I think it's a good move. He's got a great work rate like Roberts so it's a like for like change. No need to tamper with the tactics.

Some good football being played at the moment along the floor.

I dunno, Roberts is much stronger and holds the ball up a lot better. Still he did well against Chelsea so we'll see..

20 mins in and if I am being honest haven't seen us doing anything really different. Still more often than not launching the ball from back to front, though perhaps trying to get the ball into the channels more.

Well at home whatever we've been doing has been serving us well...

Do you actually think a new coach can bring in a totally new style in under a week? The first game was always going to be much the same.

I don't think we should change how we do our set pieces because we're the highest scorers in the league based on them.

Why haven't we tested their new keeper more at corners? That's what's been the most disappointing today. The commentators are saying that he's looking nervous but he hasn't had a shot to save.

Apart from that, we've played okay.

Much more short passing and fluidity already.

Yeah I know that. I was just giving my opinion on the play so far as let's face it one of the main talking points not just by fans but the media will be has there been any changes with the departure of the manager.

Why change a winning formula? I agree with Tim that we havent been anywhere as threatening from set pieces.

It might not be pretty but everyone on this board would take a 1-0 win with an Allardyce-esque set piece goal, than a 0-0 while playing some nice triangles.

I'll give you a factual - no atmosphere - apart from the chant " you can stick your chicken up your a**e"

I probably would, not sure about the owners though...

I think from the various media reports and from what Charlie Nicholas said today, the style of play was just a smokescreen for Sam not complying with Kentaro's wishes.
