He's not been at the club with the exception of two games for the past 6 weeks. My opinion before then was he should be our manager so I don't really get how so many people have changed their opinion in a time that he hasn't been here. We're playing butt ugly football, but that's what we signed up for when we got Conte. We're 4th on the ladder, with a shit tonne of issues hurting this season (Ventrone's passing, Conte's gall bladder, Bentancur ACL, poor work AGAIN in the transfer market, Son forgetting how to play football). Despite not even having him around lately we've still managed home wins over City and Chelsea. The Sheffield result stings, but is the answer to get Poch back to rectify that - a guy who notoriously didn't care about domestic trophies?
I'm not saying I don't understand it - personally I think the only managers in the last decade I've actually wanted out when they went were AVB and Nuno - but I'm shocked how unanimous the vote is.
David Pleat 2004 , I think but I’m not 100%
Charles Bronson (not the dead one).
I'd love to see what happens if this lot dared to slack under him like they have for the last four or so managers
Well he is a Yid. So ticks one box at least.
Mason will be our next manager
Put my vote in for Carrick. Ideally I want De Zerbi but I think he'll get bored of the lack of ambition after a couple years and go to an elite club.
The fact that Carrick has just started out as a manager is a positive for me, it means he can grow with the club and stay here for a few years and build something.
All the other choices are good managers but I don't think they'd stay here for long. They'd just be there waiting for another club to offer them a contract. Carrick isn't there yet and would have to earn that first which is why I think he'd be the best fit.

I don't know but I don't want it to be Conte. The main thing that upsets me about him is his refusal to try, to keep saying "I can't do anything with these players" after a spineless 2-0 defeat.
In my book, managers worth having get more out of the players they've got. We've signed seven players in the last two windows which Conte has failed to integrate into the team; he has refused to bring these players on as substitutes to try and change games when we have been losing; he has refused to claim the slightest bit of responsibility for our failure to compete with Woolwich, Man City and Man United this season. It's always on the board, never on him.
Even if we do win the CL, I still want him gone in the summer. I don't trust him to give his all for the club. Goodbye and good riddance.

Oh yeah I forgot about that. I now remember he was wearing a Spurs shirt in that recent TV documentary.
His first match at the new lane will definitely be an event. I really hope I'm not sitting next to him though.
That would be 'interesting'.
Conte.
But I want him to come back and commit to the club. I want him to say positive things about us. I want him to be backed with his players in the summer. And I want us to play better football.
If not, Poch comeback.

I struggle to believe you’re actually flabbergasted that shit football and shit results has left Conte extremely unpopular.
It’s a good article
But he's had great results and won major trophies before us, and you can put your house on he'll be doing exactly the same after us.
As
AberdeenYid
said, back him with the players he wants. If we're serious about winning that's what we'd do.I'm fed up of being a long term project that never wins anything.
None of us are getting any younger
Maybe we can all chip in to get him the seat next to Levy.
No diff between Nuno's run here and Poch's then?
.........Keep reading this, but it's just moody fluff. ......Of course it matters!
He’s stayed for a 3rd season at 1 out of 9 jobs. One one of which he was fired… he left the other 7 willingly. Where do you get “he needs more than a couple transfer windows and patience”?
Conte if ENIC decide to invest their own money to match the elite teams.
Poch if ENIC continue as they are, as it would at least give me someonw to admire within the staff (assuming Kane leaves anyway)

Thomas Franke or Zerbi. Frankie would have to .stop bloody chewing though.
