Tbf he’s got bags of potential. Only about 200 games as a manger but ppg is about 1.6 so he’d need to up that.

Is the dearth of quality managers a reason to not sack our underperforming manager? I think his nonchalant attitude has spread to the team. No one looks arsed. Klopp is the obvious choice and looks like what the team needs but he’s not gonna work as “Head Coach”, he will want managerial control. Inzaghi is great but language issues. Xabi and Zidane would be amazing but I can’t see it. Rose has not done enough. Enrique is would be my dream choice. Nagelsmann timing is wrong. Hurzeler is my dark horse.

You don’t need a drink to pull me, your opinion is your opinion. I am not doing it to be self important or special, I’d never do this as a ITK on twitter or the like. I am not always correct but I trust who is telling me but things can change and info is out of date within a second of it being said. I was afforded a few opportunities and a few contacts who know I love footy, the data and consider me to be knowledgeable, so they ask me for some opinions/info and I ask them for footy stuff. It’s just normal relationships.

*I am clutching my pearls in shock. I am not “selling” anything, I am passing on info from people I know from being in and around the club/agents for years and years. Maybe I should run a poll for a new name? Spoofing c***? Gob on a stick? Or go back to Oakfield Red?

I’ve been banging on about 4-2-2-2 for ages and it feels like the natural system. Allison Frimpong Konate VVD Kerkez Gravenberch McAllister Szoboslai Wirtz Salah Isak Easy transition to 4-2-3-1 and allows hard pushing full backs but the deep two NEED to perform. Jones should be in for Macca rn.

Both.

Been told to expect NO big changes.

Wirtz was told he’d be the 10, which begs the question how are you fitting 4 at the back, Salah, Isak, Ekitike, Gakpo in as well.

Kelleher, Elliott, and Nunez were all universally loved in the squad. Diaz wasn’t replaced and for the first time in my life, It feels we bought players for a system we don’t play, a 10, an out and out 9 and further 9.

I don’t think Slot has broken the team spirit but his inability to bring them all together , new and old, in the face of Diogo’s tragic loss means highlighted his shortcomings. Jurgen's shadow casts itself long and wide in this aspect. He has the attributes to handle their emotions.

I presume it’s a ‘we expect better and if you can’t deliver it, we will find someone who will’.

Supposedly, the owners have ordered Hughes/Edwards to warn Slot about the form as they are very mindful of Spurs and Man Utd finish last year. Top 4 is essential to planning and players were bought accounting for continual ECL qualification. The owners are keeping their distance and relationship is “strained” and they “will not hesitate to act”. Senior leadership players are meeting Hughes today/tomorrow.

Sky has Jurgen at 2/1 now, I thought he was at 7/1 this morning.

If we concede at all, our heads will go.

Game by game basis now. 3 points Sunday buys him another game and so on until we are back in form. If he loses ANY game out of the next 5, I think he’s gone. Exploratory team will be put back together to “survey the landscape” before soft approaches begin. I’ve done no work today because of this shambles.

I was applying the stop clock analogy to the Rooney comment.

Acted like an entitled s*** last night and not the Goliath he should be. Berating Kerkez, (correctly) distrustful of Konate and allowing the midfield impression of Dr Jack Griffin, was Rooney correct?

This Ederson stuff may explain why they shipped him out. “Immoral” behaviour being investigated. Weird language.

The former is more correct. Lying RW’er.

Maybe Alonso should be. Trent’s life partner is unhappy, as is Vini Jnr and Valverde with Xabi “reportedly”.

Rose and De Zerbi were touted but have they improved or done anything since?

Senility and insanity from watching this sack of s***.

It’s like we’ve all forgotten that last season was a freak. The tune Gravenberch played, Salah’s swan song, imperious VVD and continuation of Klopp legacy while every other team was s***. Slot has taken us to 12th in the league, lost 75% of last 12 games, 17 out of 25 (or something close and the players have stopped playing. Maybe Klopp until end of the season then a job swap with Nagelsman after World Cup.

I tried to put a team out but we are s*** / injured / unmotivated so why f***ing bother. Can’t see how this continues.
