Real Madrid lost to Espanyol yesterday and Ancelotti looked like a dead man walking. He would be the obvious choice.
I’ve read some shit on here in the last couple of days but I think this is the best so far.

Get a f***ing grip, honestly 🤣🤣

Probably worth accounting for insofar as we’re assessing the chances he’s been given by the manager to prove himself
sure, even with those, he hasn't started two consecutive games,.
He has completed 90 minutes once (liverpool EFL Cup)

Played a total of 390 minutes in 15 appearances and still scored as many goals from open play as Pedro, or Giorginio, when playing as a 9.
Both of whom have started consecutive games and been allowed to develop some form.

If you feel that Fab has genuinely given Ferguson a chance, then please elaborate.

Two people with absolutely zero experience of management, for half a season, isn’t going to happen.
Quite, if we are going to appoint a zero experience rookie, Gross would be my choice

I think I’d loan my season ticket out if we got Lallana and Milner

Does the manager have a problem with sir names starting F and E .?
Not with E, but I did hear Hurzeler also struggles with his THs. You can’t say fairer than that then can you Fabio?

His treatment of Fergie is not good. Fergie deserved the run of games when Welbeck was injured, instead he left him on the bench and persisted with Pedro as a 9 which didn't work... just give Fergie a chance FFS. Not ship him off somewhere else.
He's been shit every time he has played. f*** giving him a chance. Every time we doo, he just lumbers around and ruins promising chances. Send him on loan.

I think he’s given Evan as much of a chance as one could expect considering Welbeck’s form and until early December his availability and Pedro and Georginio’s all round game.

If a decision is made to let FAB go, having Lallana as Manager with Milner as Asst Manager until at least the end of the season would make sense. Lallana worked under both Potter and RDZ and knows how TB wants to play football.

We are safe from relegation so nothing to lose and much to gain if harmony can be restored. Can't say there are any experienced managers out of a job at the moment who would be sutable to our style of play. Might be different at the end of the season.
I've always thought that of all our recent players, Lallana is the most likely to go into management and have some success. He seems smart, and a good leader.

But he should definitely start a bit lower down the pyramid. Plus being on Southampton's books would make this a non-starter anyway.

Yup. I might as well play up top if the only choice is Joao Pedro and both he and Rutter are clearly much better playing deeper and slightly wider.
The problem with Pedro is he looks totally disinterested at the moment and is more intent on getting himself sent off. All the talk of Liverpool and Arsenal watching him earlier in the season have completely turned his head making him think of bigger things

He’s lacking confidence that’s all the fact he’s getting into the right positions is a positive. Leicester away it was clearly a confidence issue.
That can all be resolved by a decent manager showing faith in the lad.
Just a shame our manager isn’t up to the task.

Ok sure, let's leave us with 1 recognised striker then.
If your manager doesn't believe in you, your hardly going to have confidence or guile to perform. I wouldnt be surprised if the rumours of senior members of the team unhappy with Fabs treatment of Ferguson aren't true.
You'll soon want him back if he goes to Wet Spam and starts getting goals.
