Well that's it then. We move on.
I hope we can be sensible about our next manager. Anyone who simply says "proven track record" or "he's a proven winner" should be instantly ignored - that's how we ended up with Jose Mourinho and LVG.
This squad doesn't need a rebuild. It needs tweaks. We need a manager with a footballing vision that fits the team - not the other way around.
The likes of Ten Hag sounds fantastic on paper. If not him, surely there are managers with potential across Europe who aren't named Rodgers or Pochettino (as Neville has suggested). The latter is quite bizarre to me. Have people forgotten how dire Tottenham were at the end of his reign?
