"Posted the same last year. Nothing has changed, except win don't win matches anymore. I'm fed up, we can do much better"

Totally agree. A top name manager would come if you paid them enough money. Poch and Tuchel both out of work. Offer them 10 million and huge bonuses for league and conference league win they would come . Even if just a 6 month contract.

"Iron Duke 11:56 Mon Jan 16 Except Sullivan was listening to fans about Pelligrini. Most on here were fucking ecstatic about him coming, the dopey fuckwits. btw, if they hire Benitez (which I doubt) then I genuinely hope we go down. It would be nothing more than the filthy dwarf would deserve."

Or it could still be David Moyes of course.

"It is quite clear that Sullivan hasn't got any imagination or inspiration when it comes to choosing managers. He still thinks that he was listening to the fans when he appointed Pellegrini. To paraphrase from someone else, he will dust off his Rothmans 2005 yearbook and hope for the best. In that sense, Benitez wouldn't be the worst choice. It could be Steve Bruce or Mark Hughes."

zico 11:43 Mon Jan 16 Be careful what you wish for... Juan Sheet does Plenty!

Think your all wrong the new manager will be ...... Jack Sullivan (

oops *their

"So pretty much every manager we have had since 2010 had most success, er pre 2010! Bar Bilic and Pellegrini but to be fair any of us could have won the title with City that year. What odds are they offering with Benitez taking over and standing on the touch line in a full Zorro outfit!"

"Whilst it is reported as bollox if you read there articles at the bottom they both fire the caveat - for now So I read that as discussions are advanced, Moyes gets the Everton game and the bullet after, replaced by fatty Frying pan and fire - the bloke is grief within a club too, won't end well"

"Are player transfers actually ""real""ù money? I don't get why our club can lose 20+ million on the value of players (Haller, probably Paqueta the way it's going) and not want to pay out for a decent manager? Every business I've ever heard of pays the manager of that business the most money. Or at least deems it the most important staff acquisition. Why do club chairman not see that? Why does Sullivan not see it? Every top manager is available if you offer enough money. They idea you can't get a decent manager is just ridiculous. Don't spend 25m on a striker. Just use the money on a top manager. It's obvious."

"I suspect Sullivan's managerial due diligence is about as thorough as if taking on a work experience kid for the post room, or some old dear as a check out assistant. 1. Are they fee free 2. Are they cheap 3. Will they give me any grief 4. Will they do what I tell them and not rock the boat 5. Have they done something in the past that lets me justify their appointment. 6. Will they use my preferred agent 7. Are they fee free 8. Are they cheap Their 'shortlist' of touted managers as usual lacks any kind of flair, inventiveness, or ingenuity. The same old tired, lazy names that quite literally anyone could come up with and predict. Brighton get De Zerbi. Wolves get Lopetegui. Villa gram Emery. West Ham...courting Benitez and Dyche. Woeful."

The only Sullivan appointment I was remotely excited about was Bilic and that didn't end well either. Pellegrini just had me scratching my head. BFS was what we deserved and needed after being relegated and ended up effective if boring. Moyes second coming was hardly inspiring and despite stumbling upon a winning formula initially he's reverted to the level of grim struggle we've always associated him with. Rafa signing would just extend the string of mediocrity and relative failure that has blighted their tenure. I'd take him if it meant staying up and any new owner firing him and getting someone more progressively minded

The Moyes sacking with Benitez coming in cannot be bollocks. Grasshopper confirmed it.

"I honestly think a lot of our players would step up with a better coach. They look bored, depressed and unmotivated. There is no response anymore. Look at Newcastle under Eddie Howe. Yes, they have spent money but their best players have been Almiron and Joelinton who were nearly always played out of position by that other tactical genius Steve Bruce. He just left West Brom and the new guy Carlos Corboran (ex assistant to Bielsa at Leeds) takes over and wins 9 out of 10 matches with the SAME players - who were clueless and stinking the place out. As we know the managerial money go round is a piece of piss because most chairman are quite clueless when it comes to understanding football. Apart from BFS, Bruce, Moyes, Pulis and Warnock there are people who I suspect interview really well like McLaren and that Michael Appleton bloke who is supposed to be a tactical genius but everywhere he's been suggests he is a mediocre journeyman. Plenty of foreign bosses are like that too - so you need to do your research properly to land a decent one there too. The trouble is our chairman appears to be in the midst of a full on Colonel Kurtz mode and he knows it's only a matter of time before his rule is coming to an end but doesn't quite know exactly when. Maybe that's why he hasn't sacked Moyes yet...he is in the very same boat!"

Might be time for another pitch invasion if Moyes is being given even more time. Fans have to save Sullivan from himself and themselves / West Ham because the poor judgement of the fvckwits in charge is simply off the scale

"Dr Matt 8:49 Mon Jan 16 Re: Moyes Out Deserves to leave on his terms in the same way a Klopp, Ferguson or Guardiola would. You need integrity and class to realise you have enough money and then resign. David is waiting for the sack and the pay off."

"Corberan, Benitez, either one would be a bollocks appointment. But saying that, anyone in the world is better than this Moyes shaped stubborn dangleberry that just won't fuck off."

"I know you're excited diehard, but what does that mean?"

Benitez been confirmed bollocks by ex and steinberg

Can't stand benitez but it really is anyone but moyes at this point. What's going on behind the scenes is a joke

"Not sure which is scarier, the fuckwits in charge giving Moyes more time or those same fuckwits picking a replacement."

Anyone will do. Just get Moyes out.

"Touch tight, SBBB, touch tight."

Hope they have the nationality and assume from there its Fatty but is actually Corberan

Waiter. .
