Nah I’m a realist and see he’s about to be punted.
I just think there’s a lot of mitigating circumstances. I get it, it’s a results business. But I guarantee a change of manager won’t change results until all the squad are back and some new additions brought in. In fact it could get even uglier under a caretaker. Just my 2 bobs worth.

Well I’ll happily wager that in the 8 league games with a new coach, we will get more points than in his last 8 games

That’s no true though is it. There have always been others to play but he won’t play then.
Cause and effect here.
The root cause being Ange’s stubborn streak. And some of his choices in who to give playing time to and when. And I guess who to actually sign.

And at this point to discount his training practices from being part of the issue is just ignoring what he’s said himself in the past.

And as every Ange fan and Celtic fan said when he was coming in, he’s a man of principles, he won’t change or budge and expect injuries.
Which is exactly what we got.

Every coach the same.

Not one small part of you wonders how that can be true but you’ve been right about all of them being stubborn?

Honestly I’ve followed his career and injuries ARE NOT the norm. That’s a fact.
As for not playing players, there is a reason that we’re not privy to. Seriously his career is on the line and you think he’s not playing players who could do a better job????
Yes Ange is stubborn but that’s more to do with his footballing ethos. As in the mentality he’s trying to create. He said from the get go the club needs a culture change.

The old classic. Happens every time and it’s not true, the club release it to put pressure on the players and manager rather than themselves. The club release that before every manager is sacked, I posted all the links a few months ago and how long it then takes for the manager to be sacked. He’s done.

We’ve all seen it before.

And you are bang on, not one player spoke to Sami fucking Mokbel. For all we know Sami knows Milesy and he’s been the leak all this time…

Either that or it’s Levy’s Brother in law, that meathead player liaison. My money would be on him. He’s blatantly a plant from the board. No coach has ever had the choice not to hire him either.

Levy knows he don’t want to invest in the squad needed for this type of Intensity, sameway he knew he didn’t want to spend the 70-80m on a world class CB that Conte needed. Then he just waits for the fans to turn on the coach.

I mean sometimes it can have some truth inside. I can imagine Levy or anyone from hierarchy reaching out to some players. They may share they thoughts to them while being not aware that club may leak it later for the purpose you described.
