Ok lets be fair, we played them they had a makeshift back 4 and played badly in general as their bubble had just burst, I think he is a good manager and lets face it they are as high as they can be but they have spent millions and have 3 or 4 of a very talented group of young hungry (emphasis on hungry) english players so maybe should be pushing newcastle, but they are about right in the league
Levy has taken his gamble with Tim, Poch would have been the same offsetting certain skills with others, end of the day if Tim doesnt work out we know we need an established name (if available) managing our very expensive squad as maybe we are looking at it the wrong way, if Tim can get this much with no experience out of players he supposedly barely knows, imagine what someone with pedigree could do.
For now though we support Tim who we know will do his best and hope we dont have to have the same discussion again in 4 months
