The Kean and Gordon point I don't entirely agree with. Kean wasn't getting a look in with DCLs form and wasn't gonna be happy on the bench. Likewise with Gordon, he wouldn't be displacing Richy out left and he needed game time. Carlos had 1 full season really. Regarding Europa, the season isn't over yet. Let's see where we're at come end of the season. I think you've made your mind up and won't waiver on that and want to be proven right as you've stood your ground against other posters on the point. Just look at it logically, giving him another season at least makes more sense than sacking him for a bad run towards the end of the season. His win percentage is up with our highest managers with a pretty average sqaud, I think calling for his head is premature even if you turn out to be right a season from now.But we know Allan and James were definitely Ancelotti signings. He favours experience as he can’t be arsed to nurture young talent. That’s why he shipped Gordon and Kean out despite them being better options than some that have stayed.
Also, next season, because he’s more than likely utterly failed at it this season, his objective will once again be Europa. That’s just not good enough heading into his third season as manager.
He needs to go at the end of the season. He’s failed and he’s not justifying his enormous wage when pretty much any run-of-the-mill manager would have us 8th-12th in the league.
