    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    It's a massive gamble, no question, but as a football manager he is the right level, and regardless of the cash thrown at him, he (in his mind) isn't coming here to get relegated. The piece I find interesting is I think RDZ got them over a barrel, everyone is talking about the salary, the avoid...

    Tyrese Hall - on loan at Notts County

    Very little .. Caribbean teams have zero budget

    James Maddison

    We missed him, his problem has been managing a full season, if you look at his career, it's elite level half seasons, followed/proceeded by decent level half season, could be fitness/fatigue, hopefully time out has helped him find that hunger and he can get back to a top level (it's kind of his...

    Guglielmo Vicario

    As I said earlier, he's not included in the Italian squad, Italian press would have asked their manager why, and it would be out, this is just the club getting ahead of it

    Xavi Simons

    I don't want to go into it (people get emotional), but he covers it in an interview post leaving, summary, we could have done more to facilitate what he was going through to allow him to play for us longer (think like King), we didn't.

    Igor the Departed

    All fair, I would say they haven't been many 90 minute performances this season, the last 225 minutes have been an improvement. Tudor seems to be improving the team (fitness, passing, pressing), I didn't see much improvement from Frank (can't credit Gray's improvement on him, he started first...

    Guglielmo Vicario

    I'd assume we had to explain his exclusion from Italy squad (or they would have)

    Xavi Simons

    Can't agree, there is a lot we could have done and keeping him another 18 months could have had a huge impact

    What was the trigger in our downward trend?

    100%, and hilariously that can be translated into -> the moment the club chose not to fire a manager early when results started to go to brick. Which everyone outside the club still portrays as a bad thing (narrative that giving a manager time always equal a good thing). While there was some...

    Stadium Move Success or failure? Have your say

    It is undoubtably a success, both for club and area, and as with most infrastructure projects, in the long run, good investment. As @Bullet said, any kind of survey now will probably skewed towards negative about everything about the club.

    Igor the Departed

    Training video of him telling the players they need to help each other out, they need to make themselves available/open for pass .. me likey. I also think he's hinting at he'll find the players with the fight vs. just who on paper should play, as a few more come back, might be interesting if...

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    It feels like Frank has driven you to some alternative view of Ange mate. I don't think firing Ange in anyway belittles the Europa win, I've never even heard anyone think of it that way. In some ways the trophy win may have been chalked off as "monkey off the back" but all the "it's only...

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    Mate, he didn't win a single game for Forest, you want to go back and look at his last 10 for us? Frank at least got that initial decent run of away results, Ange wouldn't have.

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    Fair, but I think if had bought 2 more mid-level journeyman players (say 25M each from continent), nobody would have been talking about youth players. And this is broader mismanagement, the risk of losing 50M on 2 players we need to dump in 12-18 months was far less than the risk we are...

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    And we will lose games is guaranteed. Frank was truly an awful appointment, he lacks the charisma of Ange and it seems he walked in thinking he was building from 17th, in reality what we needed was a manager who treated last year as an abnormality in the league and demanded instant and...
