How much of this stadium has sucked the attention of the upper management away from the playing performance?
I suggest that a new stadium with a premier league team is a bigger deal to Moshiri (and Usmanov) than if we're 4th or 14th.
As long as we're not in the bottom 3, then why worry? Was the performance of Silva and his eventual sacking the wake up call to re-focus on the playing side with getting in Ancelotti? Is the pathetic derby just gone, whilst a debacle, a necessary evil if it focuses attention on what is happening in the first team? I hope it is and that it is a blessing in disguise.
