Did he?

Or are people beginning to rewrite history?

He said he fell out with Arneson for a start, didn't mention Levy at all.
Given Arneson wanted Jol and, as it transpired, Jol was by far the better manager, I see no problem with that.
Santini managed 3 wins from his 13 league games. We were boring as fcuk as well as unable to win.

You also can't ignore the fact Santini went to Auxere for his next job, fell out with their chairman and never worked again.
I never said Santini was better than Jol or was any good , I said he he felt he was lied to and walked . I think he blamed personal issues initially, then said something about broken promises at a later date .
 
I hope people realise this is what happens when a club finishes 17th in the league. Everyone was acting like it didn’t matter, we won a trophy blah blah blah.

Players don’t care. They want to join a team at the top end of the table. That last year and what Ange did to us in terms of the league was so so damaging and diabolical.

Players aren’t stupid. Yeah we are in the CL but players know we back doored it and aren’t actually a CL quality sides so we have little pull.

Hincapie would rather go and sit on Woolwich's bench than be a first team player with us.

Says it all

Absolute bullshit

We are not signing top players because we refuse to pay the big wages
 
We’re so fucking amateur. Lucky we have 6 points on the board because yet again this board hasn’t got our squad ready for a gruelling season. I don’t know when they will learn to get the deals done early and ready for the manager to bed in. False economy
 
How would he fare under Frankie though? Look at the improvement of Richy, Spence and Sarr in our first 2 games ( only 2 I know) but you never know.
I mean, he never lacked effort in my opinion. But he does look like he needs a change of environment, and Richy would help him a lot in that regard here. As I said, it might soften the blow of MGW and Eze a bit, but it sure as hell doesn’t cancel it as I think he’s just not as good as those 2. He’s slightly below that level of player in my opinion, but he might be a better fit for us than Eze in the sense that he’s looks more involved defensively (MGW just looks a better Paqueta in my opinion though). Let’s say that a front 4 of Savinho - Paqueta - Richarlison - Kudus, while not elite and doesn’t have a superstar name, does look quite functional.
