I’ve reached the point where staying emotionally neutral about the manager is no longer possible. Against my better judgement, I held onto hope that he might turn things around. While I’ve been critical of him in the past, I’ve also tried to balance that with moments of fairness and even praise when deserved.
But that’s over now. I no longer want him at this football club. For me, this goes beyond results now, it’s also about the man himself. He doesn’t deserve the privilege of managing a club of this stature. He lacks respect for the club, the league, and, frankly, the fans. I find him obnoxious, insincere, and PAINFULLY insecure.
Let’s be honest, at this point, Ange’s only selling point for people who still want him is his personality, because the football is devoid of promise. We’re not even entertaining anymore; it’s as dull as the worst days under AVB or Mourinho. Predictable, lifeless football, just dressed up with a sprinkle of salad dressing to mask the mediocrity of it all.
He may well be a great dad, a loving partner, and a decent person in his private life, but as a football manager, he’s one of the most arrogant individuals I’ve ever seen, with absolutely no justification for it. He’s simply not good enough at this level imo.
From this point on, I’m done giving him the benefit of the doubt. It would take nothing short of a miraculous transformation in form to change my mind.
I’m not sure even a trophy would convince me. Europa League win might sway me slightly, but let’s face it, a trophy didn’t save Ramos, and it shouldn’t really save Ange; at least in my eyes.
To use his own words against him here, Ange would be falsely rewarded if he won a trophy considering the season we have had, isn’t that how it goes according to his own logic?
He’s out of his depth, and he’s drowning the club along with himself.
Ange OUT.
