As daft as it sounds, if they stick with him AND give him the players he wants that fit into his ONLY way of playing, he would do well imho. The trouble is, there are not too many of the current crop who fit into that system and he's Not going to change his system. There's fuck all to spend and no buyers for any of the dross that is for sale certainly not at the prices they'd want and the daft wages that they've signed on at. Missing this chumps league with no other European football as a backup is going to have serious consequences. Fucking loving it. Go big, spend it all on Cunha from Wolves see how that works out for you.

I don't think his only way of playing/system works in the Prem. How many managers have tried 3-5-2 now and failed. Pep's tried it and it's not worked. There's too many gaps

I'm happy that it doesn't work he can crack on with it. My point is that he's not for Changing and they're stuck with him and his 352 system.

Quite funny that they spent a fuck load of money on players suited for a different system, he comes in and hopefully they spend another fuck load on players that the next manager won't use because they don't fit his system.

^ It'd be much better for them if he started playing them all over the place, all out of position, confusing the fuck out of them all and leaving all his form players on the bench. That way the new manager will have a really versatile squad who are ready for anything

A chap here is a Spotting fan. He said he brought his club joy after 20 years. Word was he would be our next manager.
He’s made a mistake going there. I’d pass on our kids thoughts however his black hole and mood has no reception.

Perhaps all the folks being made redundant have side hustles as builders and they are planning on doing it on the extra cheap
