To be balanced - Let's give credit to Pulis for keeping us up comfortably for 2 years on the trot after inheriting a rubbish side which looked destined for the drop. I think it's fair to say that he's done the job he was pulled in to do.
However, now the big money is coming, it's time to move on...
The football is absolute dross and we've been riding our luck in recent weeks to pick up any points at all. With the age of our squad we need a complete overhaul and I doubt Pulis is good enough in the transfer market to replace the likes of McAuley, Olsson, Mozza, Sessegnon, Saido and the like, who will all be on their way soon for one reason or another.
With the exception of Evans and Fletcher, who came with lots of game time for United, Pulis' signings have been dross. McLean is a lower league kick and rush merchant. Chester cost big money but is unproven in any position in a back 4 and looks bog average. Lambert was a complete waste of time given that our style of play involves a forward just running around for 90 minutes. Lindegaard must be one of the highest earning 3rd choice goalkeepers in the league.
McManamanan and Rondon have shown glimses but neither are really suited to Pulis' style.
Overall a lot spent with not a great deal of improvement. Now the money is available, we need a coach who can actually identify a good player and pick players on the pitch who can pass to each other. It's going to be a big summer (again) but it's time for a change.
