Not from me and I was thinking the same thing in the Tamworth game before the end

One catastrophic defeat and Ange will be gone hopefully followed by Levy!

Never felt like this before in 64 years of supporting this club!


Will be tuning in tomorrow though!

Don't think I can bear to watch...
 
Deki sending couple punches into Levy direction - good to see.

But him saying he loves system... Guess he likes it cause he does not need to care about tactics anymore, he just takes the ball and loses it many times without any consequences from manager. Quite opposite to what he used to in Italy and later under Conte.

i think the players are scared ange will freeze them out if they don't tow the line. not that he has a lot of options to do that atm but he strikes me as just the kind of thin skinned prick who would bite off his nose to spite his face with player loyalty. see: maddison
 
Of course Kulu loves him.

He’s a 1 good game in 3 player who has had a team built around him where he struts around doing what he wants.

Another coach would utilise him very differently and he knows it.
 
You dont need much expertise to see we need a huge squad with players as good as starters willing to sit on the bench and wait for a chance.
Thats just my amateur opinion

My guess would be you need 2 starting quality players for every position in the 11 and then also some very talented youngsters pushing to earn a spot. Some positions you even need 3.

But that would be the same answer if the questions was:

How big would your squad need to be if you wanted to challenge to win trophies?
 
It doesn’t really matter how many players like or dislike the manager. Results are what matter, and right now, we’re staring down the barrel of relegation because those results haven’t been good enough.

That being said, I’m glad players like Kulusevski are backing the manager because, frankly, they should be. They’re professionals, and this is their job. I can’t stand it when players “down tools” just because they don’t like the manager; it’s nothing more than an excuse to sidestep personal responsibility imo. Giving 100% should be the bare minimum for any footballer regardless of who the manager is.

That being said, results are the only relevant metric here. The players could love the manager like a father, but that means absolutely nothing when we can’t buy a win to save our lives.

Actually you could say it’s even more damning for Ange that these players ARE behind him and the results are still shit, that points to his system being the cause of failure.

And before the “but injuries” argument comes up, we should be beating Everton and Leicester, that has nothing to do with injuries I am afraid.
 
I honestly don't get how is Kulu saying he's backing the manger believable. He's the one who didn't give a fuck in tracking back and lost possessions and ball so frequently.
Might be cos hes playing him every week. Ohara said he liked juande Ramos. That was because he was playing every week. Players like managers who give them game time. Love child scenario but ferguson used to play fletcher a lot at united who was shit. Van gaal transfer listed him as soon as he arrived.
