[Albion] De Zerbi was NOT “sacked”

I haven’t read every post but has anyone actually defended RDZ for not just the Mason signing but his comments?
Nope, and no one does that when it comes to some other club signing Greenwood. But like you could see on Getafe and Marseille fans, a particular type of not too uncommon brain set sail to the mission of justifying and excusing the new star coming in. A handful of people would almost certainly "suffer" from this... flexible brain. Less so here than in many other clubs given the values of Brighton, but still - people would die on the "maybe he's a better person now" hill.

You can see the same phenomena among fans getting bought by oil states etc. Everyone calls it dirty when it happens somewhere else, but once the idea of title races and CL and stuff settle... "Flexible brains" will get to work.

Perhaps Greenwood chose France as they have a more ambivalent attitude to rape than the UK. There is a tendency towards victim blaming and an acceptance of men being unable to control their urges. It's harder to get justice as a rape victim in France. It's also where Roman Polanski has found a safe haven for the past 40 years despite an interpol red notice. Even some high profile women have spoken out against the MeToo movement, so it's not just a male chauvenism problem

If he was sacked we wouldn’t have got any competition from Marseille.
Doesn't matter. Still sacked in every way but a technical one. Just like Graham Potter - technically speaking a team would need to pay Chelsea compensation to hire him. Same goes for hundreds of other sacked manager.

No one leaves the PL for Ligue 1 unless they're sacked.

I only found out yesterday chuntski are still paying potter 200k a week 😂😂😂😂 magnificent.
It does go some way to explaining why he can't be arsed to take another job. Imagine nearly £30k per day (INCLUDING WEEKENDS) to just do nothing.

Obviously, it's only £16k-odd after tax, but I wouldn't say no.

He could take a pay cut and do some work or he could just f*** all - I know what I’d do! 😂😂 maybe that is why he got further in life than I did

He was definitely sacked, though. Definitely.

................... and he still departed through 'mutual consent', without any other option being on the table for him. So, mutually agreed, take it or leave it, not actually sacked then. :thumbsup:

Good business TB and PB!

Quite the team De Zerbi is building

Have to be a pretty special person if you want to sign two abusive sexual predators within a month. Not keen on finding out exactly how special.
