Anyone in the away end caught on camera swearing at our manager should have have their loyalty points immediately...

Sent to me! :levyeyes:
 
So what is Harry doing these days... wasn't he making eyes at Leeds a bit last year? :harrysmile:
 
Just dont want Levy to cheap out, go and get the best manager he can

I think he needs to go, but calling him a fat cunt like that is not called for.

The players haven't downed tools.

The problem is Ange, himself, just doesn't have the right tools for the job.

So the players' energy is being channelled badly through inadequate and unsophisticated tactics.

Ange is a stubborn, quietly obnoxious, passive aggressive a-hole.

A deluded old romantic who thinks he's found the key to football and thought he could rock up to the prem with "wait 'til they get a load of me" energy and cement his name in history.

His intentions are earnest, overall, but he's been high as fuck on his own farts for too long and been finally brought down to earth.

Like I've been saying since the end of last season - for Ange's limited way of playing to succeed in the prem, he needs quality tactical players throughout the squad.

Not gonna happen here, and no club will take that level of a punt on him, now.
Him being high as fuck on his own farts is precisely the reason people are reacting is such an emotive way towards him, a more humble man may have had a little more empathy tossed his way.

But alas…

Has he ever said anything like, "We know that wasn't good enough. That wasn't up to our standards as a top club, we have high standards set for ourselves and we're going to get it fixed and do better"? If there was accountability in that respect people might stay on board, but it's always "I'm doing what I do mate" kind of stuff
 
He’s so far out of his depth it’s unreal, I would feel bad for him if he wasn’t such an arrogant twat who thinks because he won the spl a few times that he has it all figured out. But it’s not just him and his lack of ideas and amateur backroom staff, it’s the missprofiling of players between him and the recruitment team which is really fucking us.

The squad were assembling doesn’t suit the football he’s trying to play and it’s incredible he doesn’t realise this. 3 transfer windows and we’ve had no link to a technical ball playing 6 which is the cornerstone of any team who tries to play this way, we compensate for this by having Maddison come deep to get the ball which is not his game, he’s best higher up in and around the box. We sign wingers who are suited to counter attacks rather than technical one v one wingers and then we sign a 3rd choice centre back who can’t use his feet. The only signing he’s made that actually fits the way we play is van der ven. Even Solanke doesn’t actually fit this team other than him pressing well, if you look at solanke goals last year majority are from crosses. He needs wingers who take on their man and put balls into the box, whereas our wingers main strengths are running in behind to get on the end of moves.

It’s a mess but there’s enough overall quality in the squad and enough time of the season to salvage something if we bring in a proper manager who will play to our strengths and correctly identify the areas we need to address and the type of players that we need to address them.
 
He’s got the look of a dead man walking, the vibes are the same as they always are before a sacking.

Players jogging around, can’t defend, can’t create chances, injuries, terrible fixtures, I don’t see how he recovers from this. He doesn’t seem to have any answers.

His tactics only work when the opponent gives us huge space to play, like United and City did. When a team actually works hard to stop us playing, we have no answers. None.
