Pundit: I don't think Tony Pulis can survive this

Last updated : 19 November 2017 By Wba-mad Editor

Tony Pulis time at West Bromwich Albion is coming to an end, that's according to BBC Pundit Martin Keown. 

The former Arsenal, Everton and Aston Villa defender can't see a way back for Pulis after Albion's latest defeat. 

The loss means Pulis has won just 2 games in 21 matches as Albion's form has tailed off in 2017. 

Albion's away fans have already vented their frustration at Pulis' poor form and there was a subdued atmosphere at The Hawthorns yesterday as the Baggies were thrased 4-0 by Chelsea. 

However, Keown is one of a select few pundits who reckons that Pulis will soon be shown the exit door by the club. 

"I don't think Tony Pulis can survive this," he said on the BBC's Final Score show. 

"Partly that's down to the brand of football - we are coming towards the end of his time at The Hawthorns.

"This sort of poor West Brom performance is game after game. The Baggies need a shot of creativity right through the club. Are the players being asked to play football by the management?

"This has been a long time coming, and this result and performance today is really going to test the resolve of the owner.

"You never like to see someone lose their job but I'd be amazed if, by the next West Brom game, Tony Pulis is still in the job. It was dire today. There's only one way to go and that is to the Exit door for Pulis."
