did he have idea to start with ?
He’ll probably go with Mason & get the back room staff from the club , king etc
Levy being an astute businessman and always the winner in every deal is the biggest myth in football. Basically it's all just media bollocks and I reckon Levy actually believes the hype.
Fact of the matter is it's a total myth - probably perpetuated by the man himself.
Being a nob to deal with doesn't make you an "Excellent businessman"
Levy gets rinsed on most deals
Janssen
Soldado
Adeybaor
Ndomble
Los Celso
Lamela
Clarke
Sessegnon
All of those deals have taken him for a ride and he's parted good money for a sea of mediocrity.
Tough negotiator - is he bollocks...... He's just got a rep for being shite to deal and work with and often bites off his nose to spite his face at the expense of having a decent team.
I'm not saying Levy is winner in deals, as you say its myth
I have little confidence in Nuno but would be surprised if Levy sacks him now, with the team in 6th place notwithstanding that the football’s been far from convincing.
Unless another manager Levy prefers suddenly becomes available.

Yeah unless the wheels come off completely and we start hitting around 10th or below (possible after the next 2 games) i think he'll be here until someone notably better is available. As ever with Levy it will come down to money and stuborness.
Selecting the squad he did for the European game completely took the wind out of our sails after two good league performances. He should be building momentum and confidence yet by losing that game all he did was bring the squad back to square one.
He seems to make so many mistakes with the squad and team selection on a regular basis. It’s not like he’s a rookie, he’s an experienced manager and shouldn’t be doing it. He’s just out of his depth at a club our size and needs to be put out of his misery before the vitriol and things turn nasty for him.
Completely & utterly inept.
Save everyone the bother of watching any more of this shite. Just can the cunt now and be done with it. As for who comes in, anybody with a functioning brain would be an improvement.
Worst it's been for 20 years. Pathetic. And to hear his post match interview just confounds his absolute stupidity. He thinks we played well.

That's his main problem. He has the mentality of a small club manager. At Wolves it doesn't matter if you lose a cup match by resting players, the priority is to survive in the league. He does not belong at a club that wants to win something.
He rested all our good players on Thursday, lost with a pathetic performance, then brought all of them back on Sunday and lost again with another pathetic performance. Whereas West Ham rotate 5 or 6 for their Europa match, won it, played all the big boys against us at the weekend and won. Who used their squad better? The only thing that's better than rest when it comes to keeping players fresh, is winning matches. Winning is better than resting. Nuno doesn't get it.
I think you’ve hit the nail on the head there.
This squad is not the same squad as the one that failed PochI know some of the players are the same but the squad is different. The problem we have is that there is no plan or structure when building it or when selecting a manager. We ended up chosing a manger with no plan what we actually wanted.
Points wise, probably not a lot, if any. But he would 100% have us playing better football, and our attacking players especially would enjoy him more. For now, that's good enough for me.
Same Mourinho who lost 6-1 to a team from the same league where Solskjaer was racking up trophies?
Any manager with a half decent attacking blueprint would be better. Valverde and Favre a free agents as we speak.
Results FC have not learnt a single thing from the Mourinho debacle. The exact same warning signs are there.
What I'm saying, is I don't believe there was a list of best to worst in any order.
There were just people we spoke to (or were linked to) and we ended up screwing it up.
I think we could convince Rogers. I think he's slimey enough to be paid to leave.
I do agree that Daniel Greedy and ENIC have become very known now and getting a top level coach to come is going to be hard. But I don't put Rogers at the top. He's much better than Nono though.
We're not gonna get Conte or Zidane or the likes of Touchel, Naiggelsman or Flick when they were available, because they had top jobs lined up. But Spurs are a bigger club that Leicester and Brighton.
Funny thing was, at the start of this mess, I wasn't fussed about Rogers or Potter, but given what we ended up with, I'd fucking get on my knees and beg one of those 2 to come.
