So why was he even looking at Slot if you firmly believe Levy only employs sacked free managers????

Would you have paid the 20 mill that Feyenoord want?

If the club have scouted him and feel he is able to do better than any other manager and fits the long term vision of the club then yes £20m is fine. That we have no vision is probably why we balked at the price because Levy thinks he will sack him in 12 months.

It's a negotiation, and like every single one since about four Prime Ministers ago, it's a negotiation in which Daniel Levy has failed to adequately advance the club's interests, and has had his justifiably poor business reputation weaponized against him.

The scouting report is out against Levy. Bluff big and you've got him.

If it's a negotiation then why have all talks ended within 24 hours? Because only yesterday Slot was all set to be the next boss here and now he is signing a new contract at Feyenoord.

That's not true, at the time it wasn't easy to prise those managers from their respective clubs because of the compensation the club's were demanding. And my response was to the claim that Levy doesn't pay compensation which was just wrong.

Like i said, no other club would pay a ridiculous 20 mill for Arne Slot so why should we. 5 or 6 mill would have been just right and even that is overpaying. Utd paid 2.5 mill for Ten Hag!!

Peanuts compensation, £2-£4m IIRC, on coaches that probably earned that a year initially.
Mans a fucking tight weasel.
He also has absolutely NO bollocks to go for his first choice, no matter where they are or how hard it is to get them out of their club.
Easy pickings. Every time.
 
Song for next season

Oh when the Spurs (oh when the Spurs)
Go plodding on (go plodding on)
Oh when the Spurs go plodding on
We wanna make up the numbers
Oh when the Spurs go plodding on

What's left?

Rodgers
Mason
Potter


Not in love with any of them, but that's probably the order I would work in

I think it will be Ange. It seems like it’s between him Amorim and Enrique. I don’t see Enrique wanting to come here now and I also don’t see them paying Amorims release clause if they don’t truly believe in him.

Well I obviously disagree. 20 mill is outrageous for someone like Slot. This club has got to stop overpaying for the wrong players and managers. So much money has been wasted over the last four or five years its criminal. If this is a sign that things are changing then it's a good thing.

So who replaces my wifes names sake in December when he gets sacked?
And I don't know if I can cope with 3 months of being fed up with 2 people with the same name.
 
Think our 1st friendly is july 18th. Do you reckon someone will be in charge by then? Laughable this situation. The whole purpose of building a billion pound stadium was to attract the best. Unless club meant attracting best events like NFL, beyonce and guns n roses.
