I didnt buy into the "hes not good enough to be our manager" motif because I really think that people have forgotten that football managers used to get promoted to big jobs years ago, before the Premier League era when a manager had to be "world class" to get a top English post but I could not possibly have envisaged the absolute shuck that we are playing at the minute, and like I said earlier he hasnt learned from the mistakes hes made this season and hes trying to implement tactics that are either ancient and unworkable in the modern game or instructions that have served him well at smaller clubs that he seems to believe will work at a side that has completely different aspirations than his previous club. Simply put, its failing miserably and it isnt a case of bad luck or dodgy decisions - the team is putting out performances that stink to high heaven and we know 100% that the players are capable of far better, but now Im not sure the manager is and for me thats why he has to go if we get embarassed at Goodison in a fortnight
