Gabriel Agbonlahor and Ally McCoist have insisted that Sam Allardyce's arrival at Leeds United will not help them in their battle against relegation, with the pair suggesting that their future in the top-flight will depend on the performances of the clubs around them.
Leeds have announced that Allardyce will take charge of the Whites for their final four Premier League matches of the season. Javi Gracia's 12-game spell in charge came to a sudden end after a dismal set of results in April that saw the club concede 23 goals in one month.
The 68-year-old will take charge of the club for the first time against reigning champions Manchester City this weekend. Both Agbonlahor and McCoist believe that the difficult fixtures awaiting Leeds mean that their future in the top-flight will depend on the results of Nottingham Forest, Leicester City and Everton's fixtures - rather than their own.
