Should have gone for Sean D from Burnley as Manager who would have selected our tried and tested formation which worked for him at Chelsea last Saturday. FdB was always going to be a gamble. Hope he turns things round quickly as he seems to be struggling after five first team games with his preferred style of play not just last Saturday. We are where we are. There's no point saying dyche would be good. We have to give de Boer the best chance to be successful.

Sam spent under £40m and that includes Sakho's loan fee. Schlupp - £9m

We had lots of games as bad and worse under SA Man UTDs second team beating us with ease was as bad as it gets. Sakho was the main cause of our better form along with Luka. By then we were safe, on the beach and Sam knew he was off.

I don't think FdB is a bad manager, just not the right one for us. The success of any manager depends on the tools available to him. I think FdB will fail because he isn't being given the funds to get the tools to do the job. If we do not improve and if we are in the bottom 3 come Christmas then I think the board are to blame not the manager and not necessarily the players. If someone is played out of position it isn't their fault. Steve Coppell, who many regard as a saint, always said you play the formation based on your player's strengths. If we're doing that then someone has a serious lack of judgement. To put it in simple terms, for those who might require it, you don't go racing in a transit van and you don't try to move a piano in a sports car.

To put it in simple terms, for those who might require it, you don't go racing in a transit van and you don't try to move a piano in a sports car. But Frank got the job, said his preferred formation, then says we have the players to play 3-4-3, but then plays 3 new players in it and needs another 3. And you're saying it's the board's fault if he's playing players out of position, and that's after playing players all summer in one position and then in different positions vs Huddersfield and indeed a completely new selection on the middle and right hand side. You say you play a formation to the players' strengths yet Frank hasn't yet but you say it's not his fault they're played out of position. Huh? Frank needs more money than we could get to do what he came to England, any club in fact to do. 'This year it's crystal palace' is what he said. Play 4 at the back or 3-5-2 and stop this facking about till it's feasible.
