Vital 1st Team Regular
It’s interesting that we all seem to agree that we are in big trouble, different views as to why that is, but in terms of solutions there appear to be only two main options.
One is a complete rebuild of the squad and the other is to change the manager, again.
A complete rebuild based upon proven quality as opposed to prospects would make Levy’s spreadsheets explode so that isn’t going to happen, and a gradual rebuild with prospects and the current management team must look very risky.
Consequently, the most probable outcome is a change of manager....it is the cheapest option and would probably be supported by much of the fan base if we believe what we read in the media. However, this is also a high risk strategy in that any successful manager looking at us right now wouldn’t want to take on what is a poisoned chalice at the moment. People say that many managers would jump at the chance given the profile of the club, but right now that profile says limited funds, few class players who may want to move on anyway and sky high expectations from the chairman who needs revenue to fund his theme park.
Its going to be interesting times in the Chinese usage of the words.
