I would like to feel sorry for Ange. But if he actually manages to coach the team personally with real tactical work during training so we are not 14th on the table, then Levy would probably be more privy. Even if he's not, there is nothing to be said about Ange because he has nothing to be afraid of.
I’m clearly joking. well maybe not clearly enough
Maybe our injuries and poor form has less to do with our Coach, and a lot to do with us having the most gruelling schedule.
It has everything to do with the coach. He did not manage his squad properly when the fixture congestion was at its peak, he showed he did not respect or understand the physical limitations of the players.
Look how much rotation he is doing now compared to back in November. Back then he was playing VDV at LB against City 3 days after he played 90 minutes away at Palace. Now he leaves him out entirely against Fulham after he only played an hour against Alkmaar in the week.
Now that he’s been humbled by his obvious lack of expertise he is starting to leave players like Son, Porro, etc out of his lineups which he NEVER used to do. And this is when our schedule is not that taxing.
Clearly AI shenanigans going on here.
Poch’s right arm has disappeared. He definitely had 2 arms last time I saw him. Common AI mistake.
And he’s got two pairs of sunglasses hanging off his jumper. Which is just plain weird.
But it’s what happens when you tell AI to create a pair of sunglasses.
These robots are too literal for their own good.
Daniel levy has far too much respect for Ange to have a catch up with Poch. Crazy we would even think such a thing is possible!!
Have also had it confirmed by non Ai sources this photo is not fake.
Unfortunately given no clear idea why they were meeting up. That’s the million dollar question.
Or maybe a few million dollars………. I’m guessing there.
The last sentence tells you all you need to ‘let the gane get away from us…’. Wdf doesn’t he see that and try to do something about it. I said before he always says after the game what the problem is but never either knows or does anything during the game.
I said the ages ago. Never talks about tactics post match just generalisations like let the game get away from us. Although I always thought he never wants control.
I’ve come to the conclusion that he can see what’s happening. He’s just totally clueless about tactics and don’t know what to do about it.
Has Ange been prioritising cups?
The most annoying thing about Ange besides the awful results and performances and tactics. Ignoring all the incompetence.
Is all the bravado. The “it’s who we are mate”. Coming out with “are you not entertained” after we fluke a rare win despite losing 8 games in a row or something before then, and the immediately losing another 8 games afterwards. Delivering a long sermon when we scrape passed AZ, acting like he’s the godfather of football, and we are all idiots for daring to question him.
He’s just a thoroughly awful man, and incredibly thin skinned. Looking back on that Chelsea game in 2023, alarm bells went off like crazy but I didn’t think it would end up being quite this bad and toxic. He’s arrogant beyond belief, thinking that his way is the only and he should be above questioning.
Kicking off with fans. He clearly has a massive inferiority complex and is now lashing out in all directions as he realises he’s completely out of his depth.
Please Levy put him and us out of our misery and sack the useless clown.

Convinced Ange is going now, these are being released to increase pressure on him to accept whatever reduced pay off Levy has offered.Yes. It's clearly Levy.
Here's another photo from that same meet up that makes it even more clear:
You have to ask who is behind the release of these photos as soon as we got to the international break.
Not Cullen.
the game got away from us the moment he subbed off Romero and we had a 19 year old midfielder and past it left back in the heart of our defence.
The only way to rectify it at that point was to bring on VDV but he's massively reluctant to take him out the bubble wrap until frankfurt no doubt
We got to the SF of one. Played the strongest team available pretty much in the FA Cup and EL is obviously the priority now.
As regards tactics he still thinks they are little sweets.
Why are Arne Slot and Wayne Rooney’s younger brother there?
I want Ange gone desperately, however I don’t want Levy to be a dick about it . You were mug enough to employ the guy on a contract , just pay it up and get rid . Don’t embarrass us even more by trying to get 50 pence of the severance package . Not saying he is doing that but “something is rotten in the state of Denmark” about those photos .
"Arne" is part of the first team staff. Formerly head of player security now he's in charge of logistics around the first team or something like that.
No idea who the last guy is.
Question remains, as I saw many suggest nearly every preseason..
Would you rather finish 5th with no trophy, or 14th with the Europa League?
I'm not suggesting the latter will happen, although it's a lot more likely than us finishing 5th. Ange might not be the answer, and it is looking likely that's the way, but every preseason I see people say "I'd take finishing 15th and winning a cup", but when it actually comes to it, the same people are unhappy that we're 14th and still in with a shot of winning cup.
Now if we finish 14th without a cup then obviously it is a disaster, and Ange should rightly be relieved of his duties, but I think we need to actually decide on what we want as fans of the club. Now I know that'll be winning a cup and finish between 1st and 6th for example, but when have we actually proven we can do that in the last 20 years? Only Poch got us close to that.
