[WBA Will]

Hardly fair and not true that TP has destroyed the entire structure of the club. Terry Burton has gone, thank God, as most of his transfers in were useless, and Mervyn Day has gone as well. The two scouts who left have also carried the can for last summer's transfer activity for evidently making poor recommendations.
As for the team, the players have got to start taking chances. Morrison's spot-kick against Chelsea was a piss-poor penalty, and Rondon has to start putting his chances away, and when he does, things must get better, but I still think he seems expensive. All in all, 19 shots last night and only 4 on target isn't good enough when none of them went in.
We have to give TP the full transfer window, the only one he's had since joining Albion, and then we have to watch and take stock in mid-season, see where we are in the table and what the performances are like.

Sacking the head of recruitment and director of football during the summer transfer window with no intention of replacing them was purely done to give more power to TP, which is what he wanted the  whole time. If JP had intended to keep the structure, he could have brought in new people but it doesn't seem like he's tried. I admit that I didn't like Pulis before we gave him the job which has maybe meant I've got less patience with him than I've had with previous managers but I don't think anything will change dramatically. 


BaggyBomber, I did go to the game against Chelsea. I don't think it was that different. Endless aimless long balls fired up from Olsson which Chelsea dealt with easily for the most part. We only put them under any sort of pressure after they'd got a man sent off. We also looked incredibly vulnerable defensively so what was the point of our lack of attacking ambition?
