But how many chances has he actually had?
Sheffield United - spent next to nothing, relegated by a late penalty and a Carlos Tevez goal away to man united on the last day. Tevez hadn’t even been registered for West Ham and they got sued for £24million. Very unlucky.
QPR - struggled but wasn’t really allowed to sign anyone. Won 3 away games in his short time there, Hughes kept them up but only won 1 away game the whole rest of the season.
Palace - appointed on the 27th of August after Pulis did a runner. Sacked on 27th December. Had a bit of a nightmare but with no pre season and transfer window. Isn’t blamless but conditions weren’t exactly ideal.
In summary, while he isn’t the best ever premier league manager he’s hardly done as poorly as everyone has made out.
