    Come on GLM - it’s been two league games and a ****ty cup competition for **** sake!! We were not bad in the two league games considering huge changes!! In answer to your question - who is not up to standard??? The only question mark is Zahore And yes he does not look good but would you judge Messi on two crap games?

    Get a grip and start moaning after 12 games if we are doing crap. I am more positive this season than any other although had Gayle been in our side, we could easily be favourites for promotion and do what two numpties failed to do last year - Dawson - Gayle - Barnes and and Jay Rod all of which are in the Premier League!

    You are way off course again, all I asked was how much input does Bilic have in taking these players on, not a thing about his quality as a manager.

    I would say the same input as the recruitment of Burke! Bilic has a huge job - no Dawson - no Gayle - no Barnes - no Jay Rod all of which are playing in the Premier League plus other huge changes.

    We need to do some sums - how much money has come into the club v money spent including big wages off the payrole? Once done - if two numpties could not manage promotion then we must appreciate Bilic has a mountain to climb!

    Bilic also has Burke ( useless ) and Brunt who is another year older, and the worst keeper seen for a long time! That said, I have enjoyed the first two games with almost a whole new team, as opposed to going to the Vile in the play offs where the tactic was to sit back and waste time even in the first half.

    I am very positive under Bilic but the downfall will be the goals from a ruthless striker like Gayle!
