Re: Manager Merry-Go-Round

Things can change quickly. Get a decent manager in with some knowledge of the league, a little positivity and importantly a solid structure and teams can turn it around. We know this ourselves. The Tudor appointment was a mad one, a decision like that smacks of them thinking that they thought they couldn't go down. If they course correct well there are enough players there to pick up the handful of points they'd need. Remember with all this going on, terrible choices, they've still not spent a day in the bottom 3.AjaxAndy wrote: ↑Tue Mar 24, 2026 2:10 pm I'd be shocked if any manager can turn them around. They've got the players to do it, but they aren't interested and I don't see anyone changing that.
How many will be there next season regardless of what happens? Not many imo.
It's why players like McNeil were invaluable for us when we were in a similar position, they knew they'll probably still be here the following season so staying up mattered to them. He isn't as good as most of those Spurs players but also had more reason to perform than they do
Imagine being Romero, VDV, Porro etc with your agent saying everyone from Barcelona to Man City want to sign you in the summer... Hell even Vicario is by all accounts going to Inter once the season is over.
Very few have anything to play for, and why it's the likes of Archie Gray who are actually doing their best because he's not looking to move on asap.
I don't see how many manager comes in and motivates most of these players in to giving a shit.
Genuinely don't know which way it'll go, not saying they're nailed on to stay up, but I'd still say they have a great chance as they have enough runway left.
We'll see. It's all about who comes in.
