Allardyce

He'll be gone anyway at seasons end. The bloke was brought it for one reason only, survival and that is where he fails. He was always going to fail. Yesterdays man was never an acceptable replacement but would anybody have saved us?

To not go for it and throw everything forward was a mistake, 0-0 did as much good for us as, say, 0-6. You can’t always prioritize clean sheets, but BS always does.

As for HRK, I can def see what he brought to games, before, and I stress the past tense. After the ”Corona break” last spring, I haven’t seen him bring anything to games, quite invisible every time he comes on.

But to be fair, all of our so called forwards are quite abysmal.

That's a fair post Swedish. For me Fat Sam was going on and on about tiredness and it not being fair. But apart from the last 7 minutes he played the same team as Thursday! That's two poor games inside three days for Pereira - can he pass - can he take a corner? Whilst Phillips was better - he's a poor player for me. Why did he not play any of these three from the start today - Snodgrass, Grosicki or Grant? Diagne does miss quite a few but to be fair he's not had much service and would always look more likely to score than anyone else - although that's not saying much!

In summary apart from Sheffield - West Brom and Newcastle are the two other worst teams in the division. Yes we have improved but still look like a relegation team.

PS - only two players of real Premier quality and that's Gallagher and Okay. I still don't see Johnstone as Premier although overall he's done a great job. All the others including Pereira, Grant, Diangana are simply not good enough!

Harsh - don't think so!
