New manager

[Lob]

I don't mind AC Milan's reject. Far better than what we currently have.

Were the Friedkin’s at Roma when Fonseca was their manager?

Yes. They didn't choose him, they found him when they bought the club. They left him on the bench for an entire season, then they brought Mourinho.

Potter or Moyes it is then. If W Ham sack Lopetegui then you'd expect Potter to go there and Moyes will feel he has a great chance then, unless some unknown is pulled out of the hat.

Yes for 2 years. He finished 5th in the first season and got to the semi finals of the Europa League the following year. He then left and they brought in Mourinho.

Just worked their balls off for three very tough draws.

did you watch the latest game.

Moyes would split the fan base and had the worst defence outside the bottom 3 last season. Would be a big let down for me if that’s the best the Friedkins can do. We need a fresh start, not Moyes.

Yeah but you can hardly say they’ve downed tools after those three draws.

We tried to come out a bit yesterday and got beat by a better version of ourselves.

If we had the pace/ability of their front four we might actually be able to hurt teams.

You can after yesterday's game, even Dyche said it. Get someone new in quick as this will not end well.

Get Conceicao Fonseca in!

Wasn’t he flavour of the month about seven years ago?

I’d have sacked him weeks ago if we can definitely spend this January.

If we can’t I don’t think there’s a magic bullet, this lot haven’t got much more in the tank than this.

I do reckon 3-5-2 might get slightly better results than this though.

I reckon if we like championship football we keep him.

This team needs new ideas, and fast.

If? We don't, so try not to use hypothetical scenarios to excuse how crap we are.

Issue I have is this team could quite easily go down, regardless of who is the manager.

He’s kept it up twice so far. It’s a risk but I think if he loses against Bournemouth it’s a risk we have to take.

I’m no Dyche fan at all, he’s a complete dinosaur of a coach and comes across as an arrogant fella tbh but he’s got history for keeping crap teams in the league. If we gamble we have to be sure we can provide the new guy with more quality.

Huh?

So you’ve admitted we haven’t got any pace or quality in our front four? That’s a big reason why we are crap?
