Optimistic Nut Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 One positive, since we've been in the Premiership, 1 successful manager here has been followed by 2 unsuccessful ones. KEEGAN - (Dalglish) - (Gullit) - ROBSON - (Souness) - (Roeder) - ALLARDYCE? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted April 30, 2007 Share Posted April 30, 2007 Actually, that's just given me a thought there. When Dalglish came in, that Keegan team had no doubt reached it's peak. I know we sold the likes of Ferdinand & Ginola, but if you look at other key players from that Keegan team (Srnicek, Albert, Watson, Beresford, Howey, Peacock, Lee [still good but nowhere near the player he was] & Batty),were nowt like the players they were in the previous 2-3 years, and it was always going to be a tough job for whoever came in. That manager went then in came Gullit who had the tough challenge of trying to get us back into the top 6...he failed. However, both managers left a foundation for Robson to build on. Players like Given, Dabizas, Speed, Hughes who'd broke into the side, Solano, Dyer, Shearer etc...something where 2 or 3 signings of quality would turn us into a pretty good side. In came the likes of Bellamy, Robert, Distin, Jenas & Woodgate and look what happened. Top 4 again. However, just like under Keegan before him, the team had reached it's peak and no matter who came in was going to find it tough. Just like with Dalglish & Gullit, two new men tried and failed, but for someone like Allardyce, again, with 2-3 signings there's something to play with. Players brought in like Emre, Parker, Owen, Martins & Duff all have ability. Add to that, and have a manager with a bit of tactical nous about him, and maybe Allardyce will follow Keegan & Robson?

We have to hope so. I am convinced that we have a decent squad of players that with the odd tweak here and there, can challenge the top 6 spots.
