This international break is the last chance I think
If Poch survives he likely stays here till the summer
why do you say that?

My thoughts:why do you say that?
Please, bring in Mourinho now!
My thoughts:
(1) Levy hates risk. From what I've seen he always goes for less risky decision
Replacement during Dec is risky
- the new guy won't have time before plenty of games in Dec and Jan that will decide where we are
- little time to prepare for winter transfer window (you need time to test the squad players and decide whom to replace)
Replacement later is even more risky, if I recall it correctly majority of managerial changes for relegation teams were unsuccessful
In summer there are many more options for a new manager (more convenient for Levy that Jose or Allegri), transfer window, full preseason etc
(2) I think Levy also understands he's fucked up with too many unsettled players remaining (CE Rose Wanyama et al)
(3) The new guys (except for Ndombele) have barely played so makes sense to wait
(4) Our home and away form is shit since Feb 2019, no reaction from Levy . Why he would do it now?
(5) No pressure from the board, fans and media. No Pochout banners, everyone is happy
I can imagine Levy would be scared of appointing Mourinho. He'd have the reputation to get the fans on side and challenge DL's usual MO.
No way can Maureen and Levy come to agreement on funds for purchases. Maureen only buys expensive players from his friendly agents. Levy won’t sign up to that.I can imagine Levy would be scared of appointing Mourinho. He'd have the reputation to get the fans on side and challenge DL's usual MO.
Maybe Levy needs to challenge himself but you are right cannot see him going for Mourinho as it just doesn’t jiveI can imagine Levy would be scared of appointing Mourinho. He'd have the reputation to get the fans on side and challenge DL's usual MO.
4 - Such an odd thing to say... when is too soon for you, and when is too late?
And they made the change 4 points off the top of the league.And OT, Bayern thrashed Dortmund 4-0 after sacking Kovac with Hans Flick in caretaking. That's how the manager bounce can give the team such a lift.
I’d take Captain Bellend as caretaker at the moment.
Are you alright mate?
The fact that we even have to say "we need a rebuild" suggests there's been a massive fuck up in the management area, whether that's the board or Poch. That basically means that plans haven't been made, or, the plans were wrong. We've basically wasted the last 5 years of progress.
