It’s just as likely if not more that they’d have already been buried before today’s games had he stayed and continued his form. Similarly you could say Leeds were right to sack Bielsa? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that sacking a manager is the same as appointing one - it’s a gamble. Leeds got lucky and Burnley didn’t. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should advise you, however, that it is already ‘tomorrow’ here, as we are an hour ahead of you, so this might skew your data. I hope this helps.

It just shows that changing managers in a time of difficulty isn’t always the right decision and I firmly believe that had Burnley held on to Dyche that they wouldn’t be in the precarious situation that they’re currently in. He was relegated first time around with them but bounced straight back up and there’s be no reason why he couldn’t have done the same if they’d gone down again. The owners of both Burnley and Leeds obviously felt under immense pressure at the possibility of them losing PL status but the in case of Leeds and Bielsa it’s more understandable with his poor command of English and if whispers are anything to go by his stubborn refusal to change tactics and style of play. Personally I hope Leeds get relegated. Interesting. See as you wanted to sack a manager who had us in the top 6, in our first season up.

I don’t remember calling for his sacking. However I do remember nearly falling asleep when watching his ‘style’……….. I was delighted when he got himself sacked.

The team, one of the most expensive in the pl have seen off a manager and a caretaker manager this season. How managers does it take to get the same set of players to perform consistently? Man Utd's problem is not the manager, I think nearly everyone except Man Utd can see this, they need a jolly good clear out of players. The players performed under Ole until they felt they needed to either put their feet up or needed a change. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the latest rumours are to be believed (dressing room divides and some players being referred to as a teachers pet) then it just shows how much that club stinks, inside out. Maybe if they had a few more teachers pets, you know, players who actually buy into the philosophy of a manager and not think they're above playing as a team, they might have done a fair bit better. I really feel for the decent lads in that changing room. Just completely tarnished and ruined because of the actions of the rest of them.

A crappy stadium (falling apart) and owners who suck money out of the club. Combine that with a fan-base living 20 yrs ago, and overpaid players - its a basket case. Ten Haag is the latest in a long line of managers who will spunk more money up the wall. Ill give him 2 seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
