Allardyce was sacked as manager by Mike Ashley months after he bought the club.

"It's going to be very difficult for Steve, because obviously I've experienced new takeovers twice," Allardyce told Talksport. "Once at Blackburn, and once under Mike. I wasn't his man, I can understand it not being their man, and Steve must be very worried from that point of view.

"At the moment they're going to be a Premier League side next season. I think Steve, in his first season, has done a very, very good job considering he came in two weeks before the season started."
