I'm more concerned about us retrograding under him, particularly at the back. Need much more solid performances up to Xmas. If there is no improvement then a change must surely come and we are back to getting a manager mid season to pull us out of the mire, the same position we were in when he joined. Presently we are not an established team in a very competitive league, so moving to the next step is in my opinion a little premature.

LOL ! These people do a good job and I don't decry their efforts or look down on them from a parapet.

Super Al has guided us to our second highest top league finish ever and an FA Cup Final and saved us from relegation. In 22 months.
It's just that you all seem to have forgotten. Just in case it's slipped your mind : 1. Super Al now has a squad with wages that are the 20th highest in Europe and 11th in the premier league. So in summary we have invested unprecedented amounts of money in transfers and wages and achieved the worst return in the whole of English football in 2016.

Its all just relative, not an entitlement to satisfy expectations.

I remember a charlton mate of mine saying this about Curbs. Now he admits he was wrong. I hope that our club doesn't make the same dreadful mistake. As hard as it is at times, building over a long period makes sense.

So we are playing quite well, Puncheon and Zaha are worrying their defence with good runs and balls into the box and there are two strikers in there causing them problems. One all. So what does our coach do? Takes one of them off and puts a squad midfielder on instead. Genius.
