bus-conductor bus-conductor will you now concede that any configuration in MF is not the solution with this group of players?

Not sure what you mean. I’ve been saying this midfield is dogshit for the last few years. And I didn’t want Palhinha either (or Bentancur when we signed him)

I’ve gone further with it too,This team/squad is not fit for purpose and hasn’t been for quite a while and it certainly wasn’t last year either.

Will you admit that Frank deserves no more sympathy for that than Ange got, and certainly hasn’t improved performances?

Will you admit Frank setting us up the same way/players to play Fulham at home as PSG away was stupid?

And will you explain his “I always want to play front foot football” and his “I’d rather lose playing football” nonsense?

Don't you think our last say three managers had a plan to create plans to make us better???

I don't know if Frank is the answer, but what manager are gonna get a tune out of this crap squad???

When are we as fans gonna stop demanding manager after manager getting sacked, before we realise our players are shit?

And we must remember, we have missed Madders, Deki, and Solanke really really bad.

And what great managers are gonna want to come here? Levy has dug us into such a deep and black hole, that it will be almost impossible for us to climb out of.

We need to rebuild our recruitment department, get the best available in, and start there.

The only pull we as a club has left is, we are from London, and that Premier League teams pays the best wages in world football.

I still think the manager is by far the single most important part of the puzzle. Countless examples where a good manager takes over a squad that looks absolutely shite and suddenly they start performing, players raise their levels. And the opposite when a bad manager is in charge.

To be truly successful obviously you also need good players, a good infrastructure, and, usually, a bit of luck.

But right now by far our best hope of any kind of positive growth is picking the right manager who can get the most out of this group of players imo.

The clown who, after 13 games last season had us 7th, with 20 points, and a goal difference of +14. But, go ahead and tell me me how Frank is an upgrade on a manager whose second league season turned to shit but, with whom, we won the Europa league.

Ah, the 13 game seasons.

Where's Frank's Heung-min Son, Solanke, Maddison, Kulusevski etc

Dear god can we please just move on from the Ange shite.

We had a vaguely good start to last season (still had some fucking shocking losses in that run too). But then he ran the squad into the ground and we had our worst league finish in fucking forever.

Frank's shite but so was Ange. It's not mutually exclusive.
