Allardyce was basically brought in to make us harder to beat and to build on that. With the exception of the Liverpool game we look a lot worse, not better. To my mind the players don't look as if they have a clue as to what system we are playing, that is if we are playing to a system. I realise that as fans we are looking at things from the outside but to me the players and the manager don't seem to be 'reading from the same page'. There doesn't appear to be a connection. Perhaps I'm wrong but it looks that way to me.
