I disagree - it sit squarely on his shoulders - he has been the manager for virtually all of the season.
They spent big in January on 2 forwards from Seri A - one of whom is totally shit.
Nuno finally got his wish and got Traore - who has been totally dhit
They loaned a centre-back from Chelsea - to be fair he has done OK.
This is 100% Nuno's relegation.

The forwards were not from Serie A- Castellanos was, but Pablo was from the Portuguese Primeira Liga, which is a different (worse) standard. THat might explain some of how bad he has been.

Pablo has scored zero goals. He was transferred within Portugal for £250K last summer, then to Sest Ham United for £20M or so last January.

Traore has hardly played, but cost West Ham United a transfer fee, and big wage.

All of that is very unhappy reading, except for Jorge Mendes who is the agent for all of those players- and also for one Nuno Espirito Santo.

You may want to read my post again. I did say that this relegation belongs to Nuno…
 
Nuno has had two consecutive terrible finishes to a Premier League season - we had Champions League staring us in the face, but couldn’t find even half a performance in our crucial home games, and West Ham have had that same vibe of late. Safety was there for them after a good run since we beat them, but they’ve lost 3 in a row. It’s over for them now.

I have no dislike of WHU whatsoever and I have quite a few good mates down there but I'll be delighted if they go down purely because of what Nuno did to us. It's Nunos downfall I'll be celebrating not WHU.

I would have much preferred Spuds to drop but any London club going is a good thing…

Hes self sabotages. He spat his dummy out because of the January transfer window. He snaked his way out of Forest and whams impending relegation is on him.

Wham will see how loyal he is in the coming weeks.

Do you think so?

He knew who was coming in

He spat his dummy out as players were being shown the training facilities prior to signing on the dotted line - he was fully aware of that

His carefully engineered dismissal was down to the fact that he had another job lined up.

He gets fired in August, Potter a few weeks later, and in moves Nuno.

Well, I would prefer Tottenham to go.

Realistically, West Ham are not going to come round trying to tempt our players away; there are distinct possibilities that Tottenham could, if they stay up.

Correct . West Ham are not a threat.
