I agree re the clear plan but it’s extreme isn’t it to say that any plan is ‘completely absent’. That clearly isn’t the case but this is to top end of football and it’s difficult
The fans helped at the end of last season yes but also helped create the situation due to the Benitez negativity, because he’s managed Liverpool. This is a really key point I think as it highlights the fan impact I’m talking about
I agree re the learning and surely that has to be that sacking manager after manager can’t be the answer
What is the long-term plan in terms of identity on the field?
What is the long term plan according to player logistics?
What is the long-term plan according to the hiring of managers?
Of course it is difficult. That is why it is all the more important to work systematically. That is why it is important to employ the people with the greatest competence, and people who are innovative. "Nil Satis Nisi Optimum"
As for Benitez, I agree, but of course there were a lot of bad feelings involved. So it was complicated. Based on that, it was a completely wrong appointment. Although I think we would be in a much better state now if he hadn't been sacked, but unlike Lampard, Benitez is an experienced manager who has a proven record.
I would rather say, we need to start hiring the right managers. After all, there's a reason they get fired. But to hire the right manager you need to have a concept, not just base yourself on ad hoc solutions.
