Lopetegui was on borrowed time for weeks, I can only think it's dragged on this long because replacements weren't keen on taking over for what ever reason. Out of 20 league games, he's lost 9. Form like that would get most managers sacked.
Definitely. They're a club a decent manager should think has a chance of pushing on and should be keen on taking on. Certainly they should be looking to be top 10 trying for higher.
Yeah and we've had something like 22 permanent or long-term interim managers ( not counting caretakers who took charge for a few games until a permanent/long term appointment) since 2000. Scary
Fair play to Luton. They gave him a fair crack at it, unlike many clubs. He will get another shot. Did a cracking job to get them up, and gave plenty of prem sides a scare or two.
He did pretty well I thought. More or less hoofed their way up, but mixed it up and played some decent stuff at times in their season up. Barkley especially was very good. They lost a lot of late goals mind, a lot. Probably going like the clappers for eighty minutes and blowing up. Seemed to a bit unsure of how to play this season when I've watched them, but he'll get another go definitely.
