Of course we can compete. It doesn’t mean top managers will come here though. Leicester sacked Ranieri and ended up appointing Craig Shakespeare before taking a bit of gamble on Rodgers. The elite level managers weren’t exactly queueing round the block to go there where they? And that’s a team that had won the league and were in the latter stages of the champions league. In a much better place than we are now. Unfortunately we don’t have very much to offer at the moment.
Again I repeat, this doesn’t mean we can’t compete though. It just means that I doubt we’ll ever get an “elite” (use your own definition) manager. Doesn’t mean we can’t make good, clever signings and get a decent manager in it’s just they’ll always come with a degree of risk and no guarantee of success.
The thing is you dont need a top manager.
You just need a half decent one and a ton of dough. We have the funds but just need a Mancini/Ten Hag/Rose/AVB/Biesla type to have us seriously challenging the top 6 who will inevitably have the odd bad year like this one which we can look to exploit.
Moshiri hasnt a clue about football and it shown with the appointments of Alladyce and the current fella.
