They are but Romero, Bissouma, Spence, Bentancur, Davies, Sarr, Kulusevski, Porro and Richarlison also fucked up under Conte as well. I'm not sure 4th times a charm with that lot.

That’s the best explanation I’ve seen tonight
But why did it take so long for him to tell them all to “Run about a bit”.
It's not, they need to be sold with whole bunch of other players.
He had to make changes as the squad is paper thin right now but he chose to do his usual pick the players he likes the least to take off rather than actually the changes we needed. So Tel was dragged off who was leading the press but Muani who looked leggy and Porro were left on

Agree with your post.
But VdV, and Spence, and today Tel for the second goal, keep losing possesion in dangerous areas leading to goals. VdV is terrible in playing out from the back and he is more often than the others the cause for our turning possesion over to the opposite team.
Majority of them are the exact players who should be sold though because they really aren't good enough
I didn't want you to tell me how we played differently in the 2nd half (I have my own eyes). I said I'd love to know what was said at HT (and specifically by who!).
Id rather have that train on touchline than frank. Has more charisma.
We know he hasn't coached it
We know he has never set them out to do it
Either he's given up his principles or given up control...

that’s just what it looked like to me. There was a little look. Might be wrong though
I never liked this thing in the summer of 2023, that "we don't want a manager who acts like he's doing the club a favour. We want someone who is lucky to be here." Honestly, that idea felt so small time. You want a manager that's above where you are at that moment. That's maybe too good for where you are at the minute. That's what we had with Conte, and if we went all in, maybe he would've brought us up to the level that he's belonged at for the last 16 years of his career. We wasted that opportunity, because a manager of that calibre isn't coming at this moment.. But look at this lot who we played tonight. Villa spent their first few years back in the Premier League spunking money away in windows and flattering to decieve. Wasting time with Gerrard.. Then they go and spend the money to get a manager miles above their station.. And look how he's dragged them up to his level and made them relevant again. They didn't waste time with this chump change, small time "oooh let's get people who feel lucky to be here" bullshit.
We've got west ham and Burnley up next. If he manages to stay next week he should be gone if we don't win both them.
Totally. We've tried to be clever and hipster with our last 2 appointments and it proves yet again we're not Brighton. We dont have the smarts. Like our signings we try and act clever but dont have a clue.
Why not give the new coach those 2 as less brutal start than the games that come after?
Indeed great game to start off with , west ham at home
His game plan of defence failed so it was desperation to let the shackles off.
The season is over, it really doesn't matter now. The club needs to spend the next few months identifying the next
