yeah this is definitely on now. naylor isn’t much of a speculator, if he’s writing about potter being given consideration it’s because that’s what he’s been told, and the club are asking him to effectively start the job of rehabilitating his image amongst the fanbase
yeah absolutely we do still have a very good squad and i will concede my post was driven mainly by feeling rather than necessarily by objective fact, though i think there is good reason behind what i wrote.
i think the frustrating part is that we were well up there for european qualification...
true but they’re in a much better position because they’ve held on to their best players apart from rice and replaced adequately in that scenario, said player’s absence isn’t felt too much.
and they have their manager a squad deep enough to win a european trophy
100% this. The roots of every problems we’ve had over the last 6 months had been because we had a shite summer window. didn’t get in a proper medical team. didn’t even come close to compensating for £150Ms worth of talent being sold. missed out on the marquee targets which could’ve drastically...
i’m sure this is rubbish but if we genuinely have decided we’d rather have steve cooper as manager than roberto de zerbi i’d probably seriously question the decision making at the top of the club for the first time in a very long time
what on earth is this new trend of everyone making a press release every time they put a thread on ignore. this isn’t an airport, you don’t need to announce your departure!
wonder if peter bosz would fancy a stint in the prem. a bit older than we’d normally look at not sure we could tempt him given PSV are playing champions league, but PSV have been excellent this season, he plays the sort of football we want, has oodles of experience and some pretty impressive...
i’ll personally support him if he comes, however others might not. tony has to know this, and if dividing the fanbase is worth it to him in order to have a docile personality at the helm who won’t rock the boat recruitment-wise, then so be it, and i’ll back him if that’s the case because i trust...
would like that a lot
“Conceição’s approach is very possession-heavy as he likes his team to recycle the ball in defence before giving it to one of his midfielders or one of the centre-backs dribbling the ball into midfield. And while this is true in most of his games, especially in the Liga...
this is a good point and one worth discussing. i would certainly say the absolute latest should be before we go to japan, it would be a complete joke to go there without a manager, but ideally it’ll be wrapped up by end of next week.
obviously it helps to a degree that our managers don’t have a...
he probably won’t want to leave but we should do everything we can to get archie gray. he’s the next championship player we’ll be kicking ourselves for not at least trying to sign when he’s tearing it up in a few years at a villa or west ham, like with olise and wharton currently (though...
also surpised to not have heard any links with copenhagen’s head coach jacob neestrup. they were impressive whenever i watched them in the champions league this season, he’s maybe a bit young for a move to the premier league but his style of play looks like a very logical next step for us after...
