Perhaps. And you know, he may have been backed further if he had seemed more committed to the job.
He had the court case that Jan and knowing Arry he would have been talking to anyone and everyone about the England job for months.

To be fair, I can't really blame Bastoni for not wanting to join us last summer. Why should he have signed a 3-5 year contract with us when the manager who wanted him wasn't committed to the club?
Totally neglected but how much has been wasted on that list on defenders lol, only city looks decent and Liverpool one major success in VVD
Woolwich current CB's cost: 182m
Our current CBs cost: 104m
Liverpool current CBs cost: 125m
Matip also arrived in 2016 for FT, sign on bonus of about 10m, so their true cost is more like 135m
The others we will never get close to for spending.
The think about tides is they come and go.
Liverpools tide changed again last season as did Chelsea's, which probably flattered United's season as they were just as reliant on Rashford as we were Kane, and let's be honest, Anthony was, last season at least, a bit of a flop.
United, Woolwich struggled for years following the departure of their talismanic managers and it remains to be seen if they can maintain their position in a season where us, Liverpool and Chelsea end our incompetence.
Clearly players need to be sold before defenders come in.
I still think we should look at the Rice transfer.
He had a year left on his contract, he's a defensive midfielder, he went for £105m!
Yes i know he's much younger than Harry, but Harry is in his prime, and one of the best strikers in the world.
I would go for £120m for Harry

we're shit at buying and shit at selling players.
Fantastic tactic to wait until deadwood is flogged before signing centre backs. I mean who cares if the player we are trying to sign becomes increasingly frustrated or simply gets a better offer. Who cares that the selling club might become frustrated and also get a better offer.
Genius idea to approach the players you are interested in, negotiate a contract to the point that they accept terms then end up not making a bid.
I guess he would have problems meeting the bail costs, the guy is only worth around £6billion!Just realized the Kane fee will be put towards Joe Lewis’ bail fund
Squad is way too big and all the small contracts are eating space for a few genuinely decent players to come in.
If Ange was the guy that acted as DOF to choose Vicario and Solomon, he will probably do a decent job picking out what he needs.
What he can't do that a DOF needs to do is find clubs to take our unwanted and force DL to make the money work for those clubs.
“Club Signing”
I wonder if we hadn’t made that signing if we would find it easier to afford Tapsoba.
Levy knows fack all about football and needs to fack off from that part of the club. I’d rather Chirpy was in charge of the footballing operations.
Commercials, Levy is world class, Football, Levy is a substitute on a pub sides B team
£80m…..it would be the greatest day of Levy’s Life.
Apart from stadium budgets, naming rights...
Good at convoluted transfer payment plans, granted.
Good point, although I do personally believe that their is a genuine strategic reason why we haven’t signed a stadium naming rights deal yet - I think we’re using it as an incentive for further external investment.
Pretty sure it was Paratici
Paratici has been on personal scouting missing to watch Djed Spence, amid Tottenham rumours
Tottenham sporting director Fabio Paratici has personally watched Djed Spence this season as speculation continues.
Think they just missed him off but adding a 19yr old bought for £8m is hardly a game changer to the point the list makes. Most striking thing is all the clubs listed have bought rubbish but the others, apart from maybe Man U have moved them on and kept working until they get some good ones. We still have Sanchez after 6 years and Rodon after 3.
