Why does....

On expectations after the departure of Gareth Bale last summer:
‘We’re taking out one of the best players in the world and replacing him with seven players who have never played in this competition before. How on earth did people think we would be title challengers or even make the top four?’
--------

Even then I dread to think of Hughton's tactics next season, if we do get him.

Also JH:

Win percentages almost always dip the longer a manager is at a particular club

Hold on. Don't all managers want money to buy players. It's what they do with what they've got that matters!

Some work better on budgets than others though.

True Kanga mate 👍

Mackay and Laudrup won't make do and mend, no chance.

More chance of Ferguson coming out of retirement than Laudrup. The guy's ego cost him the job at Swansea. Thought he was too big for the club, had his mind on his next move rather than focusing on current affairs. apparently.

Agree jh, if we are going for am English coach, he's the best of a bad bunch. Don't get the mackay love in. He got a bad deal at Cardiff but he spent facking millions last summer, was always near the bottom and it's not like Cardiff played like Barcelona

Agree with Harry on Mackay here.
50m spent on players, agent fee, wages and then asks for more money in the summer, if I'm correct?

I'm very suspicious of Malky Mackay....

1) He was sacked by Tan and commenced legal proceedings against the club to recover what he was presumably owed under the terms of his contract.

2) All of a sudden, Malky drops his legal claim and publicly aclaims Tan as being the good bloke.

I wonder why.... Does Vincent have something on Malky or has Malky been a naughty boy ?

Wouldn't like to see him at the Albion thats for sure !

No, I don't want Malky either 👍
