Pretty much agree, seems a very naive businessman and knows nothing about football or the players. He put blind trust into MON and backs him with millions then MON proceeds to put players like Harewood on his list of transfer targets. If the vision was a top 4 place, then why would you want MON. He never was a top premier league manager and didn't have the contacts or knowledge to sign top foreign talents. Could you imagine Man City starting their spending sprees with a manager like MON in charge and sticking with him for years. No it was never viable and yes I understand it was an Ellis appointment but Lerner must of agreed to it prior to the sale.

Yes, everything he did for us is deleted now. He is now a poor striker that would struggle to get into our team.

Well at least there's no more hope to be lost.

How the **** did Lloris concede that goal??????

With the amount of money coming from broadcasting (more than double), how is in anyway preparing for the championship anything but a catastrophe. Its no surprise his fortune came from inheritance. I agree that spending net 40 million every season was non sustainable but going to the other extreme and spending like a championship club and selling your best players only ends up with relegation.

Not sure why people are giving up, a couple of wins and we are back in with a chance. Also remember towards the tail end of the season where teams who have nothing to play won't be up for a fight so we could easily get a few wins (just like wigan did for years).

The fact he's come here in the position were in deserves a lot of respect. Moyes turned us down even though he was on the brink of the sack and is now touting Europe for work. Give this guy all the support you can, he could of got a much easier job but chose us.

Unfortunately you can't stop inbreds from supporting the same club as you, though I would question if any of them are supporters.

No need to of sacked him just demoted him to u21 coach. Problem solved.

People such as Sherwood talked about the losing mentality the players had. Well that only came from one source and that's Randy. When he decided to longer support this premier league club as a premier league club and finance it like a championship club. It was only signing Benteke that we have lasted this long and lets face it, it wasn't like Everton signing Lukaku the guy was unproven in the premier league so partially good fortune. Did he really think he could get away with a net spend of 9mil after last season. Deserves everything that's coming to him.

No surprise, whenever you get any optimism about this club no matter how small it will crush it from you the following week.

Pointless discussing luck, look at the goals we conceded against west brom and stoke.

If it was forced upon us I would be happy with Lacazette.

How much were QPR asking? 15 mill? A little overpriced but with the premier league money rising how can he be overlooked. I reckon Sherwood threw the toys out the pram when he didn't get Adebayer, it was him or nobody.

Baffling how we went into the season with one main striker, even if Gestede was banging them in what if he got injured?

Tim Sherwood thinks about himself first and the team second. Did a job coming in but the warning signs were there with the Southampton and cup final results.

Bit far, but I want his snake reputation to stay with him and haunt him for the rest of his life.

A positive start, hopefully confidence restored. Looking at the table we just need 1 win to get back into touching distance so just stay positive and this will turn around.

Why the **** didn't we hire Nigel Pearson?! You couldn't make it up. I'm sorry but 98% of ex footballers (Gary Neville and some others are in those 2%) are complete and utter idiots. We think this opinion is ridiculous today, because of course we're being optimistic this week. But for all any of us knows he could be absolutely right. is he Bollox he's As right as all the people on here who have been adamant for he last five seasons convinced we are down and out after 10 odd games. Give me a foreign manager with new ideas and who knows more than the 'English' hustle X do bustle crap I've seen for the last God knows how many years. It might work. It might not. You certainly don't know that it's going to work, so I don't really see how you're in a position to say 'is he bollox'. Will that prove that Nigel Pearson was the better option? Stopped listening to Merson a long time ago, he was against the Sherwood sacking because we sacked a young yet clueless manager which must of reminded him of someone.

They don't seem to have any knowledge outside of Liverpool and Manchester.

lol @‌ Gardes wiki bio (Villa Scum SOTV).

I agree with Norwich and Bournemouth but regarding Newcastle they always find a way to implode even with very good players and they are playing well and not picking up points is not a good sign.

I see Leeds fans are buying a majority stack maybe we should get a few quid together and do the same.

Replacing Benteke with this sack of shit and we wonder why were not winning many games.

Unfortunately we missed out on Allardyce who would of done a job like he did at west ham and gave us a good chance of staying up.
