We were a joke under Allardyce until the new signings were in and able to play. The first match that all of the new signings were available was the Spurs game. Before that it was 5 points from 9 matches including hammerings by Villa, Leeds, Arsenal and Man City. Also a cup defeat to Blackpool.
Since the new signings were included it has been 9 points from 8 matches and 3 clean sheets. Goal return is still low with 7 in 8 matches but defensively it is 7 goals shipped in 8 which is solid for a team in our position.
That highlights the impact that the new signings have had, how poor the team was before the 4 new players, how piss-poor Allardyce's work was with the squad that he inherited and how he has finally been able to turn us into a ok team that still has a chance of staying up.
