If absolutely forced to choose between sacking him or Lange I suppose I would have to choose Lange though.
Lange could be put back into roles he can have some effectiveness in.
No matter how you dress it, we have a CEO that is a gooner and has been highly at fault for where we are in his only role
Fair points, but Vinai is a powerless figurehead whereas Lange has real influence over the makeup of the team.
I do think Lange is somewhat underrated, he's had some good moves here and at Villa, but his overall vision for the squad is lacking and not fit for purpose, plus he's in the way of empowering someone better.
Don't think he can, tbh.
He has a good track record with younger, lower cost players. Seems like he wanted to step up and has peter principled himself
But he's replaced Daniel Levy, who was apparently "ultimately responsible and affecting every aspect of the club"
Lange’s incompetence is more immediately evident, but there’s a shamelessness to this Vinai dork that boils my piss.
He’s just an unctuous yes man.

Ooh see how the narrative changes
I think we have plenty enough people serving cheese and cognac at the VIP lounge.
Really?
What gives you that impression?
My opinion of him and a lot of my mates who watch/listen to TalkSport is completely the opposite.
He doesn’t suffer fools gladly, but to be fair to him he’s had to contend with some right bell ends like Keown.
He's clearly flawed as he's on TalkSport and not a yacht, having lost pretty much all his money. I think he knows the game well though from a position of experience.
His main issue is talking intellectually on a platform aimed at reform voting builders
Yeh he’s a coward as well as incompetent.
Yeah that did cross my mind.
I suspect if the Lewis' wanted to make it clear the message came from the very top. Charrington is essentially the direct mouthpiece of the owners, whereas Vinai is one more step removed and wasn't actually behind the sacking of Levy and the decisions made last summer. Given the content of the statement it does kinda make sense for it to come from Charrington rather than Vinai, even if it makes Vinai look a bit weak.
Levy was the excecutive chairman, head of the board and basically ran the entire show. Vinai is CEO (we didn't have a CEO before) and has far less control than Levy ever did.But he's replaced Daniel Levy, who was apparently "ultimately responsible and affecting every aspect of the club"
The whole structure is totally different now. We're not just run by one bloke anymore. Although Vinai has done a shit job with the power he does have.
Tone deaf appointment in the first place as a confirmed gooner
The board have a habit of doing this sort of shit.
They need to learn to read the room.
