From how everything has played out with this managerial search we are going down. I said Frank's initial appointee was the beginning of the inevitable. The fact that this board and Moshiri have learned nothing from the repeated past blunders is beyond me. They are approaching this almost to a T to how they have in the past.
This club has no identity but to hope for fix all's and immediate gratification which currently is survival. The obsession with identity based, personality driven hires at manager repeats itself. In the same breath though they aren't even consistent in that intention. Every connection reeks of inconsistency, drama and extremes besides being known names. Along with usurping the input of the DoF. A lesson that post the failures of not allowing Brands agency and the internal review, regardless right now seems almost identical to that tenure's issues.
Currently the two most prominent leads are both volatile, extremely specific managers while also being polar opposites. When they fancy a development focused connection they go to the likes of Rooney and Davide Ancelotti who have currently less experience than Frank did. Removed of past connections to the club, cache from association neither of those names would be being considered by any league counterpart.
This board every managerial hire talk themselves into a mirage and daze with optimistic hypothetical's building on each other to the point, where they can convince themselves of most unlikeliest outcomes. All while ignoring league counterparts and the present evidence on the pitch let alone alternatives that came with more assurances.
There are better names than almost every single one we have been most connected towards, for both a present focused match to match tacticians or in regards to a project development coach with potential.
