Pulis. Their owners will act. Ours won't. Even if we lose to Everton he won't go. Maybe when Puel comes here and wins, Les Reed will decide to act.

https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2012/dec/03/valencia-axe-mauricio-pellegrino-president Interesting point here - Valencia sacked him only after the fans started chanting against the board. Perhaps we should start doing the same.

The way Puel has got Leicester playing suggests that the issue is also one of personnel. I want MP gone ASAP but some of the players are not fit to wear the shirt.

More money

I'm fairly confident that we won't go down. Swansea, Palace, West Brom all worse than us, and Huddersfield are in free fall too. Get rid of MP and we'll finish top half. With MP we'll be 13-16th

Exactly this. He wouldn't take any sh!t from moping Bertrand or VVD. The only problem would be bringing in Paul Telfer.

Completely clueless.

He is past his sell by date.

The fans need a lift too, the atmosphere home and away has been flat. Adkins and Strachan would do that for sure. My number one choice - Brendan Rodgers.

Looks like it's Redmond's turn

Brendan Rodgers would be my number one choice, but would he leave Celtic? They will probably have Europa League football.

It's a must win game. Lose and we are in massive trouble. Draw won't do us much good.

We could defend though, so at least we got points on the board. 0-0 against Liverpool and Man Utd is better than 0-3 and 0-1 respectively.

Who else did we interview if he was top of the list?! This is why he should have gone two weeks ago. Unless we conduct a comprehensive interview process in secret and keep MP on in the mean time, we'll have a horrid run of games with a caretaker (probably Eric Black)

OUT I'd take Koeman back, he's the only manager to have got anything against Man City, could do with him in our next away game. Would spice things up for the Everton match too.

Valencia fans said his attacking play was dreadful with them. Did Les Reed actually do his due diligence???? He needs to go too.

Allardyce finished below us in the Championship with arguably a better squad. You are, without a doubt, one of the most clueless posters here.

Adkins would be better than Allardyce. We need a positive manager, not another negative one.

At least Pellegrino has united the forum. Everyone wants him out.

He should’ve been sacked 2 weeks ago. Les Reed won’t do it, he hasn’t got the bottle.

I called it. He’s taken off our most threatening player Boufal. Redmond and Long still on. CLUELESS PELLEGRINO

And there’s the obligatory Romeu yellow. So that’s him suspended.

The repeats chants of the Lovren song made me chuckle. Best entertainment so far.

There was nearly a goal from our corner. Unfortunately it was Liverpool who nearly scored it.
