SUPERTOON

Yeah we haven’t got the structure or people in place to do the deal that quickly yet

We’d have heard by now if it was off IMO.

Hopefully this doesn’t drag into next week, i would reluctantly give Jones the Brighton game but after that we need someone in.

Not 2 days before a huge champions league game ?

More I read it and the fact nothing has officially been announced from Villareal, the more it’s seems to just be part of a negotiation tactic.

Agreed, he can’t have turned us down he’s had long enough to officially come out and say it

As it is for Emery to be interviewed 2 days before it then surely it works both ways

He clearly hasn’t turned us down then going of that Caulkin tweet

Find it a bit rich Emery complaining despite being interviewed on Sunday.

Would hope for some sort of communication at least from the club today. I would expect them to confirm Jones is going to be in charge for Brighton.

Can blame him if he’s told us he wants the job to then massively backtrack

Eddie Howe is currently in Liverpool. Hopefully talking to Everton about their job ?

Howe really is a concern for me, pretty sure he lost 19/20 of his last 28 games or something like that. His Bournemouth side was better than our current one and he was in a much better position in the table and still couldn’t keep them up.

That ship has sailed I think regardless of what happens

Hopefully there is a cut off to all this because we really need a new manager in time for the international break

I wonder why we haven’t just activated the release clause in the first place.

Still no official quotes from anyone who matters though

You know anymore details on the Emery appointment ?

Well that’s absolute bollocks

Can’t see that being the issue he’s worked with them everywhere he has been

The only positive is that there is nothing official from Villareal or Emery which you would expect to have come or certainly arrive imminently.

He’s clearly been told by Emery or someone very close to him.

To go from Emery to Howe would be a complete change in the direction/ philosophy of the club surely?
