Aston Villa turned into a top 4 team overnight. The manager makes a huge difference. I'm worried about Amorim. We wanted him in the summer to replace Klopp.
Managers do matter, but their squad is mediocre, more so than Villa's was, and their spending is starting to catch up with them and they're gonna fall foul of the profit and sustainability rules most likely.
I also feel - more important than quality and talent - many of their players are low IQ and will be unable to take on board and implement good ideas on the pitch anyway.
Might be wrong. You know I fully agree with you on the importance of the manager. But I just feel they'll never come close to challenging for titles with that squad no matter who the manager is. There's too many teams ahead of them in England and Europe.
It's a bold claim, but I have thought for a while now that City will reach 21 titles before United i.e. win at least 12 more before United win one (assuming no relegations due to the court case or anything). I don't even like City by the way, they're cunts, it's just what I think. Guardiola leaving will hurt them but they'll still be better than United I expect.
I also think INEOS are utter clowns, and suspected it from day one despite all the hype United's gullible fans engaged in.
