Read somewhere Liverpool didn’t like how he had exclusively played a back 5. 
 

Arne Slot looks a great modern coach.  Likes youth. Doesn’t mind focussing on coaching and tactics and leaving transfers up to others without complaint. Tactically flexible. 

 My understanding is that Amorim wanted more control on transfers. Arne Slott official title is head coach of Liverpool and not manager.

 

As long as Edwards is at Liverpool, we will not be letting managers dictate transfers. We will see how that experiment shapes up.

What's the Forest owners plans? 

 

Saw Edu is going to oversee all his clubs is he planning on doing a Red Bull type thing with clubs all over the world?

 

Think he's only got Forest and olympiakos on his portfolio at the moment

Yeah, now you mention it, I remember hearing this at the time.

 

So is he going to be manager with more control at Man Utd then?

Don’t know if it has been posted here but apparently Gerrard is on the brink in Saudi and has been turned on by the Al Ettifaq fanbase, so we’ll probably have to suffer him while he sits in one of those comfy punditry chairs every week soon.

Unless a clueless club takes him up quilckly. I'm looking at you, West Ham.

Similar vibes to Ten Hags “Eras come to an end” craic

 

Definitely taken out of context the same way Ten Hag's was anyway.

Haven’t they specifically stated his role as ‘head coach’ as opposed to Ten Haag who was referred to as manager.
 

Feels like he'll have little input especially given they will want to avoid the Ten Hag style mistakes. 
 

Maybe he just thought he couldn’t wait any longer to take the next step and capitalising whilst his stock is at his highest.

Roma are a complete basket case these days, aren’t they?

 

Are these not the same people who Everton believe are their great saviours? Or was that a different version of their takeovers?

 

Yeah it's the same family that bought up Everton's debt and is trying to buy the club now. I for one am delighted they're priming the Lampard back to Everton pipeline :lol:

Thats a ridiculous decision, I know they've not started the season amazingly, but he's done an outrageous job and surely he'd earnt more than enough good grace to allow him a 14 game bad patch, which he was actually starting to turn around.

Always interesting reading the fans perspective and the vast majority do seem to this it was a mistake, although some are thinking it wasn't unexpected:

That said, although some of the early matches were in and around the Man Utd FA Cup semi final, where they were a whisker from making the final, they did end the season with only 1 point from their final 6 matches:

And this year they are on the same amount of points as Plymouth who are currently in the relegation zone, and 4W 4D 12L from his final 20 league matches isn't great reading. Plus their next 3 matches are 3 of the top 4 (Sunderland away, Sheff U home, Burnley away) and then Millwall and WBA shortly after that, so 5 of the current top 7 (top 6 if WBA get something tonight) in their next 6 games, meaning they will have played a lot of the weaker sides in their opening 14 matches, and would likely have got worse before it got better.

any word on the managerial sex case?  I’m assuming he’ll be moving on sometime soon. 

 

Have to narrow down club "boss". Media have a habit of headlining a catch all. 

If it's a manager then, given one of the claimed assaults was in the 90s, then that narrows it right down. 

British and, at least, 18ish by 1990?

By "boss" they could mean manager, director, coach, anything.
