@Dan, losing 3-0 to West Ham, know its a london derby and all, West Ham aren't doing well currently, was it embarrassing or the randomness of football?
If we play better against Man U, and get a result against Liverpool, then the brouhaha dies down, and we carry on until the next dip in form.
Season is a marathon, not a sprint and no team can escape from a few indifferent results, as a manager you've just got to make sure you don't let them snowball. Or let the media snowball you and your club so they can add grist to the media mill. It's just a story for them, and they will add as much pressure as they can to get the story they want. Which is right now:
AVB losing control of his players; making the same mistakes as he made at Chelsea; Spurs spent the money from Bale's transfer unwisely; and Levy was an idiot to appoint him in the first place.
The bookies odds, mean nothing in the great scheme of things.
What about all the talk about Moyes and Utd early in the season, or the mourinho buzz after their defeats. It'll pass as long as the results/performance improve. Its AVB's job to sort that out..
