Anyway, big win for us. We so badly needed that. To get it against Man Utd is an added bonus too. Hopefully we can kick on from here. The players really needed that win.
He'll get the rest of this season, and the whole of next, before Levy is convinced that we've been mugged off.
I never wanted Poch to leave, as you know. I'll back our manager, whoever he is. Our biggest problem is that we are short by three players - a decent creative mid (Eriksen is not good enough), a decent DM (Dier looks shot, Winks isn't good enough, and we haven't replaced Dembele), and a decent CB to organise our ever leaky defence. If Mourhino gets those, he'll do okay, but if he doesn't, he will revert to type, and we will become very negative, which will alienate the fans and the players, and he'll get the sack.
Out run, out thought and out played i can live with, it happens to all at sometime. Being out fought by Arsenal is unforgivable though, i wouldn't be surprised if tomorrows headlines said "Keane rushed to hospital with suspected heart attack" Most of our New years day performances are ****e, even going back to the Fergie days but that tops them all.
Levy has a decision to make now, what will be most cost effective, buying Jose the players he needs or paying off his contract.,
