo is too soon to call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
