Not sure what anyone expected. Firing Conte and putting his assistant in charge is another to add to the long list of Levy fuck ups since 2019.

There was never any logic to it.

People are going to pile on Stellini in the next few weeks as our results will continue to be shit but he should have never gotten the job in the first place.

We had a manager who refused to sign an extension, fired him two months after the window closed - when we bought a player for his system - and didn't have a contingency in place so have a career assistant coach as our head man, while our DoF is on a LOA for a totally foreseeable ban.

Don't let the shortcomings of Stellini let the person responsible for this mess escape - the buck stops with Levy

Putting Stellini in charge and expecting a reaction was silly, he hasn't changed anything, not even the bare minimum (change of formation).

There is no evidence of actual coaching/tactics taking place, everything was better last season.

Selfish.

You can’t expect much from Stellini or Mason for that matter, we just need to see the season out and start the rebuild in the summer.

Do I have any faith that the board will get it right? Abso-fucking-lutely not.

There literally is no point at this stage. Just got to limp through now, as there was zero forward thinking going on.
There is every point. We will pick up more points playing a back 4 under Mason than we would do by flogging this Stellini sized dead horse for the rest of the season.

He looks totally out of his depth. It might seem pointless getting rid now with not long left but this is going to get nasty very soon because the team is a mess.

Yes, it's not pointless. At this point it's about dignity and they can't let this continue to the end of the season. The Conte people has to go, all of them.

Harry until the end of the season please. Just get a bit of belief about the place. Can’t see us winning any of our remaining games with London’s 6th best Antonio Conte tribute act in the dugout.
