Confident Pelle insists squad is much better than results

|

Irons boss Manuel Pellegrini insists that four defeats in the premier League is not an indication of the squad’s quality or ability.

Following the defeat against Wolves he said:“It’s a tough loss, because it’s our second home game and we’ve lost them both.

“We’ve made a big mistake for their goal, especially because it was the 93rd minute and it was our own free-kick. In the 93rd minute you must go to the other box and play the long ball, but we played short, we lost the ball and they scored the goal.

“There are a lot of things that we need to improve, I was not happy with the first 45 minutes. In the second half we improved, but it still wasn’t enough because we didn’t score from the chances we created. You are not going to take points if you don’t score from the chances you make.

“We don’t have points and have lost six points at home, but I am confident because I see the players working well during the week  Now we must try to take the pressure off and try to play 90 minutes in the way we work every day.

“For us, no points in four games is not [indicative] of the quality of squad we have.”

    Rubbish , Mr . Pelligrini . The Premiership doesn’t give you time to build a new team and new philosophy . We brought in nine new players without strengthening where we needed it.
    ( defensive midfield) for one .
    Now instead of having a feelgood factor we are back to the same old nervy feeling of impending doom . We don’t want to revisit that horrible feeling . SO get it sorted before the fans start shouting for your head which Hammers fans are very capable of . I personally wish we still had Moyes in retrospect looking at our last four performances . At least you could see some progress and with just a few good signings who knows how much better we could have become . I thought we were progressing and looking good for this season but seems It was just my imagination . Prove us wrong , Please .

    Well, if my power tools are capable of producing better results than what I’ve made, whose fault is it? I agree with Kevin, Moyes should have been given £100m.
