Does the fact that we still haven't agreed a new deal with him indicate that we're not really that happy with him? Seems odd that we'd leave it so late if we wanted to keep him

He's been ineffectual at best, a waste of time and money at worst.

Just look at what happened when Ancelotti master-minded the summer transfer activity and the effect it had on the team.

No employer is going to miss the big picture. He's gone. Unquestionably he's gone.

Just a matter of scrapping the DoF role now.
 
No, only one person lol

I think hes likely to stay myself, but i think a performance review wont be that straight forward, there are definitely areas he should be targeting to improve.

On the balance of everything he should probably have the opportunity to move into his own cycle, i.e. sell his own players.

If Carlo sticks around i dont see it doing much harm.
 
He’s responsible for what is out out on the pitch.

Before he arrived Allardyce was managing Niasse Martina and Ashley Williams. A few years under Brands and Ancelotti is managing James Rodriguez Richarlison and Digne.

Are people really still arguing this?

If they got shut of Brands any incoming DoF (and we hope the role is scrapped, of course) would be faced with getting shut of players brought in by Brands:

Bernard
Delph
Gbamin
Iwobi
Kean

or those he couldn't shift after 3 years of trying like:

Besic
Bolasie
Niasse

That's about £150M worth of financial waste in fees and the wages are a massive drain.

Just can't see them legging him when Carlo has stated on numerous occasions their great working relationship. Also the club after so many seasons of absolute rubbish seems to be turning the longest corner in history. For Brands to leave now would mean more upheaval,more restructuring,more bending to another DOF philosophy,who also Ancelotti may not see eye to eye with. There has obviously been conversation regarding contract talks and it's probably been agreed its probably better to leave it after the window has closed.
