2024/25 Kevin Thelwell



Think its well known, no?

Cant tell if youre serious. The owners went for premier league proven.
I hadn’t seen that. Not sure why it would make anyone not be serious about it considering it’s his job to purchase players so can assume he.dod so.

Seems strange that he was allowed to spend most of the avilable money that season on Onana with no PL experience, and to then allow him to buy Beto and Chermiti for most of the money available just a year later with no PL experience.
 

Literally no reason not to stick him on garden leave and replace him from tomorrow. If he is not getting a new contract, which he isn’t, then he has no further responsibilities.

We aren’t going to need a new manager before summer (and if we didn’t he shouldn’t pick), he should have zero involvement in lining up purchases for summer, and he shouldn’t be involved in negotiating contract extensions for Gana etc.

Hard to to judge him. He’s had a very tough gig. Thought he might be onto something when he started communicating with the fanbase via little club updates. Didn’t keep it up though. Same as all other promises of communication, through some very weird times. Lip service.

Overriding impression…💩
 
Brought in some good players, brought in some duds - as all DOFs will, a perfect hit rate over three years is basically impossible - but, for me, it's what he hasn't done that's the issue.

There's been a need for many years to address the full back areas, and we've not come close to doing it. And the failure to bring in pace in the wide areas is unforgiveable. It's been one of the squad's biggest limitations ever since he got here.
 
Was in the Athletic that Kenwright, Moshiri and Lampard wanted Premiership experience.
Fair enough. It’s one of those that people used to throw at brands as a negative about him not being able to do his job because he got overruled etc (as if it was his fault and he should have walked rather than taking the wage etc) whereas it seems to be excused for Thelwell.

If we are sticking with the DoF model then owners need to let them get on with it.
