Time for perspective – look at Everton, Man U and Spurs

Ok, maybe it’s now time to end the miserable outpourings of the last 48 hours or so and get things into a proper perspective.

Yes, it was a poor performance against Palace but we also need to remember that it came at the end of six match unbeaten Premier  League run when we had played some outstanding football.

More importantly  we need to look at the League table as we enter that awful wilderness called the international break and observe positions one or two of the  so called elite find themselves in.

It shows a massive decline by Manchester United, Everton and Spurs in particular – is that permanent? Only time will tell but with the Irons in eighth place on 12 points perhaps the complaints are more than a bit over the top,

Beyond Man United and the Spuds we see The Toffees sitting in 18th place whilst unlikely outfits such as Palace and Burnley in sixth and seventh. Will they finish there – very doubtful!

One poor performance is excusable and perhaps now is the time to wind in our necks a bit, realise it’s very early days and that we should all relax a bit.

I have no doubt that the sack race among managers is about to begin with Ole Gunnar Soskjaer, Marco Silva and maybe Pochetinno in prime position for the  boot.

We’ve all had a moan-up over the Palace affair but despite a poor 90 minutes we are FAR  better off than some of the so called elite.
