Is it just me that thinks even though Shinawatra is going to sack Sven the guy does have a point and no matter what happens regarding the club it is going to look bad on Shinawatras part. Our pityful performance against Liverpool last Sunday was partly blamed on the disruption of our situation and players not being fully focused. Does this mean that some of our players have psychic abilities and can see in the future because if we are such a great side under Sven why were we so rubbish against Fulham(h), Birmingham(a), Derby(a), Reading(a), Bolton (a), Wigan (h+a)? He has also been criticised for not having a real excuse for sacking Sven as Sven has helped us make a vast improvement on last season. Last season we conceded 44 goals, this season with the addition of 2 defenders worth a combined £10 Million we have conceded more. This season we have scored 15 more goals than last. However we have spent OVER £35 Million on midfielders and strikers. Money well spent?? We have also only won 5 of the last 20 league games. I have to be honest on reflection, as the season has gone on especially since the turn of the year our performances have not been great to say the least. Therefore if we do bring in world cup winning coach 'Big Phil' Scolari and Ronaldinho (youve got to be honest Barcelona are not the same team without him) I for 1 will be very optimistic for next season. I also think it needs to be brought to some peoples attention who want refunds on next seasons season tickets, that last season when you renewed we were in turmoil as we were both managerless and broke whilst now we are only changing our manager to a guy who won the world cup with Brazil so guarantees us some attcking football with the crazy thought of playing two up front and we have a chairman who is willing to spend more money on new players. Seems to me that people asking for refunds are a bit crazy and narrow minded because if it wasnt for Shinawtra, Sven wouldnt of looked at us twice and he would of laughed at our job offer.
Possibly one of the best first posts ever. Well balanced opinion there.
