Bad ownership in a nutshell, isn’t it?
Hired a technical director who clashed with the manager who had found a way of playing that perfectly suited their squad’s strengths.
That manager lost the power struggle and left the club but not until the season had already begun. The attempt to overhaul their style of play failed due to bad timing and a bad appointment and now they’ve opted for a “safe” pair of hands who is looking past his best.
So now they’re not good and facing a relegation battle with a squad full of players that would get into numerous sides above them in the table. And there’s really not anything they can do because they’ve played all their cards already.
I’d feel bad if their behavior since returning to the league hadn’t been so obnoxious. They’re basically been lower table Chelsea, buying anyone and everyone and seeing who’s good enough. Fuck ‘em.
