The obvious answers WOULD have been Potter or Ten Haag. But Levy chose Conte instead. If a change needs to be made, Levy needs to be willing to take the L for this, as well as the hit to the clubs pocket book.
Kane, Son, Perisic, Romero, Richarlison, Kulusevski, Lloris...
Players who would get into 99% of teams in Europe.
But yeah. Our squad is shit...

Howe?I would have gone for either Eddie Howe or Graham Potter ahead of Conte this time last year. Interesting one now.
We’re 3rd. You think changing formation gets us higher?! Why?!Unless you get this guy Hakimi level wing-backs (and there aren't many of those) 343, 352 or 3,4/5 whatever the fuck is not going to work.
People surely need to realise this now.
We all know who's going to replace him...

This right here. The teams needs quality wing backs and admittedly we do have one in Perisic but we need WBs with speed who can stretch the game. It’s all very static right nowUnless you get this guy Hakimi level wing-backs (and there aren't many of those) 343, 352 or 3,4/5 whatever the fuck is not going to work.

Yes- I think 2 windows is pretty reasonable to turn a team around. Look at Utd- people said it'd take YEARS for them to get back, and after just one window, Ten Haag has them seemingly on the cusp of respectability again.
Also, Davies, Dier, Doherty, Hojbjerg, players that clearly lack quality.Kane, Son, Perisic, Romero, Richarlison, Kulusevski, Lloris...

Honestly if he goes to Juve it will do us a favour. I'm fed up with this shit. We have been an embarrassment away to chavs, Woolwich and now United.
Who do you replace him with?Was already heading that way but totally made up my mind tonight. Good manager but would like us to move on at the end of the season. Please no stupid massive new contract. Managers that dont play expansive football just dont suit us, never have.
The only player on that list who is shit is Doherty.Also, Davies, Dier, Doherty, Hojbjerg, players that clearly lack quality.
I wouldnt sack him now, so i'd see whats around at the end of the season when he's contract is up. Someone that can build something who plays good football would be good. It would obviously require better planning than the summer 2021 shambles.
Two windows - give me a break. Bear in mind, Man U spent nearly €250M in the summer which is on a completely different level to what we have to spend. We spent less than half that when you remove the Romero purchase so hardly a good comparisonYes- I think 2 windows is pretty reasonable to turn a team around.
