Who is Pep's video analyst?
Can you name Klopp's assistant?
What about Tuchel's sports science guy?
They're only relevant here because Ole was crap so they were needed to deflect and we used to have a prominently good staff under Fergie. Even then I guarantee most people could only pick out one or two of Fergie's backroom team. That and the obsession with 'grooming' managerial successors from within; I may have been guilty it of myself at times but am thankfully wise to now.
Rangnick will get his people and hopefully he's a good enough manager that we don't need to know their names.

Completely perplexed that McKenna and Phelan are still stinking the place out.

Even today's presser was great. Talking straight to the point without any PR takes - it's easy to understand what his aim is. He already has decided to start Donny and Henderson for tomorrow. Henderson getting a run our especially makes sense since this is the type of game he should be playing.
Squad rotation? *Nani*?! *surprised Pikachu face*

Completely perplexed that McKenna and Phelan are still stinking the place out. I know, it's fucking bizarre. I was watching McKenna on Sunday and we were so lucky to win whilst he was in the dugout. Had him and Phelan not been there, it would have easily been 4 or 5. FML. |

What is everyone's expectations for the rest of the season?
I think a FA cup final ,Champions league Semi-final and a 3rd place in the league is not impossible.
If our boys sort themselves out in front of goal and at the back, We can go deep into the cups and push for 3rd(9 points can disappear within a week in Dec/Jan)

i dont think we will get 3rd. i think we will be close but not quite there.
wrap up 4th without any fuss. FA Cup Winners. CL 1/4 or Semi Final depending on how the draw plays out for us. main thing is just developing the squad correctly and seeing actual progress.
get rid of the players that dont work - Pogba & Martial. bring in some youth and bring in the right players and manager in the summer.

Obviously a proper structure to the team. |
