AVB Sacked

[handsomecake]

There's no point in buying 7 new players if the manager has no interest in using them properly

well he is intimating he didn't even want some of them, so from the top down its been a clusterfuck.

 

[taricco]

Right decision.

I think he could honestly benefit from a stint as an assistant manager. He's very inexperienced and it shows, however with the right jobs he could turn his career around. Good luck to him

I REALLY hope they've got somebody in mind, a long with a detailed list of potential candidates that has been THOUGHT OUT and DISCUSSED.

It seems obvious, but this board (as in the club) has dropped countless amounts of balls.

That's interesting, which ones did he not want?

I suspect that Baldini just has one piece of paper with the word 'Capello' written on it.

Do you think that result would be the same with Vlad and Vert in defence? Sandro going off early, Paulhino getting sent off?

It was a very bad day but I think at full strength it would have been a different story.

Sturridge up front, Gerrard instead of Allen?

Of course he is. When they sign it's all "Erik is a wonderkid from Argentina with a sweet left peg, Barcelona wanted him when he was 3 and he was on Transworld sport doing keepy uppies as a foetus in the womb"

Then when things get tough it's time to distance ones self and say "not my fault guv, never wanted him".

Disappointed. It's knee jerk, I doubt we have anyone lined up and from the outside it makes us look like a joke. Sack our most successful manager in recent history in Redknapp , AVB ends first season with record points, back him with £100m and then sack him after a few poor results.

Yes we haven't been great, yes we could be doing better but the fact is we haven't been that bad bar a few games and we are integrating a whole new squad.

Small club decision by a man who runs us like a small club. Man City stuck with Mancini when they could have sacked him which led to a league title, Arsenal stuck with Wenger through years of more pressure than AVB was under, Utd are backing Moyes despite a fall from grace larger than what we are experiencing.

The more I think about it the more annoyed I am. We aren't going to get relegated, we have a good chance of silverware, where is the harm in seeing the season out? I would be amazed if anyone coming in can dramatically improve us over night.

A few more years of instability coming up I think. If we are making rash changes might aswell start at the top and get rid of the lot IMO.

You know as well as i do that facts do not matter when the boo boys start.

 

[ibbz]

PLEAT I WANT PLEAT! Love his punditry too!

 

[Wellspurs]

Sacked because 3 centre backs got injured?

 

[stormfly]

Looks like we won't be winning the Europa League now then

Sack our most successful manager in Redknapp

???

You having a laugh? What did he win?

 

[PrettyColors]

We're running around in circles.

What's funny is that I completely agree with the decision as I lost all my confidence and hope in AVB yesterday, and yet I still fucking hate it.

This will happen again in 18 months, we will sell some players, and we will yet again be the laughingstock of the league. And Daniel Levy will take none of the blame yet again.

 

[thinktank]

Like I kept saying, he was on a suicide mission.

Mission accomplished.

I think this is a lesson to everyone on how ruinous stubbornness can be.

I'm really sad tbh...not felt like this before when a manger has been sacked. Even though I'd come to the end of the road in supporting him, I'm totally fucking gutted.

I put a lot of faith in AVB and and was a fanboy from the start, it's not that he's let me and spurs supporters down per se that hurts the most, it's the fact that he could have made it here if he'd only have been a little more humble in certain areas and more reflective and more pragmatic.

All good lessons for him to now take forward but ones he seems to obviously struggle with absorbing.

If he can get over himself and open his mind irt the game and not be so ridged and conservative he could be a very good manager.

Maybe we got him too young. *shurgs*

Sad sad day, but no player and no manager is bigger than this amazing club.

COYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[nailsy]

JJ posted some interesting stuff in the AVB - stay or go thread.

 

[jezz]

That's interesting, which ones did he not want?

From what people are quoting Lamela and Ericksen dont know if true though

 

[Kendall]

Sacked because 3 centre backs got injured?

Yeah, that's the reason our football has been dour for 18 months.

 

[eppingyid]

Any manager who plays a high line with Dawson in the team deserves the sack..ffs

couldnt agree more. suicide football

 

[JerryGarcia]

This must be pretty crushing for AVB personally being the first time he's had a second season at a club and all. It can't do much for his belief but at the right club his ideas will work.

I just hope he doesn't go to Italy and then try to bring Sandro with him.
