I want us to do some shrewd signings. Look at Leverkusen this season, signed Grimaldo on a fee, probably worth 40-50m today. They signed 8 players of a net sum of 18m, including Boniface, Hofmann, Tella, Xhaka. Why can’t we?

Where in my post have I stated that De Zerbi is an “elite level manager”?

ETH has never been a coach that instills his specific system. He has played a different style in all of the club he has managed. If we want that kind of coach De Zerbi is probably the most attainable one.

I am convinced they are going to sack ETH.

Perfect PR spin to get positive vibes on Potter? In any case, in disbelief with other, I cannot see the new management and executives NOT going for their own head coach.

You are correct with the strategy and what needs to be implemented. It is for this sole reason Ineos and Ashworth will want to have their own Coach to give time to build this.

Relax, all these rumors are from one single source, Daily Star. When did they get an exclusive reveal of anything important? This is just bs talk.

Yea, don’t really care about the in/out arguments since no one’s opinion will likely change. Do you like the way we play football? Do you think there have been any progression in how we play? Do you think 21 months are enough to show what Manager can do? Do you think we have spent enough? Do...

1. Bring in top tier executives and staff. 2. Formulate a vision of how the team should play. 3. Hire a head coach that fits the vision. 4. Set KPI’s for player recruitment according to said vision, e.g. hard-working, technical, injury free, leadership etc. 5. Manage economy in salary and...

We need an elite coach. McKenna is not one. Potter is not one.

He will be gone at the end of the season regardless how good the results are. The progression is not there, in spite of all the talk ETH does about the process. INEOS have changed Head Coach at Nice 8 times in 8 years, making it clear who is first to go when you are not playing well.

He has a €100m buy out clause and Sporting will not sell for less.

It’s a bit rich in the Newcastle forums they actually giving Ratcliffe stick for avoiding taxes. They should they a looong look in the mirror before criticizing any other owner.

Things are lining up for him to get fired after the season. New DoF will most certainly want to put his own man in charge. Also, splashing 400m on mediocre players is a sackable offense.

People want to see change and they are impatient now that the sale is complete. I can relate, although knowing that how business acquisition and management changes works it will take a couple of years to implement a structural roadmap in a company of 1000 employees.
