It takes at least a season to build a side that will compete at the top end of the table but with the way queens work the players are gone after one season or less. He's fighting a fight here with both hands tied behind his back and imo Alex Ferguson or klopp couldn't have done much better with the constraints he has had. Until this policy of penny pinching at every turn stops we will never be in a position to build a successful side. If it's about survival then so be it. How can he be criticised for that when we are still in the championship and showing an improvement but it's success we are all wanting and until the purse strings are opened to allow two year contracts etc then the success will have to wait and surviving is all we should be happy with and the manager is doing that so far
