Kid Icarus Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 (edited) You should merge the previous versions of threads. Imagine the possibilities, the lengths of time that people can bitterly quote posts from, it'll be beautiful.

TRon Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 On 10/04/2023 at 20:00, OCK said: Football Management must be the greatest profession. Sacked if you're shite, and employed a week later as if nothing happened. Some absolutely baffling decisions made in the last month or so, I can only imagine it's in the hope of getting some new manager bounce, even if it's only a short term measure until the end of the season. Working out for Palace anyway, which is a shame since their owner is such a cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 7 hours ago, ponsaelius said: Their sporting director Lee Congerton left to go to Atalanta in the summer. Hence why Lookman ended up there rather than signing permanently. That being said I think the missteps in recruitment started earlier, with Congerton in charge. One of their biggest issues in recent years has been bloating the squad for CL/EL football and then being hamstrung on wages. A lot of the squad players or flops there have been unshiftable and left no FFP wiggle room. Partly because it's probably a great place to work as a pro - fantastic training facilities etc. Why leave? Then they've not been making big sales like they had done in the past to balance the books/reinvest - with players like Tielemans seemingly happy to run down their deals. They've ended up in a perfect storm of Vardy being past it, a load of squad players stuck around on big wages, and key players being uncommitted because they're running down their deals. It shows how fragile things are in the PL and how quickly you can fall if you don't keep your foot to the pedal in terms of squad management and recruitment. Yeah, one or two players seem to have had one eye on the lifeboat. The mistake that some owners seem to make is thinking that you can spend a lot of money and then spend less to just keep the team ticking over at the new level that you’ve reached. In practice, you need to keep spending. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
