Let this thread sink down and burn it with fire. We need to get rid of players as well, but holy shit, how did we believe that an ex-Chelsea coach will turn us around. Twice its happened. Lets make sure it never happens again, hopefully.

I think he's fantastic, I wouldn't be terrified if he was made Spurs manager. However, I'd rather a manager that is even more proven, Nagglesmann is simply more proven than Potter, he is doing a better job than Potter with a similar profile squad (challenging for Bundesliga Title and semi-Finals of CL).
Why would you care?
It helps when they all think the manager is a dinosaur cunt, kind of gives them a common cause.
But if you really think footballers actually turn up to their jobs every day and plan and scheme this way, then you need a tinfoil hat my friend.
1. I signed up to this forum before the plandemic occurred.
2. They come across as whingeing pricks tbh. I'm sure if it were somewhere in the middle, they would also complain.
I just want him disassociated with the club as possible.
Would add Sonny to the list of professionals too, but yeah, agree.
You had me until you said similar profile squad...
That does not compute.
Probably the blueprint for how a club creates talent in RBS/RBL. They have a host of players that will be sniped, including two young CBs. They have talent everywhere and that is why they are competing. Of course Julian is a huge role in that, but that side is not Brighton
Everything you mentioned should be a reason to sack Mourinho after the season - or at least after the final on Saturday. It seems to exist a personal vendetta against Jose in the sense that, at some point, the club decided not to give him a chance to win a title before his tenure was over. Now, I´m not saying Spurs would be favorites against City if Jose was still in charge, obviously.
But, when a club without a title for 13 years fire a manager 5 days before a final, the situation is very clear: the club´s priority is not winning that competition.
That’s not clear at all. The team has looked totally lost. On one side you have the (past) serial winner and on the other side a team that looked finished. Now, we are hoping for a boost. Of course we want to win!
Apart from the ESL, what happened after Everton that didn´t happen after United, Newcastle or, let´s face it, Dinamo? Why sack him just five days - and not 15, 20 or 30 days - before the final?
Say what you want about Jose, but he has won 12 of his 14 finals. And he was hired to win titles. So, according to you, as an strategy to win this final, the club fired a manager with his CV, who has brought the club to this final, 5 days before the game?
Let´s just agree to disagree, because it honestly makes no sense in my opinion.
You said the same thing about the RBL squad when Hasenhuttl was their manager? (who I think is also good but has some big question marks over him)?
Good managers have average players turned into talked about players, that's what makes then good managers. When Poch went to Southampton people were seriously talking about Font & Lovern as contenders for best CB in the prem!! Had Lambert talked about as one of the best strikers, shaw LB, Clyn, ...most bought for millions by LFC but all bar Lallana (who's had massive injury problems) struggled after their moves. Not all of the great Monaco side that won the Legaue went on to perform as well as they did for Monaco. Same as seen by some in Poch Spurs team.
When a manager has his team playing better than the sum of it's parts the players within that system get lorded, some deservedly so, some because they are a product of that system.
Agree about the blueprint, but that blueprint isn't wholly about the manager, he too becomes a product of the system (which was orchestrated by Rangnick).

can we remove all Jose smilies as he's gone now?
Because he was shite and hopefully it's saved us money
Read what he wrote....
Maybe the source really is descent
He's gone you can relax now bro... Why are you still so negative?
Just like the way they did it with Poch, they have no class.
There was no negativity in the post you just quoted..?
I was merely answering another posters comment....
Also, presumably you've made exactly the same comment to everyone who said anything about Jose after he was sacked?
If not, why not?
Why did my entirely neutral response get singles out? Odd
