Lindelof on £100K a week was the last straw for me.

Has he been sacked or has he walked?

I get the feeling that some of the players weren't happy with how things were conducted over the summer & that's led to a lot of discontent.
Monchi seems to be the fall guy, whether it's justified or not.

Hopefully this is a reset.

Good riddance.  The bloke who replaced Allison with Olsen at Roma. Says it all.

As SGT would say, the whole club smells wrong at present.

I remember him saying that.

He also said that the fan base was "hurting", and that he would rather lose a game by trying to win  rather than lose a game trying to draw.

It's not just his signings but his failure in sales as well. People leaving so late in the window really shafted us.

In fairness, he can't sell players clubs don't want to buy.

A few months ago we had FV on here talking about "Monchi Magic". The moderators got rid and everything has fallen apart since. Jim Morrison's band on a helter-skelter.

True, I can't imagine it's easy, but that's why he's paid the big bucks. I wouldn't want to be dealing with players to be fair "What do you mean you don't want to move to Saudi?! They're offering loads. They have beheadings and everything, help us out, mate".
