  1. Madness.

    I want to stay up at all costs because relegation hurts me deeply and I think it would kill the club.

    But I really can’t see how this appointment makes sense, even if he’s a good manager.

  2. The breakthrough is a blank check.

    Generational cash for the de Zerbi grandkids as he spends the last four years of the contact chilling in Ibiza.

  3. Knowing how things has been going under Vinai, Lange and the Lewis nepo kids, we’re going to get relegated regardless, rendering the entire PR fiasco pointless and only serving to lose the club money and alienate the fans even further

  4. What have we done to deserve this? I seriously can’t back this man and genuinely don’t know how I should feel if he does well

    Beyond the rapist apologies, debatable tactics, stretches of dreadful form and temperamental relationships with players and boards…

    … we’re also getting a coach who is being dragged back to work fast sooner than he wanted. Just what we need in a relegation battle – a guy who still has half a mind on lost vacation time and that shelving unit he didn’t get around to assembling.

  6. I don’t think this is a great appointment to be honest, I don’t see him keeping us up he needs time and that’s one thing we don’t have.

  7. The club had the easiest open goal PR tap in with rehiring Poch next season.

    Instead, we’re hiring a manager with dubious morals that falls out with people wherever he works and never lasts more than a couple of seasons.

    I can’t wait until we’re using a chunk of our transfer budget on paying severance to yet another failed managed.

  8. Overrated manager.

    Less PPG than Tudor at Marseille with a better squad.

    Less PPG than Hurzeler at Brighton with a MUCH MUCH better squad. Caicedo, MacAllister, Gross, Estupinan, Trossard, prime Mitoma, Dunk and Webster CB.

    Overrated manager who benefited from the Brighton model like Potter.

    Yk we’re gonna end up firing him in like 2 seasons when shit hits the fan

    Bro is literally Conte with less achievements

  10. LIke he will be anything but another embarrassing explosion of ego that’ll divide the club as we fall apart again

    We are offering him a huge 5 year deal for him to play 7 games, get us relegated, decide he doesn’t want to manage in the championship and throw his toys out of the pram until he gets sacked. Then we spend the next 5 years paying huge wages we cant afford because we play in the championship.

    Super cool idea👍.

  12. From Frank to De Zerbi. Does this board learn absolutely nothing from previous experiences?

  13. Why would anyone offer him a 5 year contract. That is absolute lunacy. He won’t make it two years, why in the absolute fuck would you give him a FIVE YEAR CONTRACT!?! 

    The people leading this club are the absolute worst.

    Going down whilst showing hole for De Zerbi is very on brand for this new board.

    As if they couldn’t make us more of a laughing stock.

  15. At what point is legally considered malpractice? There has to be at least ONE PERSON ON THE BOARD that sees how insane this is right? ….Right?

    Sure, why not also buy Mason Greenwood? Maybe coax Adam Johnson into returning from ‘retirement’?

    Not watching this club anymore. I’ll watch a relegation fight, I won’t watch a relegation fight with a SA apologist in charge.

    Im genuinely starting to hate this club, just relegate us at this point. We need to get rid of a lot of losers at the club
