WBAUnofficial

I have previously posted that he has made us worse in every aspect. However, after some thought, I have to say that I am wrong and he is due some credit for the following improvements:

His non-tackling/avoiding any sort of 50/50 challenges has reduced our number of red and yellow cards and also meant that essential players such as Livermore, Gibbs and Sawyers have avoided injury.

He has reduced the number of times we give the ball away with his policy of reducing possession to the bare minimum.

He has reduced the number of off-target shots - these are clearly a waste of time.

Our average throw in distance has increased significantly.

Sam Johnstone has improved due to all the practice he’s getting.

Positive Covid test numbers are down due to adherence to social distancing rules within our penalty area.

I’m sure there are many more positives he’s brought to us.....

Silver linings...

We get to call somebody King Kong too!

We need to get S-S to create a politically correct nickname for him 

With our slack 4 we have no chance.

I unrealistically thought he would only have come having been promised around £20-£30m (what he had at Palace), but he obviously wasn't.

If he had the funds I am sure he would have replaced all 4 of them.

I was resigned to relegation after our summer signings, so change there.

I honestly cannot blame BS for any of the shit we are in.

No investment in the defence, no improvement.

They were just above average in the championship.

This really is bang on.

Let's face facts, Klopp, Pep and Mourinho all together with Wenger and Ferguson in advisory roles, wouldn't be able to train our excuses for footballers to do the simple basics.

Yep.

Amidst the celebrations I, along with a few others on here, saw the junk that we were bringing up and the lack of investment. And it was over at that point.
