Well I think Nuno needs to go. But the rot goes far deeper than that, and you're probably right in that it will likely be more of the same until we have a change at the very top (and I can't see that happening so we're fucked).

If we could at least bring in a manager who will look to play attacking football, that would be a start.
 
He will get a few more games. I really wanted to keep him for the season as mid season there isn’t really any replacements. However in terms of football Ryan Mason was far superior and I wanted Mason gone as soon as we got a new manager.

That Mason has been better than Nuno in terms of tactics and football style is quite alarming. If it continues then I would rather Mason be brought back and that is on its own a poor situation.

I read Gallardo is available in December, that could be one to watch out for.

The next three are pivotal. It isn't looking good though. Actually dreading the West Ham game so what does that say?

The problem with football these days, and it is wider than Spurs, is that replacing a squad is far more expensive than replacing a coach.
You end up with a state situation when the coach has lost the dressing room and no matter how good that coach is, he can't get them back onside. It happened to Poch, it happened to prime Mourinho in the early Chelsea days. It happens. I suspect eventually it'll happen to Pep and Klopp too. Probably Klopp sooner because Liverpool can't recycle the squad as regularly as City.

So the cheap solution is sack the coach and hope the next one can get the squad back onside.
Our problem is that everyone apart from the idiot Levy can see our squad is past redemption. No one is going to make the dross play better. The only way back from this mess now is an absolute guarantee from Levy that the squad get's a full overhaul no later than January.

The pain is 2 fold. The shit we have isn't worth what Levy thinks it is. So he's going to have to suffer the indignity of selling it for peanuts. But then the quality we need to replace it is going to cost a lot in fees and wages. He's going to have to take the risk. Fuck FFP. Fuck Covid. Pay it.

What people don't seem to get with FFP is that you can over spend. You have 3 years to re-balance the books.
Do it. instead of going for D list players, get the A-list ones.

that's one hell of a strategy... but worth contemplating. If you can spend 3 years budget in one season then not add to it again would you? Would that new team bring in more revenue in that three year period via shirts, league position, CL place and cup runs, etc. to mean you might be able to add to it in year three.

Everything Levy has banked on winning over the fans after the ESL debacle has bit him in the balls, none more so than keeping Kane. Paratici wasn't what was needed and his appointment Nuno likewise.

Levy problem is that rather than running the club and leavingthe football to someone qualified to do so, he feels he needs to take control over that too.

Hopefully he admits he made a huge mistake pre-season and gets us a new manager and a decent DOF and gets rid of deadwood on and off the pitch.

is anyone seriously worried about relegation? Do people feel confident Mason can avoid it?

All of our stats point towards a relegation battle. It's early days yet but if this clown remains in charge I can see us being embroiled in one.

The most damning stat is the distance covered stat, we are dead last in 20th place. That tells me the players aren't playing for him, and as he is a new manager you would expect the players to buy into his vision at least to start with.
I think they know he was like 10th choice and have zero respect for him.

Never rule anything out. Depends what his motives are. If Levy came along, turned on the charm (if he has any) and offered him lots more of the green stuff then who knows these days. If however Potter wantsan easier life with lower expectations at Brighton then like you I can’t see it

He's got an abundance of it, keeps it in his wallet, as I'm sure his Mrs can attest.
