The team is nowhere near Premier League standard. Don’t think they’d be contenders in the Championship either.
They’re so obviously completely out of their depth. The best coach in the world can only work with the material available.
Sometimes if it looks like a duck, swims like a duck and quacks like a duck...
The only question is how embarrassing this relegation will be, what records we might set, and whether there’s a risk of this rot being now so set in that it goes on beyond this season.
