CHRIS SUTTON: Sam Allardyce clearly doesn't think his current lot at West Brom are good enough for Premier League survival - but will he jump ship if the January window doesn't go his way?

It's an intriguing situation with Sam Allardyce and West Brom.

When the Baggies pinched a point at Anfield, it was ‘my players’. Allardyce spoke about how the team executed his smash-and-grab tactics to perfection against the Premier League champions.

But after losing 5-0 to Leeds, 4-0 to Arsenal and getting knocked out of the FA Cup by League One Blackpool, Allardyce has attempted to distance himself from the group.

They definitely weren’t his players at Bloomfield Road on Saturday. Allardyce made sure we knew that in his post-match interviews.
