That’s not what we’re talking about though. You’re talking about managers having the clout to pressure Levy into bringing high calibre players, and I’m saying Jose couldn’t do it, so no-one can.

Ange got 50m on VDV and 60m on Solanke

Granted on peanuts wages

Frank tells me that they want to cut even further and not even match what they did with Ange

Son is off to Saudi, his 180k pw wages get replaced by a 70-80k pw player with Frank installed

No chance. Frank has no experience or two games a week and this squad is nowhere near good enough to balance CL and PL. It’s gonna be a brutal slog of a season.

You can say no chance.
I am saying, I willing to bet for a charity.
We will see...

For me, this squad has really really really underachieved. This team gave up on so many games so early and didnt even try to draw games. The points haul to be had in league is just huge.

Just a mathematical exercise....
We outscored chelsea but chelsea let in 20 goals lesser and then ended up 3rd. Brentford outscored us.

Do I think, that Frank can keep the same output of goals scored ? Yes
Do I think, that pragmatic approach of him , makes us concede one goal less in every 2 games (to concede 20 less) over a season ? YES.

Ofcourse, we need improvements especially in CM. So, I will have to hope there will be reinforcements there. I am not going to wish or guess who it will be. But whoever it is, I am willing to bank on Frank in this just going by basic numbers.

It isnt a mathematical exercise , but when we dont know the final shape of squad, this is the best case I can make

Fuck are you talking about?

At this club you get what your given.

Look at the last window!

Wage-pay is the way it's going now.

Frank is a balance of both data and culture.

And thank fuck he has the former in his pocket to help ID what we need and work effectively within our procurement model.

Perfect manager at the perfect time.

You think an Inzaghi is coming here to fight with Baldcunt over an extra 10-20k a week wages for a player he requires?

People need to wake tf up.

You know that Frank doesn't do the scouting/hiring at Brentford, right? Part of their whole model.

This is just a hire for Levy to justify buying lots of no one players, cut our wage bill even more and have a yes man at the helm.

Can't fucking wait.

But that's how he acted for everyone from Poch to Conte, doesn't matter who the manager is in that instance

I think many of our fans over estimate our squad. The back five is top 5 quality but we’ll probably lose Romero, which affects everything.

The midfield and attack is average. Mid-table level players and some talented kids.

How is his record managing a team in Denmark comparable to the work he's done in the toughest league in the world?

And how does the loss you've highlighted do the same?

I'm looking at his European experience and juggling 2 games a week which he will have to do next season. Of course Brentford have never qualified for Europe even though they've had a huge advantage of never having a Thursday/Sunday grind. One of the reasons they have a small budget. They've never needed a big squad. Just generally think this is a depressing appointment that signals a clear lack of ambition. Not impressed as others with the work hes done at Brentford. It's good but not next Spurs manager good. Can't wait for you to tell me to stop soiling myself now....

He'd have input.

Like he would have with Fab, here.

Wages won't be cut more just because we have Frank.

Not sure that's even possible with the stingy packages we rolled out last summer.

Part of the reason Ange has gone is we've pissed away tons of league money for finishing in the gutter.

Baldcunt would want that was rolling back in.

All you wimps wetting your knickers is hilarious.

You lost your boy, but don't lose your heads as well.

Denying this guy is a very, very good manager that suits us down to a tee right now is tragic.
