Sacked in the morning…

Post With Kind Regards »

He got sacked in the morning…

Haven’t seen anyone else post this yet so I will.

Frankly I would rather they kept Ten Hag for the rest of the season but there you are.

Moyes must be the obvious choice surely…

Given the amount of money spent on their squad albeit much of it wasted ie Antony from Ajax for twice what they could have had Kudus for … you’d be astonished if they couldn’t finish above us.
Bloke has a job on as they are miles from a title challenge with a stadium to finance & fans who still think it’s the Fergie era.
They aren’t in the reckoning for the really top players either
Where would you go if City, Arsenal or Liverpool wanted to sign you?

Sullivan, all roads lead back to him when it comes to underachievement as a club on the pitch. Outdated, narcissistic, prefering to do business like a market trader, cheap as possible, nod and wink, ducking and diving.  We got Lop because he was old, had the Spanish National team on his CV ( bling factor) but above all else would be an appointment Sullivan could “control” as yet again it comes via Will Salthouse his trusted agent.

As mentioned on another web site, by definition a te like West Ham has to take a risk on an up and coming, young manager who is “unproven” in the Premiership because otherwise richer teams than us will always get them.  Brighton and Bournemouth take those risks and other clubs but not our little Napolean.  He’s an idiot but we knew that already

We’ve never finished above Manchester United since the PL started.
Even when they’ve been poor they finish above us.

I make joyo right on this one.

He's taking over a team riddled with talented but poisonous egotistical personalities and he'll need to move at least half a dozen on in the January window, probably at a fairly great cost to the club, to get some sort of stability in the squad.

As per usual you have a negative view
I personally think he ain't gonna make much of a difference at Manure and we will finish above them 
He might be successful or improve them next season,no chance this season

You can thank Sullivan for that, should it happen.

The main box he ticks is that he's unemployed so he will be cheap. However getting rid of Lop won't be. So he stays.

I see Amorim is confirmed. 'Too risky'* for us but not for man u.......

*Too expensive seen as compo would be due, and he doesn't have the right agent.

So when will Sullivan make a move for Ten Hag?

Nailed on as he ticks nearly every Sullibox and more - especially his favourite "It's what the fans want" one.

No doubt he's giving them the Lopetegui Look of disapproval he often does when he can't quite understand them or in a condescending way for putting up with their idiotic questioning..

From what I have seen from the bbc football live report the first two questions for Loppy at his pre match press conference are about Amorim & Ten Hag
We are playing Forest you banal press cunts

Exactly that- he's all about the 'Old Boy's Club' and winks and favours and backhanders within that closed circle while the world has massively moved onwards and upwards to doing things objectively and professionally. He's an owner still living in the 80s and 90s.

Sullivan wants a “cuck” to manage the team. I doubt he’ll get a young manager with his own ideas who will challenge him. Sullivan is an old school business man. Prefers doing business with people he gets on with rather than people who are competent. That’s all it is.

West Ham source reveals the reason why they rejected Ruben Amorim as they searched for a manager in the summer - despite him flying in for an interview - as Man United deal looms | Daily Mail Online

So he went for the guaranteed shitter option instead.  👍
And you can bet if he doesn't do brilliantly at Man U Sullivan will be crowing about it in the media 'Told you so.... I know best etc.'
If he does, there will be a hasty revisionist version of why he's not here. 'His demands were far too high.'

We're a joke club with Sullivan in charge.

Amorim would have been the positive forward looking choice
Should have trusted Steidtens judgement & letting him meet Sullivan was a major mistake

Sullivan PR machine in overdrive defending him on pulling the plug on Amourim for Salthpuse’s client Lopetegui.

Hmmm, per Shakespear in Hamlet “The lady doth protest too much…”.     His need for control and little man syndrome inadequacies it emanates from, strike again.  He’s praying it goes wrong at the Mancs if Amourim is appointed or just like with his decision to not pay the Duran extra few million, his disasterous foitballing decisions will be clear as day for everyone to see yet again.  Sullivan just should not get involved but his “need” to feel big and powerful and not a small man psyche is too syrong as it has been since he was a child. 🥴

Also you have to throw into the equation that he saved Everton from relegation.
