Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
My reason for changing managers is because they are not getting the best out of their team. I fully understand and agree with your reasoning as to why our recent managers have 'failed' but we all know it is much easier to change manager than owners.
I don't doubt that GSB have made, and continue to make, our club a toxic environment to work in. As a supporter I want the manager to get the best they can out of his team in that environment, no matter how difficult the circumstances.
I don't think Pellegrini is getting the best out of our players.

I don't know about that. All sacked or contracts not renewed, none have quit.chigwells finest wrote: ↑Mon Nov 18, 2019 11:50 am which could possibly leave mp's position here untenable , leaving him no option but to resign . usual gsb tactic .

Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
we all agree the owners are complete "£$% and shysters. however Pellegrini is clearly not motivating the players or getting the best out of them with his tactical nous.
The whole team is underperforming at the same time now and suggests he has lost the dressing room.
he has also made some strange signings to say the least. strange contracts awarded to wilshere cresswell zabaleta etc
sanchez roberto martin fornals ajeti - all have been poor at best
haller is declining as we starve him of support
not sure pelle will go after a spurs defeat but if we lose the next few games which is likely in our current form then I can see how he can survive !
spurs h chelsea a wolves a arsenal h is not a nice run of games compared to burnley palace sheff utd newcastle which yielded us a total of 1 point!
relegation form for sure and sacking of manager form !
we need someone to get the wasters running and putting some effort in ! does haller break sweat ?

The natural order will be Mark Hughes first, unless he is already tied up...

Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
Maybe you are right. I just foresee a few problems
1 - He will cost a fortune to sign from China
2 - Those who hates Big Sam’s negative approach will get to watch footy that makes him look like Rinus Michels!
3 - His record for signing players is spotty at best.
Having said that he would fit the S&G favored profile - a slightly desperate, past their best big name.
Having said that, Rafa is pragmatic enough to grind out a 12-8 place finish.

Jeez, the fun never stops at West Ham does it?

Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
Pellegrini swap for Benitez plus 5m in 10 year installments. I would be happy
Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
Have to comment on the 'If they sell for £600m they've done a great job all round'. No, they've made a great deal for themselves, nothing for the club. I'm less caustic than many about the board (I just accept they're +++++ along with most in football) but this statement is breathtakingly stupid.

Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
If the club is more valuable by 10-60X than they bought it, then by definition they have done many things right. I would certainly be more interested in investing right now than 10 years ago. I wouldn't want to work with Sullivan though, Gold and Brady I could deal with on a business level.

like I stated earlier Miklosko - checking your posts - you're a board shill.....
the only thing that have done right is con the public into funding their profit margins.

Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
They've ensured top flight football bringing with it great revenues which have been boosted by unforeseen football inflation. They absolutely ****ed the Payet and Arnie signings in my view. It wasn't some clever masterminded plan. They have stumbled to our present position. If they were adept we would be more attractive than we currently appear to be.

Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
I maybe have a different view as I'm not so emotionally attached anymore. For me its just a bunch of mercenaries running around (or strolling these days) lead by a bigger mercenary manager. Then you have the owners that are pure business men. If I had thought for even a minute they have any other desire than to make money, then I too would be disappointed. Its a big cash cow for everyone except the fans. I just enjoy it for what it is, not trying to wind anyone up, and sorry if it comes accross like that. Sorry for my spelling also, can't be bothered to fix it!

Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
might be the first time i've agreed with ironing board.
anyone who wants benitez but wanted allardyce got rid of for the boring football is either a hypocrite or doesn't know what they're asking for. steve bruce's newcastle put on a far more attacking display at the shitebowl than rafa's ever managed.
he's the perfect fit for the dildos, a big name who would do anything for the right money (hence china) who wouldn't do anything as negligent with their prized asset as trying to get it playing good football and would be a midtable certainty for as long as his contract lasted.

Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
what is it that you enjoy ?
and if you are not emotionally involved - how can you say that the board have done a great job overall ?
for themselves only. they're like those old slum landlords back in the day...Google Peter Rachman

Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
Depends on the much wider picture. I don't think ANY manager should ever be sacked based on a run of 8 games.
That said, I do find it utterly disgraceful that our season is effectively over by November. How much of that is Pellers' fault, I don't know. But he's got to take some of the blame.

A man of his experience and he did nothing to sort out our obvious defensive issues from last season.
As usual the board spent the bare minimum but nearly 30 million on Fornals and Ajeti? A supposed top manager on 7m a year couldn't identify a decent DM, second striker better than the Swiss Hugill and a couple of loan signings to beef us up?
We won't even mention the Roberto debacle. Because 34 year old goalies never get injured do they so back up keepers don't matter.
If we play against Spurs like we did in the first 70 minutes against Newcastle and Burnley it's going to get ugly.....

Re: Manuel Pellegrini West Ham United’s 17th manager
I don't have have an opinion either way on Rafa but I would say the second paragraph is incorrect. Newcastle were very attacking when they smashed us at the Olympic Stadium just before Christmas 2017Beavis Danzig wrote: ↑Mon Nov 18, 2019 8:40 pm might be the first time i've agreed with ironing board.
