As you may know I posted that having KD back as manager would be a disaster?
Why? He is a man out of his time. His tactical nous last time was not great.
Most importantly of all the reputation of our great ever player and my childhood hero would be forever sullied.
It looks like I was right.
1:After 18 games we are already 14 points behind the leaders. Thus we are on target to be 30 points (at least) behind the league champions.
2:Anyone who thinks we will get a champions league spot is deluding themselves.
3:Awful out of date and inflexible tactics.
4:Only making substitutions about 70 minutes when anyone can see things are not working.
5:Piss poor transfers.
Andy Carroll is the worst transfer in our history if not the history of the league.
Adam is not good enough of athletic enough for a team with Champions League ambitions let along a title chasing team
Henderson. Is one hell of a potential. But we needed to add quality to our first team squad not spend a large sum on a player who will be top drawer in 2-3 years.
Downing. Good but not great and worth nowhere near £20m
We have wasted over £60m on Carroll, Downing and Adam. That is simply shocking.
6:Results
Drawing at home to Sunderland.
Losing away to Stoke,
Being humiliated by Spurs
Drawing at home to Norwich
Drawing at home to Swansea
Losing away to Fulham
Drawing away to Wigan
Drawing at home to Blackburn.
7:Anyone who thinks we will win the league under KD is deluding themselves.
8:Rafa would at the very least have guaranteed us Champions League football if he had £100m+ to spend.
Sadly I was right. This can only end very, very badly
