I felt sorry for Remi Garde. Came into a very toxic atmosphere and got not help from his senior players. As for Vertout, Gana, Amavi etc we had some very good players good players there but at completely the wrong time. What a fucking shambles of a club we were, to see how well some of these players we signed have done. It is so frustrating, we could have kept these players and built a great team.
Tim Sherwood and Remi Garde really were absolutely useless tossers.

Many of them would've done well under DS management imo so yeah signed them at completely wrong time.Veretout similar style to Luiz and could certainly do with a Gana type now sticking his foot in to win the ball at DM.

What a shambles we were as a club though.

I thought Garde was very much the Admiral Donitz of the club taking over at that point. The momentum was out of control, effectively, and working with that awful squad and the useless twat who owned the club at the time, we were practically dead and buried.
