I disagree with your comment that we are one of the easiest clubs to manage of the top 6…. Our chairman provides the 6th (at best) highest budget for the playing side of things but then sacks managers who don’t overachieve compared to those resources. If only the chairman was held to the same account by the majority owner (who clearly actually only cares about his net worth).
I dont believe Nuno's remit is to achieve top 4, in the past for other managers it was but clearly for Nuno it isnt.
We finished 7th with a better squad last year. I believe the expectation is to try and finish in top 6 if possible and play attacking football. If the ownership do expect Nuno to challenge top 4 with this squad then they are quite clearly delusional. The squad is a lot weaker than last year. We have signed a load of young players from different leagues that have been bought for the future surely.
