Even without Eriksen, Rose, Toby etc. With the players we have, we should be getting top 4, we should not be anywhere near the position we are in. A good manager should get the team playing again. I hate players not trying (especially with their privileged lifestyles), but it may be we needed to freshen up the management.As I said the current situation isnt all on Poch. But it looks to me like players just arent responding to anything he says or tries. In a way he'd lost the dressing room.
I've seen lots of managers at lots of clubs bigger than ours, and managers bigger than Poch, unable to turn that around. And it was Poch who continued to play Eriksen, Rose, Aurier, Toby, Verts etc (love to know what that Vert issue at start of season was really about).
Hopefully a new face, voice and fresh ideas will give us the kick up the arse we desperately need.
You cant compare him shifting Adebayor early on to now. We've been woeful for almost a year.
Im sorry to see him go and probably more so when i see who we bring in but this was going nowhere imo and something had to be done.
