Imagine how big the cheer will be when we make our first half time substitution in 6 years.
Still have sleepless nights about the Getafe match...
100%. He’s been waiting in the wings for 2.5 years for the right ‘profile’ of club and opportunity. Unlikely due to city and lpool but if they had poor seasons and we somehow won the league that would be his legacy nailed forever as a truely great manger one of the best ever. If he even won us the FA Cup first in 30 years that’d be some achievement to be fair.This could also be his last shot at a top club in England (at least) so he will have taken that into consideration as well before accepting any offers.
Although this involves Richard Keys, it's a very good insight into his philosophy.
Can’t believe how much we are paying him if £15m a year is true that’s insane but you get what you pay for usually.
Is this the appointment of the under 18 coachYou just keep them distracted and I'll get you all the transfer kitty money you want.

Don't do this.
He looks like someone who would enjoy measuring you up for a suit. Creepy.

I've had reservations about Jose ever since it became a real possibility that Poch would go, but I think he's the right man for this moment in the club's history.
We've got squad full of brilliant players -- a flawed squad to be sure, but one with genuine world class players at multiple positions. We've seen what this group is capable of, but ever since the catastrophic 2018 summer window there's been a pall hanging over the club which we've never been able to fully shake off. Jose will shock the players out of their complacency, swiftly deal with the malcontents, get the team organized and well-drilled in a way it has not been for some time, and instill a winning mentality in a group of players who have lacked that severely.
There are certainly reasons to be concerned over what this will mean in the long term, especially given that his traditional preferences in the transfer market are completely and utterly at odds with Levy's, but if he is given full backing in January I see no reason he can't turn this group of players into winners. He's done it everywhere he's ever been.
