Prior to appointing him I would have not wanted him as our manager.
But, he deserves the chance for keeping us in the division. The players appear to have rallied round him too.
I worry about him long term. Lots of pals are Stoke fans & both my lads were there. He's a bit dour. He, like most managers have his favourites. Think Stephen Ireland.
His in game management is sometimes a bit strange.
As a previous poster mentioned, his record of involving academy players at Stoke was appalling.
However, he deserves our support & I for one will be supporting him.
