    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    I can’t fudging stand these articles that come out when our Manager gets sacked. Always some taco ‘close to our squad’ that can’t help running their mouth. It was that Poch was too ‘my way or the highway’, and Jose was too loose with his training, and now it’s that Nuno wasn’t as charismatic as...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    I’m quite curious about this too. Maybe he thought he didn’t have the authority with the players to try such a change? Weird though as our squad seems more suited to it. We just didn’t seem able to create chances in the 4-2-3-1.

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    I think we will maybe have to alter between 3-4-3 and 3-5-2. Depending on how the opposition usually sets up or what injuries we get. We’re perfectly suited to 3atb with Dier, Romero, Sanchez, Japh, Rodon and Davies. Wing backs perfectly suited. Then the rest of the team…I think our...

    The New Next New Manager Thread

    Paratici has something to answer for with the Nuno appointment. But there’s a great thing about this in that because he is trusted, we built the squad he wanted to build, and now his next pick won’t be drastically in need of a squad rebuild. It’s the DOF plan working in action as it should. A...

    Exactly what this squad needs. Let’s do this.

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    That was a really interesting part of that article. I find the idea that our players take a poll on whether the manager should continue to be a big part of the problem, but it is super interesting. I also imagine a few other players would have said Jose in, but realised as much as he was...

    The New Next New Manager Thread

    Agree with almost every word of that. (Just disagree about Nuno never being good enough) I think our club is struggling to understand our place in the game. I think we appointed Nuno thinking we could go back to the start of the Poch cycle, but the club has changed. We pay proper wages, have a...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    Massively agree. Gold is saying Paratici stormed off out of his seat on 64 mins against United and didn’t come back. I’d assume he would have been furious as he can see the players not trying for Nuno. I think Conte is the only answer, and I think now the problems in our club are as clear as...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    I’m not convinced it’s so much that Nuno is out of his depth, as it suggests our club as it’s run now is somehow that deep. We’re back to being a top 6 side at best, and Nuno has had a ridiculous amount to deal with in his first few months. I completely agree with you, no one should wish him any...

    **** Tottenham v Poocastle ****

    I feel like this was a similar performance to early Poch second season. We had spirit, we had fitness, and we had a way of playing that everyone seemed bought into. We seemingly had that today too. This game reminded me of the Arsenal 1-1 away. We absolutely dominated the game, it looked like...

    Fabio Paratici - Unemployed DoF (ban ends 30 June)

    I thought it was a really good interview. He’s not doing it to make every fan convinced he is an instant saviour, he’s doing it to manage expectations and explain the process. People can get on board with it or not, but they can’t say it hasn’t been explained to them. And I think he is dead...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    wow…if that’s true, what a flipping idiot. He could quite easily be part of the ‘senior group’ that urges patience, urges us all to stick together to give Nuno time, and he’s just out there trying to make it worse?? If true…total taco.

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    I find this hilarious, because my brother is absolutely convinced it is Winks too. Do you have some ITK on this? I’m not saying it isn’t true, it’s just so funny how so many people have come to believe it is him…especially if it turns out he never did anything of the sort!

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    I must say, I think there’s been a nice vibe from the club the last couple of days. Stories in The Athletic about Nuno’s chances of making it through this bedding in period, but then there seems to have been a counter reaction to that, backed up by Dele’s interview after the Mira game. It does...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    I can’t right now think of another managerial sacking where the odds of it being the right decision were 50/50 at best, and where a heck of a lot of people were pretty firmly in the camp of it being the wrong decision, that the problems at the club ran way deeper than him. I think that’s the...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    Would you agree the style against Wolves in the League was different compared to Wolves in the Cup? I think Nuno’s been experimenting, and he’s figuring out what each guy is capable of. I just hope it leads somewhere good soon. I can’t really take feeling like we are back to the Sherwood / AVB...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    Ehhhh…I dunno about consistency. City was counter attack. Wolves was dig in. Watford was patience and I think Palace would have been patience. Chelsea and Wolves again was more pressing. Arsenal was whatever Arsenal was…long ball. But I think there’s been some really different approaches...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    In defence of Nuno, his identity as a manager is that he’s pragmatic. That he isn’t going to come to a club with his pre planned playbook and roll it out exactly as he did before. Poch’s identity was pressing, using youth, full backs high, attacking football. So I think in Poch’s first few...

    Nuno Espírito Santo - Sacked

    I dunno. Sometimes we show up there. I remember a 1-1 under Poch where we absolutely bartered them almost start to finish and somehow let them have an equaliser in the 78th. I can be onboard with the idea the tactics were wrong yesterday. I just think Hugo had the right message after the game...
