It takes 3 or 4 games at least to get the players onside with new ideas, though Everton had a crap defence a few seasons back when Allardyce suddenly made them a lot better when he took over just before we played them. Think he had a bit more than a couple of days prep before we played them and we weren't a Man City either. Don't think 4 games is enough to save them, unless it's on goal difference.
