If he has to buy a whole new starting 11 in order for us to see real progress then I'd argue he's not that great of a manager.Maybe
Or maybe with some fresh faces and a bit of a culling things would be smoother
There's enough there to suggest he might still turn this around that I'm not calling for his head
Plus, I don't think he's getting sacked anyway, so we might as well just get behind him and the team at this stage and hope that Brands plays a blinder in the summer when it comes to player in-comings and outgoings
Regardless, there's no overnight fix for the mess we're in. This is going on five years of mismanagement at all levels of the club
He's not really improved the players he inherited. Sigurdsson has had a more productive season in front of goal but that's about it.
I'm not saying there's an overnight fix but I've seen enough from Silva to have very little confidence in him being someone who can take us forward.
I agree that he won't be getting sacked and I'd bet anything that would be Moshiri's decision and not Brands.
