"When there is someone with the cv of a winner give them time
Recognise where there is a mess and understand there are very few quick fixes" Red Man.

I chose this quote Red Man, because I read it non-stop for the past 2 years with LVG - doesn't it apply to him as well? We got out of the frying pan, but sadly jumped into the fire!

I have said it before and I'll say it again. People are winners until they aren't. Jose lost that "Winners" title at Chelsea where he crumbled miserably before being sacked, he has done nothing since then that suggests he is anything like his former self.

We picked another manager that is passed his best, face it and move on, otherwise we end up being also rans and talking about the League Cup and Europa Cup like they are the League and Champions League. It's pathetic, but with many fans all to eager to excuse the rubbish on display it's exactly what we deserve.

Why this manager deserves so much loyalty escapes me, he is not a pleasant man publicly in interviews, says dodgy things to the press for the fans to read, he has been with us less than a year and we are bored almost every week with the passion-less, ambition-less performances.

We need to wise up and stop getting so wrapped up in trying to play business consultants. "it takes time", no it doesn't, how long did it take Conte? How long did it take Poch to turn Spurs into a force?

He has failed miserably this season. Europa was not even on the radar until our awful league situation became all too apparent, when has been the kick on at any time this season? We have even stumbled through the Europa with the easiest draws possible yet making it look like we are playing top class teams. Resting players yesterday was a joke, especially as Vigo offer nothing, foolish and reading too much into the "either/ or BS, rather than dealing with the situation like a Man Utd manager - ie go and beat the team you play next! .

Bet he parks the bus against Vigo at home, hoping for a 0-0 scrape through. Most of you would take that as well, so we can endure 6 more 'thrillers' in the CL next year. But Ajax will play the final to win if we get through and no decent player will want to sign for us that isn't interested in purely money. As Mbappe said, "he doesn't like the way Man Utd play", sums it up!

The irony of that post Beast is that it's Mourinho's team conte has won the league with and Spurs and Poch have still won absolutley nothing!

Chorlton - why did Chelsea sack their manager then? All it shows is he was taking a team capable of winning things and destroying it. They cut out the cancer and see how they are doing!

Spurs have won the entertainment title and their energy/ desire with 10X less resources than us.

Give Poch our squad and a £200m transfer kitty and we would have been winning this league at a canter. Plus it wouldn't all be about him, Jose seems to be bigger than the club already.

Come on then Beast if Jose gets the sack who gets the job?

It's been underwhelming I agree but I can't see any better candidates out there and I trust his pedigree and CV. History tells us he'll come good and get it right so I'm prepared to be patient.

"he has done nothing since then that suggests he is anything like his former self. "

Other than win the league cup - just like he did with Chelsea.

He's also made us hard to beat and the amount of clear cut chances we have against us is much lower than last year.

Next season he will improve us offensively.

His first Chelsea side scored a lot of goals as did his Real team. We will too, but we don't want to rely on scoring 4 to win a game so fix the defence and build from there.

The football has been much better this season bar a few key games.

Oh great the entertainment trophy, I bet the fans are loving that one. 1 actual trophy this year - potential for another actual trophy. But yeah you're right looking good is the be all and end all.

LVG's CV didn't cover the EPL.
