Far too early to say either way about how any day one "on paper" title contender will fare by the end. Third of the season gone may give some hints, but midway is where the stats are really strong.
Learning that he inherited a very good side from Klopp! and that maintaining a team at that level is not easy even when you spend a fortune.
i said on the Prem board yesterday that it looks like last season was his Ranieri at Lesta season The team were riding a Klopp sized wave
I don’t enjoy seeing him look so out of depth as he’s a genuinely decent bloke but it’d been pretty obvious to not just the majority of Spurs fans but many rival ones too that Ange’s football just isn’t sustainable in the Premier League. In Europe and elsewhere it could and does work but this league is far more methodical and tactical to allow “just attack, mate” to work.
He has already abandoned his philosophy and set Forest up like he did us in the Europa League. Trouble is, it still didn't work.
literally one third of that squad left this summer some of which was inevitable others baffling . Personally thought we paid hugely over the odds for Wirtz and Isak and could have used the same money to buy 4 which would help with our lack of squad depth which was papered over last year due to lack of injuries but it was always going to take time to integrate so many new players . Also Slot seems to have lost the plot considering our 2 best midfielders ended up at CB and RB on saturday
to be fair, you have bought a new CB (young but untested), a pretty expensive right back who is either still injured or slot doesn't trust, a new lb so that shouldf be covered. What other new players do you want
apart from the obvious reply to this should point out our young CB is out for the season all would probably starting ahead of Konate who seems to be doing his best to put Teal Madrid off signing him even on a free
Ange has seen Forest out of the League Cup, just outside the relegation zone in the league and he’s going a long way to messing up their EL campaign. Apart from that, he’s doing a great job. The brown envelopes from Derby County are just unfounded, malicious rumours.

Watford have sacked their manager and rehired one of their old managers. Pretty standard. Their last three results were WWD, though. Strange timing.
He was incredibly depressing and the players hated him. He had no clue. Owners need to stop messing around so much, but I'd rather have the Pozzos in charge than other alternatives...
