Hang on, surely this should be the other way round.
Gus has had fantastic support from his Chairman but is that faith being repaid? Desperate to manage at a higher level and with an ego the size of the Albert Hall, our manager constantly courts the press to talk up his ambition.
But does his ambition match his ability?
Is he learning fast enough to hold down a better job? He was outwitted by an older, more experienced hand last night and thats certainly not the first time we've seen it happen. Holloway learnt from the first leg and upped his game. Gus didn't, pressing ahead with the usual game plan. Holloway made decisive substitutions and went looking to finish the job. Gus waited and paid the penalty.
How come Palace were so fired up last night and some of our players looked like they had treacle in their boots? How come, every time we go a goal down, we know we can't win the game? How come heads drop in our our team when we fall behind? How come we still haven't got the right balance in the team?
When they sit down for their ' meeting ' I suggest Tony Bloom asks...." How come Mr Poyet? "
