Vitor sacked

Basically you want a manager who doesn’t mind a relegation on their CV, probably sacked in May also for it and having to work with a bunch average players. Oh and if by some miracle he kept us up he’d need to be happy to sell a couple of his assets with no real return in quality. Good luck

I'd be insistent on sales in the summer, they're all shit

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I don't hate him like I hated Lage, but the results were completely unsustainable and given that as discussed yesterday we have at best five good players, we can't afford for the manager to fall out with two of them.

Carrick is my pick but he won't save us, in fact no-one will.

I've said before that Fosun won't bin Shi until we're actually relegated and the enormity of the situation finally hits home but you would hope someone would see the rate at which we've cycled through managers for the last four years and start asking some pretty serious questions of the twat who keeps hiring them and handing out new contracts like they're fliers for a Mallorca nighclub.

Wild outside shots

Vasco Matos
Vasco Botelho da Costa
João Pereira
Cesar Peixoto

I could see them giving it to Carlos Carvalhal as well

I’d say all of those are more realistic than what the bookies are touting

This for me too. It's all on fucking jeff

 

[basher]

I do find it hard to reconcile the Vitor that came in December 2024 to the Vitor now.

He came in to a club in disarray, a shambles, conceding goals for fun. Within a week he'd sorted that out to make the team tighter, conceding less, had a shape and system, organised.

And yet now they look the same shambles and utter rabble to the one he took over from GoN!!

I guess he had better players when he took over but he played a big part in assembling this squad of players and with the exception of Krejci they look shit...

 

[nimrod]

i hate to think of the money we've pissed away on compensations and whatever bonuses for not getting relegated, never mind any overpayments on players. seriously, what are we likely to have left to offer anyone decent who would require a Jan transfer kitty.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Surely been contemplating this since the Sunderland game so must have some idea of what direction they want go, or is that what competent people do?

It’s impossible to be this incompetent. They don’t care.

Yeah sorry I didn't make it clear, none of those are my actual recommendations, they'd all be a disaster.

If Mendes is still an influence at the club then they're the type of manager we could end up going for though.

Official announcement just made and all 8 of Vítor’s staff leave too.

Collins & Walker to take control of training while Jeff bumbles along in finding a replacement before ultimately turning to Uncle Jorge for help.

About an hour after we found out:

No it isn't

That's some thin gruel, let's be honest.

They probably had to wait for Vitor to finish his afternoon nap.

Who's in temp charge for our next game when we get inevititably rejected by our main targets

 

[Jinky]

Let’s be honest, if you’re an unemployed football manager and you see Jeff Shi’s number pop up on your mobile, you’re laughing your ass off and rejecting the call.

No one of any ability and pedigree is going to look at their body of work over the last 3-4 years and go “yeah, I can work with that”.

There’s a reason my FPL team name has been ‘Taxi For Jeff Shi FC’ for 5 years and counting. The prick.

Oh god, I'd forgotten about that episode.

 

[prawnking]

Presume Teti will be gone soon too? So Jeff making the decision all on his todd with a big steer from Jorge then?

Have I Got News For You will be giving you a call for such devastating satire.

Managers will go and work for any wanker, look at Nuno. The massive issue preventing anyone good coming right now is that we're already cut adrift and the squad is full of shite.
