In truth, I’m a bit love hate with Roberto right now… but he’ll be viewed more fondly than Potter - for all the right reasons.
I keep veering from one side to another, but with a competitive (and the right) squad I think we would have seen full on RDZ ball again…
I’m not sure RDZ was being...
Yeah, given that Hinsh was broken by RDZ and Velts can’t stay fit and Lamptey is finished… I’d say Montoya would have played, you didn’t stipulate the fully fit squad bit… sorry.
Ridiculous thread, as it’s not happening.
Just stop for a second, step back and consider all the options open to the club.
Tony, as a fan, reappointing a man he knows will polarise the support base.
Does that strike you as the kind of decision the club would make?
Then there’s Graham.
All...
Well, I’d say Montoya, even Bruno and possibly an up for it Propper… Burn too. Izquierdo was awesome when fit… I also loved the mad Romanian… could have used his spice during our limp run in.
When you add in Steele, Gross, Dunk… now much older …
Like I say, take the high ground - I still think...
I’m a riot at parties.
This is football, our club and I give a shit. Ultimately we’re managing decline… I’m not sure I’d want the job right now.
That said, we’re a better option than utd - that’s for sure.
I disagree - I’m amazed how good we think we are… Moran ? That’s a stretch, I’m still unconvinced by Buonanotte, flashes aside… Sarmiento - give over and Rushworth won’t be here, someone else mentioned Offiah - really ? Barco is green and not a FB … and we don’t know how Osman will adapt … hmmmm...
I said elsewhere that Roberto has damaged our reputation, especially in two key aspects:
- recruitment, consistently bashing our model in public, and then saying his vision (spending plans) could not be aligned with the club - not a good look.
- other coaches think he’s a genius - see pep...
You must love holidaying in Egypt - as you’re in the Nile 😂
Veltman hardly played, he’s in decline and being managed as such. Gross can’t walk on water forever, and decline is inevitable - if he’s even here next season (gulp) welbeck - see Velts… Moder, who I love btw… he’s got some way to go...
Welbz decline, Dunk decline, Veltman decline, Gross decline, Milner declined 😂 March - probable decline, due to injury… Lamptey - declined… Moder (see March) …
Given that around 4 of the above have been key to our PL years … the core in some instances, I’d say we’re in decline. It’s not...
He’ll take the money, they ALWAYS do.
We’d be naive in the extreme expecting him to pick us… with a squad on the decline and a lack of funds to even paper over the cracks…
If he comes to us, it’ll be because no one else actually offers him the job…
