Hey Devon,would you sooner play open expansive football and possibly lose and be relegated or a steady progression of quality players which hopefully would result in better football and an almost certain retention of premier league football.
I prefer the latter,sometimes it gets worse before it gets better.
The tactics don't change regardless of personnel, so it probably won't get worse, nor will it get much better, it will just stay the same.
He gradually brought in better players at Stoke but it had little effect on style, points or league position.
His best finish was 11th with 47 points, Hughes finished 9th with 50 in his first season. Not saying Hughes is a better manager or plays open, expansive football, just pointing out that moving on from Pulis does not necessarily mean a downturn and certainly doesn't guarantee relegation.
What you see is what you get with Pulis, he makes no apologies for it, why would he, it works.
All we have to do is decide if we want to pay to watch it.
