It'll get worse before it gets better though, the wage bill is at 60% of turnover i.e. the max it can be under the soon to be implemented UEFA rules.

So we're going to have to slowly shed the crap and/or overpaid players before we can make any serious additions.

A new manager might help in the meantime but he won't work miracles with this squad.

that fat new contract for carragher is starting to look dodgier and dodgier. nothing against the bloke, but is her really worth £90k a week on current form, and what he'll produce over the next 3 years?

we might as well give jovanovic away as well, and god only knows how much of the benayoun money we've already awarded to our 'free' signing joe cole.

Yep, fair point.

There is NO way he should be earning his 90k at RB. He is not good enough there. Put him at CB and let Kelly play there.

Fuck we are in such shit, this team is a mess. Thanks Rafa & Roy.
 
He's not worth anything like it now.

Some people thought the timing of it was coincidental, I didn't. There's no way NESV would have rubber stamped it.

How does that compare to other top 4 by the way?
Also must only the clubs competing Europe conform to those rules?, because we are not gonna be in Europe with Roy next season.

More roy 😉
 
Is he reallyt gonna get sacked now though?

I feel if they were gonna do it they would have done it by now. He may have a few more games to go yet.
 
We have an International break now, let's hope Henry uses the time productively. They have to be able to see that he's not the right man by now
 
He's killing me inside.

We aren't even playing half decent football.

Shit football.
Shit results.
shit manager.

Yes, I think he should resign or be fired asap.

He's too deluded to resign, he probably thinks he's doing a good job

But he won't. He'll point to the Chelsea and Napoli wins and say THIS is the blip and we'll sigh and he'll wave, and then say it'll be ok.

Whether he does or not, he's certainly not going to resign. He's already mentioned his pay-off before, so it's clearly on his mind.

Sack him or wait for the inevitable heart attack are our only options.

Haha, Napoli. If he did state that then he is deluded, we were shit. If it wasn't for stevie, we'd have lost.
 
I'm so fucking angry it's unbelievable. Budgie can point to the form of Johnson and criticise him but he FUCKING bought Konchesky, a defender who cannot defend or cross. I'm sorry but if NESV have the balls, Budgie should be gone by Xmas. Give the new manager some funds to put this right
 
I was I coul believe this was the end, but not one part of me believes that this is his last game in charge. And that's beyond depressing

-I'm- well aware of that. I don't think he is.
 
And this guy was supposed to be a safe pair of hands!!

Giving our team to him was like asking Edward Scissorhands to babysit a pet jellyfish.
 
"It's a bad result every time you lose, and it's difficult to give an assessment straight after you've been beaten. When we went 1-0 down we were forced to take some risks and they almost got us back into the game so unfortunately not. Most of today we've defended long throws and long ball forward and balls pumped into your penalty area, so it's a very different game to that against Chelsea. It's a special game, this one. You have to defend stoutly and do more going forward than we did."

He'll be gone soon enough, but this squad has been fucked up by his predecessor and that's going to act as a great burden for any incoming manager.

I would also like him out as soon as possible but if we don't have the right man (who???) lined up, is there much of a point? Is a caretaker appointment for the remainder of the season going to be so much better than writing off the season but getting the right man in after the close?

It's tough to say this season, seeing as how the middle of the table is so congested. Fourth is there for the taking but I don't see us getting it, as much as I would like. (And with our lack of depth, could we improve the squad and first team enough to compete in Europe's top competition and maintain in the league next year?)

So in other words, it's Rafa's fault, right?

Ok, I'm revoking my cautious devil's advocacy in my previous post. Fuck off Roy. The only thing special about this game is how most of our players looked like they just got off the short bus.
