There's only one PL team in a title race this season, so that's a fairly narrow definition of not being a 'huge failure'.

i didnt say it's only title race dependent though did i. If the chelsea manager doesnt win something this season do you not think he's job has a question mark over it even if he finishes top 5, same goes for Amorim. Arteta is the only one who's managed to get away without winning anything at the big clubs really
Probably means identity
Not sure why they're using local business for incentives...

You either believe in change or you don't.

Daniel Levy, you are such a bellend that my brother has decided that he is going to follow Wrexham, and I quote, “The people in charge there actually want to get the team to succeed.”
Of Tottenham, he says, “Also, Tottenham are shite. My desire to support them is at an all time low - not because of the team, but because the people in charge have no desire to improve the team, but want to make their billion pound investment bigger.”
You massive helmet-cheese baldcunt.

Yeah, but if you can spend £100m less on wages that then negates the loss of £100m of CL income (if you don’t finish top 4). He’s taken all the risk out of football, and wants to ensure control over income and expenditure. He always hated that bad luck / bad ref decision could ultimately cost the club £80m, so decided to take needing CL football out of the equation.City, United , Liverpool & Woolwich all above us in revenue last season, Champions League and high PL finish are the big earners , concerts and NFL etc can't match the money the club can earn on the footballing side.

I envy people or is that despise...people who can 'decide' who they support.
He isn’t as dyed-in-the-wool as me.
What’s that phrase? You can change your job, your wife, your car, but you can’t change your team.
But we’d still have to buy those players on £300k per week. A player making that much is worth over £100m probably? So where’s the £500m - £600m in fees coming from for these five replacements? We’d maybe get £100m from the sale of the five you mentioned, but that’ll just cover agent fees and signing bonuses for the new guys.
club had its pants pulled down on that. thats what happens when you dont know what youre doing.... if youre gonna be splashing big dough you better have people that have an idea on what they are doing.
Spot on.
Unfortunately Dimwit Dan was genuinely stung by the NDonkey saga

The first leaks suggesting they will find someone else and that the squad is good enough as is.
Cover for not spending in summer me thinks
New manager will simply be asked to win with the same schlubs. Turn water into wine and maybe we’ll spend a few tokens next summer.

the squad is a lot better than this tho that is obvious. the front line yet again needs upgrades, especially wingers. then they need a new CM...then the squad is knocking top 4. its all very achievable with one good summer window and a proper manager.
With a competent manager we should be in the top half, I agree. I think the squad is farther off than one transfer window from going higher even if we had a motivated board.
The fact of the matter is, that our 'best' team is pretty decent
Vicario
Porro - Romero - VDV - Udogie
Bentencaur - Maddison
Johnson - Kulu - Son
Richarlison/Solanke
Of this lot, only Porro and Son have remained fit this season. Yet we expect the coach to compete across 4 competitions.
The issue comes with the rest of the squad provided. Either inexperienced or lack quality.
Tel, Odobert, Sarr, Kinsky, Grey, Spence, Bergvall, Dragusin - lack experience at top level and need to develop. Fine if you are surrounded by experienced players - but they aren't, they are thrown in together.
Werner, Reguillon, Bissouma, Davies - Not at the required level
Good point. But our Net spend is right up there with the other clubs since the stadium opened. How much did we spend on the likes of Johnson, Richarlison, Solanke, Gray, Maddison etc? We need to both buy and sell better.
Personally I think that we need to stop spending on potential players now (we have enough), and buy more ‘ready now’ players on free transfers. If we drop £50m+ on Dibbling it will be a massive mistake.
Bu Dibling is only on 5K a week at Southampton! We can put Dibling on low low wages so we should pay at least 50M.
Johnson and Son LOL
