Some of you thought we had gems in Caulker, Frashier and Mutch. We didn’t. We lost more than half our team going down, and it needed replacement. In the premier league Ole was given 7,5 million budget to save the train wreck from relegation. I’m sure Klopp couldn’t do it!

You judge the three players by using what happened after they left us against him and you big up Ole based on what he’s done since he left us. With the players and Ole, you’re not judging them by what they did in the first nine months of 2014.

All his time here, he was switching and patching holes. Trying to fight the polarity within the club and finding a first 11 good enough. I’ve said this before, Ole has a clear vision on how to play football. He has written a seriously good piece on it once. But he is versatile enough to se he has to have the tools to do it. Just like he has shown at UTD. Would you be happy if he had set us up like Malay?

Squad and playing his way takes time.. More than seven games with players who needed guidance and time to gel.

Do you remember the Ben Turner interview? It’s a decade of players giving him credit mate. A decade. When can you lot admit you where wrong?
All any of that does is confirm that it was a tough job he took on, but his record, in the Premier League in Mackay’s case and Championship in Slade’s case, was worse than the men who came before and after him. You denigrate Mutch, Caulker and Campbell, but the first named was good for us that season we sold him at a profit, Caulker had his off field issues and was not perfect on it, but he didn’t do badly and we got our money back oh him, while Campbell did okay I thought under the circumstances and we got our money back on him when Palace matched a release clause in his cootract. How many of the multitude of players Ole brought in did we sell at a profit or the fee we paid for them?

Sorry, but your srgument regarding his tactics comes over as feeble, but, to be fair, I’d say it’s hard to appear anything else given the overwhelming evidence you have to argue against.
