Told just now we are still speaking to various candidates agents etc. We still don't know who we want is the truth of it.

Levy likes Slot others not so keen. Yes we are still doing this, with everyone and their dog having an opinion regardless of how much they understand about the game. It seems just when we are starting to come to a decision, someone else weighs in that really shouldn't have a say in the bloody matter.

Oh god. We are so screwed.

I suspect that subconsciously they know that whoever they appoint will not be able to solve the problems or be successful at the club. So every potential candidate will be seen as lacking something. But in truth reality is that the managerial appointment isn't relevant because the problems are so much bigger than that.

Sounds like the same mess before we appointed Nuno.

Totally understand it. DL has made major mistakes over the last goodness knows how many managers. He has doubts. But I do recognise that he should stamp (his tiny) foot down and actually make some decisions or take council in at most a very small group of advisors. It's time to do it. I suppose its good we still have a list of candidates who would still be prepared to do it?

This is why unfortunately I don't think it will be Slot as there seem to always be so many voices and opinions and because they have no plan or vision or understanding on the football side between them we usually end up with a bad fit. Slot I think would be ideal as Ten Haag would've been in summer of 2021.

This update is not surprising as we have non football people trying to make a football decision, over analysing everything with too many voices and no vision.

So this thread is redundant really because as we've said before, The Board have zero clue really, they could wake up one day and completely change their mind so we could really end up on absolutely anyone its a roulette as to if whoever we land on is a good fit or now, lets hope the odds are in our favour this time.

I still cannot get my head around the fact that he could have appointed Poch 6 weeks ago, doubled or perhaps trebled our chances of getting his Sacred f****g Top 4, but instead put Stellini in charge and is prepared to see Poch manage Chelsea rather than admit he f***d it all up by not listening to him from 2017/18 onwards before firing him in 2019.

That is a Gold Medal, Grade A egotistical narcissism

Levy, ENIC, the whole board are poison

I'm so impressed with what DeZerbi has done at Brighton. He inherited a decent, well coached squad from Graham Potter and has taken them further in that they now score plenty of goals. He did that after they'd lost Bissouma and Trossard too. He has them playing entertaining front foot football and they have a go at anyone. I like him just a littlebit more after they've just pissed on Arsenal's chips too. Having said that, Tottenham SlotSpors has a nice ring to it too.

Totally agree

Ultimately it doesn’t matter who we appoint - give it 18 months, we will have another “New Manager Thread” around the same time that Ryan Seesegnon and Eric Dier are signing yet another contract extension
