    Unfortunately what with the problems what we've got we've tried to get higher up the pitch to chayge and try a score a goal
    If we possibly can, BUT unfortunately we've been caught too high up the pitch and it's that balance and that's the premier league it's always going to be difficult let's try and enjoy it

    He'll probably get another free excuse pass. Player injured in warmup, red card, unfair penalty against/blatant pen for denied

    His presser was 13 mins of excuses and setting up excuses.

    We can talk tactics all we want but the simple fact is we don’t have the engine in the middle of the pitch.

    I still maintain we have the defence and we have the attack with Wilson and miggy and asm supporting.

    It’s our CM that is the problem. We have the most pedestrian midfielders in the PL.

    Look, I think I've managed nearly 500 games in the Premier League, which is something like 11 years," he added.

    So that’s 45 games a season Steve.

    Look when what it's how we approach it tactically we've got to get that balance and see what if we can score a gawl if we possibly can. Let's try and enjoy it

    The sound of his voice makes me want to throttle him. It pises me off that is getting a free ride because no fans are at games. He needs to be verbally abused in person to make him understand that he is not wanted.

    Look I'm not everyone's cup of tea, but that's the world we're in, we've got yo accept it.. We've been better and drew with arsenal in the 1st half.

    Unfortunately we're in the bottom half and that's where we have been for 15 years and we've been without arguably our best player. We're trying to change it eguch can't be done overnight, so let's dust oursekves down and get on with it.

    It’s a shame it’s a game of two half’s. Oh and Steve we didn’t win the first half either.

    He will never get another job in management after this. Not in this country.

    Look Keith the one thing I've always said is I want to play a certain way and in particular vs arsenal and in the Cup we've been unfortunately caught to high up the pitch and thats that little bit of a balance we've got to get right, so far we've so ok there's a determination and a resilience which is good to see

    Sad thing is he probably will, there will always be a mid table championship side or a relegation threatened Premier league side who will take him on.

    People like Allardyce, Pulis, Bruce have built their careers around these kind of clubs.

    I think we've all experienced working with an absolute tool who ends up on their final warning, repeatedly save their jobs, before walking in to another job and you think how are you still employed. Then they move on to a position of higher power and carry on and they're still an absolute helmet years later.
