Just checked, he has a contract through to 2024. £50?

How much do you think we'd have to stump up for Dias?
Just checked, he has a contract through to 2024. £50?
This isn't about Poch mate. This is the Jose thread.
I'm not suggesting for a moment that there aren't any circumstances that carry over from the previous regime, of course, there are, but that's the job! He was employed to "sort out" the problems if there were no problems Poch would still be the manager. Every new manager at their new club has to deal with those issues, just as Ole is, Ancelotti is, Nigel Pearce is, Ralph H is, Arteta is, Conte is etc. etc. etc.......
The questions that need to be asked are 100% legitimate. How has he done dealing with the problems? How has he done finding solutions?
His appointment is dividing a fanbase, not uniting it. Why is that?
But the whole point of the stadium move was the move to the other level, in the first two transfer windows we’ve spent when most said we won’t.
You obviously have your mind made up, did you see us spending £200m in the first case?
I hope you meant £50M if so that’s not beyond us and if that’s the opening salvo then there’s a deal to be done surely
I think you have missed my point. We won't spend and we don't spot bargains but mainly that JM only buys proven players. So he gets Smalling for £20m, that leaves 30m and if we keep Fernandez, there's not much left for anybody else. Who are we going to sell to get funds? KWP, Rose ? Both of these will need replacing with 1st choice players. We have spent but only GLC looks a good addition, unless you can tell me why Ndombele and Sees have played so few games?
According to Levi, that's the whole budget !
According to what the papers say Levy said, what’s the content of his last press conference
We obviously bought Ndombele to replace Eriksen, that worked well!
This window will determine the next phase. We cannot fail again.
Its not unrealistic to expect something better than how we played in the last 12 months of Poch. Im grateful for the good things he did, but for 12 months he wrecked the team he built.
I’m sure someone else who can be bothered will supply a list of where we benefited from ‘a bargain’
Both Sess and Ndombele were highly coveted by our fan base and applauded when signed. I know it’s frustrating but things can turn around quite quickly.
I’m not trying to change your mind
He had to go. Can’t see any way forward under his outdated methods and what ENIC require from our coaching team to be successful.
Levy made a error, the worst thing he can do is double down on it out of sheer false pride. Pay him up and let’s start afresh.

He has sorted some problems though. Rose and Eriksen have left the club, those two were a huge issue. Toby‘s contract was an issue that has been sorted. Wanyama has been released. Tanganga got the opportunity he deserved after a strong preseason.
On the pitch we are struggling but what can any manager do in these circumstances? He has tried everything. We have tried playing attacking football, we lost to Wolves because our defence cannot manage transitions properly. Yesterday we tried to play defence first and hit on the break, our defenders did well but the keeper chucked the ball in the net and our tired, unreliable front players couldn’t score a goal.
Its not like we are getting battered every week, we are losing games by one goal playing football that looks more or less the same as what we saw last season when Kane was injured, only worse because Son and Sissoko are also missing. We only added 3 new players and 2 of them have been injured for most of the season. I think some people are not really appreciating how stretched our squad is right now. Based on last night it’s possible that Bergwijn, Lucas, Lamela, Dele, Son, Sissoko and Kane could all be unavailable for the game on Saturday? Poch warned a long time ago that this would be a painful and difficult season. Mourinho has said the same thing. Why are people surprised that it’s happening? This is a squad that went almost a year without winning a game away from home. People need to adjust expectations and stop expecting this team to do anything other than work hard. At the moment that’s all we have any right to expect, because our two remaining match-winners are injured.
Without knowing the full mechanics behind our transfer dealings it is absolutely fair to say that Rose, Wanyama leaving were absolutely nothing to do with Jose. Poch wanted them both gone and the club failed in selling them.
He wanted Eriksen, he absolutely didn't want him sold and tried to convince him to stay (as did Poch).
Personally, the decision to reward Toby with a new contract hasn't exactly been rewarded with great performances from him, I think he's been crap and watching GIROUD run past him like he wasn't there you have to seriously question the judgement on this one as poor. I'd rather he put faith in Tanganga, Foyth, Dier and Sanchez than with Jan and Toby.
"He's tried everything" What?! If that is the case just how fucked are we?
We ARE getting played off the park most weeks mate.
That would be our entire transfer budget gone ! Are you sure?
Great post except Foyth has to go. Too many lapses, surely we can do better.
Yes. Anything’s better than that boring dictator.
Not my ticket you fucking bell end I was joking about people throwing they down as a joke read it properly twat.I thought your support wasn't in question? Then you throw ur season ticket away? Nuff said.
Yesterday, someone I haven't seen for a while said he wouldn't mind if we lost every game, if it meant Jose was shown the door. I really don't get that attitude. I want to win every game, no matter who is playing or who is in charge. Club First every time, not personal agendas.
Am I a bell end or a twat? Quite hard to be both, and you were joking as a joke, sorry didn't see that jokey joke, stick to the day job Luke.
