    Ange departs

    At the time a definite decision has been made several people within the club would know, Ange and the coaches would know, their agents would know, clubs that would be interested in signing Ange would more or less know. Wouldn't be a "secret" for long imo. And for sure the club would want to...

    Leroy Sané

    I agree. Liked him a lot as a player before, not watched him much at all in recent years. But 29, had some injury problems, massive wages. Not sure that's where we should be looking unless a really favourable deal can be made.

    Contingency planning : we've found our guy

    I essentially think there's almost a zero percent chance that this season's league form is anything other than an anomaly under Ange. A lot of factors in that, but a bit of a perfect storm situation. I think the scale of change is not that massive. But I also think at this point he's most...

    Luka Vuskovic

    Having a look at him in preseason, then whoever is manager deciding what to do seems like the way to go for sure. Another special talent, need to manage his development well. Would love for him to be ready for first team football (squad option) for us. But if he's not ready for that that's also...

    Squad

    Main problems that need fixing are depth, ball progression, technical quality and creativity. Particularly if it's Ange or another manager wanting to play an ambitious style of football.

    Ange departs

    I think the longer it takes the more likely it is that he goes. Club wanting a replacement more or less fully lined up before making an announcement. Avoid a repeat of the post Conte, Stellini, Mason situation.

    Transfer thread

    Absolutely not denying that PL experience can be valuable. But I think profile fit, quality and mentality are way more important. We've made quite a few signings of non PL proven players in recent years who've settled in really quickly. VDV, Udogie, Bentancur, Kulusevski etc. We've also seen PL...

    Ange departs

    Superb is a relative term that people will use differently. I don't have an opinion on how the word should be used. My point is that we've been moving in a good direction again. Ange has been an important part of that.

    Ange departs

    I agree we'll know what happens soon enough. If he does leave now he'll leave a squad much closer to superb than the one he took over when he arrived. That's obviously not all on him, far from it. But leaving us in a stronger position than when he took over, leaving us a more attractive option...

    Ange departs

    I think perhaps the biggest difference between those who are Ange in and out at this point is those different "contexts" over time and how that's seen. From the hung over Brighton game back to Kane leaving and the mess he inherited and everything in between. Are those just excuses at this...

    Ange departs

    The obvious thing here is that both Ange in and Ange out can be a rationally held opinion at this point.

    Ange departs

    I did write performance also, I think of that quite similarly to the eye test. Do you think he's more divisive than most managers inside the club? I would have thought less given how he's kept the players on board throughout a difficult season, how he hasn't blamed the club/board/chairman or...

    Ange departs

    The arguments of the Ange out side seem fairly clear... Unacceptable results and performances over time, particularly in the league. Has been given time, but no clear change. A cup trophy though great not enough to compensate for that and keep him in the job, league results over time being a...

    Fantastic player. Really hope he stays.

    Ange departs

    Didn't United also talk to candidates before then sticking with ETH. Reportedly after other candidates didn't want to join them. That would be the worst option imo. I think this kind of situation is rare enough that looking at other examples only gives us a limited sample that won't be very...

    Ange departs

    I agree the buy in could be really important. And I want him to stay. But I do also think that both keeping him and letting him go can be understood as rational decisions.

    Ange departs

    A lot of strong opinions both ways on this one it seems. To me it seems like a close and difficult decision. But I'm Ange in. One factor in that for me is what having a win like this behind him can do for him here going forward.
