We’d been linked to Brennan for a couple years prior and he’s nothing like the wide players Ange has historically used. Going off topic now but I’d have massive doubts he was a priority target for Ange.
Or the club has to commit to actually backing a manager with what they need. Don’t hire system managers if you’re not going to give them the specific profiles to make it work
I think we’ve gotta stick with him. We’re missing key profiles for his system to work properly and as shit as the last 3 games have we been we are and have been better than last season. Don’t let recency bias tell you otherwise. I think there’s a few things that he must work on though otherwise...
