Harry Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 I’m thinking Thomas Frank will replace him.

SecretSam Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 That's disappointing, he was doing a great job of keeping them terrible. It's an interesting comparison between ManUre and Chelsea - the latter having been seen as a mess, but now really showing positive signs; the former also a mess, but not improving. I'm hoping that the Ineos effect that has worked so well for the former Team Sky will continue with ManUre, i.e. catastrophic fall off. They've probably put in place a structure to take the club forward, but it's a bit of a mess, the squad's all over the place, and the ground is in need of huge investment. So sad, too bad, never mind. 7 minutes ago, Harry said: My 2+2 is adding up to Frank to Man U. Hopefully Frank Lampard 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fpcity Posted October 28 Share Posted October 28 Not a Southgate fan myself but might not be the worst appointment for them. Would steady the ship I guess and give them a solid foundation which is needed.
