  With the Sam thread dominating local news, thought I'd give this a bump.

  If he does that then he'll come 2nd to only John Lyall, in fact you could argue with the way the league is now and normally a closed shop at the top then it's an even bigger achievement

  It is a good read with a whole lot of truth. Slaven is a likeable person and comes across well.
  
  We will probably have some difficult times this season but he seems like a man who will keep the fans and players believing in him.

  Jenks says:

  “With the new manager everything’s changed in quite a few different ways, with no disrespect to Sam [Allardyce] – he did fantastic for the club,” Jenkinson told TalkSPORT.
  
  “Slaven [Bilic] has come in, the training’s very intense and quite a few things have changed. Obviously with the players he’s brought in and I think there’s an awful lot of quality in the squad.
  
  "Obviously there’s been a few changes with personnel but they’ve been positive ones. “We’ve got some great results against the big clubs away from home this year. At those sort of grounds you’ve got to sit in and defend well.
  
  “We’ve got such pace on the break where I think it’s suited us to be honest. In those games we’ve defended really well. [Victor] Moses, [Diafra] Sakho, [Dimitri] Payet, [Manuel] Lanzini - they are very good players on the break and that has suited us down to the ground.”

  The only problem is that quote about formation changes is from the London Evening Standard and not Lawro he thinks we should be bottom 3 according to his predictions !
