Wow a 20 month contract. Doesn't matter who the manager is, when the players realise he is on a short term contract they feel free to give up trying if they don't like his ways.
He didn't sign because he was waiting for the big European clubs and none came. Apparently Ronaldo doesn't want him to manage Man Utd.Then why didn’t Conte sign this summer?
Also Jose said the current squad was great when he joined, and Nuno had no leverage to be promised anything.
Nevertheless, they will spread around with money in JanuaryNewcastle are beyond saving this season. I can't see him being interested in a relegation scrap which they don't look like surviving.
my guess is high wages and also levy doesnt want to make it 5 yrs like mourinho, theres option for one year makes senseWow a 20 month contract. Doesn't matter who the manager is, when the players realise he is on a short term contract they feel free to give up trying if they don't like his ways.
It's to please the fans and save face.I don't understand Conte as an appointment. He doesn't play attacking football and he requires huge money to be spent.
Mason’s mates won’t let it happen. They’ve already glued themselves to Levy’s deskI refuse to believe this is happening until the club's twitter account confirms it
and even then I'll still probably doubt it
How many times has this happened with us , exact same thing in the summer , he was all set to join and then we ended up with Uncle Albert
Not sure it's worth paying any attention to them, at quick glance of the first few comments and they are bemoaning how swiftly we act, and how our front 3 is quality...
In many ways, he is the only option, which is fucking weird, hence only 20 months.
Probably got a 1 year extension or something. Not sure though with Conte they can just rest, he will have their balls in a vice if they tried that.
this cant go wrong now can it, i think their will be a mob hit on levy if this falls apart now
