Have you seen his CV?

Sounds like the cheap option to me? Could be a bit of the blind leading the blind so to speak?

Is this going to delay or impact us from signing Kasper?

The season seems to be split into two - Part 1) a fantastic start that we discussed and all acknowledged around the time and now part 2) which is not so good, imho below expectations and worrying. Given the talent we have I expected 6-9th so yes we are within the boundaries of expectations so on one hand im please, but on the other disappointed. Praise when you can (as I do) but don’t shy away from questioning why things have gone wrong - how else do you learn? You’re right the season is not over - we could finish 6th and that would be fantastic.............. but we wont. My issue is that nobody knows what will happen in the summer – we may keep all our best players and we may even add one or two, however we may lose quite a few and replace with average players or young players that need a year or two to settle (ala Ramirez) I don’t want to look back at the best team we’ve had in years and only have 9th place to show for it…… that would be a complete waste.

Team wise we are in a mini league with Man U, Everton and Newcastle.... so in the absence of a decent cup run id like to have seen us competing for 6th I expected 6-9th place so as it stands we are bottom of my expectations More than that, its our form since November that is a worry. Irrespective of league positions we have won just 5 or 6 of the last 22?

Yet those above us want our players? Lovren (man u) wanyama (man c) shaw (everyone) chambers (arsenal) gallagher (chelsea) lallana (man u) mopo (spurs) morgan (arsenal) jay rod (liverpool) ramirez (inter milan and juventus) reed (man u) isgrove (man u) clyne (arsenal) Osvaldo (Juventus)

Look at our squad now vs the squad under WGS. Plus WGS gave us an FA Cup final

Its funny as we could all see the Spurs winner coming yesterday - everyone it seems but Mopo who seemed to be slumped back in his chair (all game) sipping mineral water looking like he didn’t have a care in the world. The normal apologists will now offer Stuart Pearce and Paolo Di Canio as replacements if we want a "passionate manager" Not sure why Spurs would want him – Tim (never managed before) Sherwood has done him twice in a few weeks

I dont think anyone is impatient, i just think some are stuck in the past and still think we have a league one side, while others have realised we have the best side in 20-30 years. Its when you realise how good our side is (13-14 of our squad are wanted by the top sides) that you start to question the results. One win ALL season against the top 11 teams - not good enough, 6 wins in the last 22-23? games - not good enough You can make excuses all day about injuries - but every club has injuries, we simply havent managed to get enough from our very talented team.

I think he thought I had died - Twitter rumours....... Im not dead though - im alive

Every club has a few weak links, just like our weak links they dont play much!! We have 13-14 players wanted by clubs above us.... We have a better midfield than man u remember!? Our team/squad is more than good enough, some of the results simply havent been.

Didnt Suarez miss the first 9-10 games through suspension (for biting) liverpoor were top 3 when he came back, having won 6-7 of the first 10!

the million dollar question!

That's why you're MVP

I defend myself (successfully) quite alot... Can i apply?

Or......... just one win against the top 11 ALL SEASON

Lovren (man u) wanyama (man c) shaw (everyone) chambers (arsenal) gallagher (chelsea) lallana (man u) mopo (spurs) morgan (arsenal) jay rod (liverpool) ramirez (inter milan and juventus) reed (man u) isgrove (man u) clyne (arsenal) Thats 13 off the top of my head

Whats your take on it mate? I keep being told, we are where we should be.... "Our players are not good enough" Yet most of our team is wanted by the clubs above us? Why would teams above us want our "not good enough" players and why are we so scared of losing them?

No it's not going to happen, because the teams above us have better players, don't they? Yet these teams above us want our players..... Something doesn't add up

So we cannot cope when one player is out? Wouldnt reliance on one player be a huge mistake from Mopo?

Why was Points dropped from winning positions locked? Same theme, we just seem weak mentally
