Dessers is absolutely dire.

He’s never had a good game versus the ***** select and never will because he’s absolutely dog ****.

He’s making Scales look like peak Cannavaro and Carthorse Vickers peak Baresi.

His finishing is atrocious, his link up play non-existent and his press is aimless and lacks game intelligence.

Tav is also ****ed. 900 games in 4 seasons eventually catches up with guys in their late 20s.

Clement seems like a more psychotic version of Le Guen, if you look at the Genk team he won the title with, they sold 5 players for about 70m to Serie A, La Liga and EPL, in the context of the Belgian league, it would have been hard not to go close with that kind of talent

with Genk dismantled he then took over the best team in the country in Brugge, won back to back titles by 15 and 16 points, steering jobs by all accounts, he then left for Monaco halfway through the season when newly promoted Union St Galliose were giving them a run for their money

at Monaco the next season he finished 6th, missing out on europe, and got knocked out of the cup by a ligue 2 team, leading to an empty stadium and him being sacked

sevco then pick him up from the gutter and the daily ranger tells the horde hes the real deal, 9 months later hes standing in the street outside a building site shouting about shots on targets to said horde who are now apoplectic

and that is the story of philipe clement, folks

I think what's happening at sevco is a good thing for them, downsizing to live within their means, it should have happened 12 years ago, the overspending to stay in Celtics rearview mirror wasnt sustainable.

They can now start building the solid foundations for the future with no expectations of challenging Celtic, just need to find a decent manager with a good system and eye for a cheap player, and they might be in time to try to stop the next bid for 10.

The galling thing must be that the gamble paid off with Gerrard, years of overspending, share issues etc, they won the league, got to solid European level, CL money, big player sales etc, that was the time to reign it in and consolidate, but they just kept gambling on a massive wage bill.

They thought they were back as the dominant team in scotland again and Celtic would collapse like a pack of cards, and they were right, because packs of cards dont collapse, houses of cards do.

It was one gamble too many and they blew all their winnings on dominos, they're now staring at chicken and mushroom for the foreseeable but it could be worse, C&M is underrated.
