Yes, Pulis may have got us into the position we are in, but unless he keeps us here then its all been for nothing. EVERYONE spotted weeks / months ago 2 things:
1. the defence was not playing as a unit and we could not continue to expect to score 3 goals a game to win matches
2. Creswell for all his endeavour is NOT a left midfielder
Pulis for whatever reason will not change either of these things. He needs to get over his stubborness before its too late. Yes we've been blessed with 2 utterly inept refs in the last 2 games but we deserved to lose on Tuesday and we deserve to be 2 down today. Pulis needs to sort these things NOW

U say that Cresswell isn't a left mid but he's 17th best player in the championship thsi season and practically every game he has been in at LM

Absolutely agree.I pointed out on this board well before the majority of you that Cort cant defend.Neither can Shawcross.Naive is not the word.They are not a partnership,
The refs we can moan about but thats not why we are losing right now.
47 GOALS CONCEDED - no chance if we continue in this vain

so if he is the 17th best player what could he be if he played in his PROPER position...drop sidibe for cressy and get gally on the left...aint brain science

Why is Pulis stubbornly ignoring the obvious?
Because he has no idea what Plan B means.
Because he sticks with players no matter how their form drops. It happens to all players at all clubs. GOOD managers deal with it accordingly.
Because he puts players in who are not fit, (Cort today), and accomodates others by playing out of form players (Fuller - I want Sidibe alongside me).
Because he is too stubborn to do anything different.
I've been saying all these things since he came back, but lately I've been silent simply because top of the table means I won't rock the boat.
However, this past week just emphasises his dearth of tactical nous.
Teams have sussed us out and we're going to struggle unless he develops a Plan B quickly.

Here we go  . The Pulis-bashing has started. Put things in perspective. We were looking good until a goal from nowhere knocked the wind out of our sails. We could still have pulled this back until that idiotic decision to send Griffin off. The boys played well in the second half and were unlucky not to get a couple back. We'll win the next game and pick ourselves up from this.  |

people said that after the Preston game Linx.
To be fair to those of us who don't like Plan A and never will, we've been largely silent for the sake of unity while the team has been doing well.
Furthermore, if you want him to be praised for taking us top, then he should also be responsible when we play as ineptly as today.
You can't have it both ways.
