Fair enough, then maybe it's just me that doesn't seriously think we are at any risk of relegation.
There was a period this season where it started to get a little bit too much that way, and we responded with 3 wins on the bounce to basically ensure relegation wouldn't happen. I think we were safe after those games in February, which is just as well as we got 5 points and 1 win from the next 12 games.
But teams that beat City 5-0 away, United 3-0, Villa 4-1 at home, with some other big results in there, are not serious relegation candidates. Not impossible but clearly too good. Find me any team that got relegated that won 7 games by 3+ goals and I would be very surprised.
We were found out. Simple as. Surprised it took the PL teams 10 games!
Not with the Wollongong Rhinos sniffing around
To go from a dreadfully negative, genuinely cowardly team with no spark or life that was totally reliant on Harry Kane for chance creation to selling Kane, immediately benching three other ever-presents (Lloris, Dier, Hojbjerg), and from minute 1 of game 1 playing Angeball, an entirely different philsosophy of play with entirely different principles, was a really extraordinary revolution. I couldn't believe it at the time.
That doesn't mean those principles are good or sustainable or whatever. Indeed the speed of the transition maybe speaks to it all being overly simplistic and rigid.
But Ange turned the page from a very dark moment in the club's history with unimaginable speed and decisiveness, and if he's done I think that's another thing we have to thank him for.
You see.. I don't think he should stay at all.. But I do think that reveal would bang..It would make quite the video if he came out with the new kit on , turned around and it says “season 3” on the back!
1 is actually the answer. 4th place and Champions League runner up.
No other season did we go what I would regard as 'deep' in Europe.
Maybe so. Either way, I haven't seen anything from Ange that suggests he is willing or capable to change anything up to try and capture that form again.
No. I am pointing out that yes we won a cup. Brilliant. Excellent etc great.
But you can’t ignore the league form. He is taking us to the championship.
He keeps playing in a style that injures our players. He only changed tactics in the Europa to save his reputation.
As for poch I haven’t even mentioned the playing at wembley or not buy any players for two seasons…..
Ange is out of his depth. Someone needs to call and end to the madness.
It’s the one learning to coach in Australia
Keep clinging on to your ignorance mate. It suits you
It’s a serious rumour
His second season in the Europa League Round of 32 against Fiorentina was the only European knockout tie Poch ever won here outside of the 2019 CL run.
the embarrassing thing is, the goal didn't even stand, then hes lied on top of that. he was always going to lie anyway, as hes never going to admit why he ear cupped, but for the goal to be ruled off too
At Brentford?
And then when he's sacked at Xmas, no one is going to be available...it must be done asap for the good of the team...
They will all be available in January or whenever we want them
After a career playing at the highest level for club and country, something you're deliberately ignorant of. He's not someone who's spent his whole career in Aus, Japan & Scotland before getting a Prem job is he but then you know that already, simply lashing out cos your idol is in danger, tut tut.
Really?
New kit promo was likely shot before the final and any use of ange or reference to season 3 would of had to be shot in between the parade, the Brighton game and before him going on holiday
In fairness the word has been, "decision this week".. It is only Monday.. I don't think that "no announcement" is an indicator in either direction. Because either way, there'll be an announcement of some sort.. If he's going, it'll be a club statement.. And if he's staying it'll be a briefing to the press.
