Thats bullshit... Still achieved 5th last year which is as good as most managers have in the 20 years. At the same time we got to a cup final and improved a number of the players at his disposal:
Kane
Mason
Bentaleb
Rose
Eriksen
Chadli
Half the first team squad were quickly deemed not good enough or fitting for his style of play and are now out of the club. Getting what he did out of the squad considering we had one striker that performed and at times last year a CB playing RB and a couple of young kids playing cm should be seen as an achievement. Personally I'll judge him once we have the squad assembled and he has successfully integrated more of the younger players that look likely to get a shot this year.
Some people just love to moan and call for a managers head. No doubt you wanted Jol and Redknapp gone as well thinking there was better out there. Seeing what Poch got out of the Southampton squad that actually had some pace about them I'm looking forwards to seeing us introduce players like N'Jie and hopefully Berahino.
I was genuinely gutted when we lost both of those guys and still feel they were better than Poch, AVB and Ramos.
With the exception of Mason all those players were performing to a high standard under Sherwood along with Ade, What happened with the Miracle coach who could spin sugar from shit? We keep replacing defenders yet the results are the same no matter who is back there, Poorly organised with no bollocks.
Poch has his man in charge of scouting if we are to believe the papers yet the players we have got in still look scared and clueless and the ones that remain from last year still cannot seem to understand their roles within the system.
I wonder if Poch is still here next season how many of this years crop will be leaving
