    Puel made them look far better than Pellegrino has.

    Still wasn't great is my point. I want Pellegrino gone, but I also blame the players

    Jeez, just seen Kane’s goals on Sky. Unmarked for both & and don’t tell me “good movement”. I despair. Can’t do much more of this.

    606 and Saintsweb both harmonious in Pellegrino needing to be sacked? (albeit 606 a bit more sensible) Sounds like Pellegrino needs to be sacked.

    It all goes back to the simply crazy impatient and unfair decision to sack Puel,
    Puel got more out of the team last season despite a tough fixture schedule and long term injuries to key players, we would've improved under him this season IMO.

    Which is why I think what we need NOW is someone with PL experience to TRY and keep us up .

    For Puel it was the players not suiting Puel imo. Although i simply don't rate Pellegrino. Pure downgrade on Puel.

    This is embarrassing. The goals we have conceded this season have been so poor. For all his negative and defensive mentality, Pellegrino’s team have gifted goals away.

    Let’s hope Santa didn’t throw his sack away. He needs to give it to someone soon.

    Can’t see many realistic candidates to replace though...

    Spurs are playing like it has never even occurred to them that we might be capable of giving them a game. We on the other hand have turned up to lose and apparently not by one or two either, seems our lads will be ok with shipping a few in this one. Only PEH and Romeu really playing with any heart.

    Are you referring to the first half of this game or the first half of the season?

    For having "a very good team" they haven't shown much in 2yrs now. Comes a time you have to think some players have attitude problems and need getting rid. Then add that to players who have become ****, it all adds up

    I don't buy the Puel thing at all. Attitudes and players being **** is the problem. Then add Pellegrino and we have what we got now

    Not wumming, would you be happy with an absolute drubbing today if it gets your manager sacked? I used to feel like that with Terry Fenwick and it worked eventually.

    Doesn't help that almost all of our 'big' landmark signings to cement our 'big team status' have tanked. Bofal has had a bit of form but highlighting him as our best signing in recent years definitely indicates that our little black box is broken.

    Bad, weak management allows bad attitudes to breed.
