Have always considered him to be a shrewd appointment and so it has proven.
The only slight negative is that we haven't quite hit the same entertaining heights we did under Pardew this time last year (Many 4-1, 3-1 victories etc) but he has made us far more resilient and likely to grind a result out against teams that 'park the bus,' frankly, that'll do for me! I would ultimately rather have winning football then pretty football.... a mix of the two is a bonus!
