They’re lucky i don’t run a club, I would’ve sacked him immediately after the EL Final

It's disgusting and anyone celebrating this is a f***ing idiot

The next manager will be a specially recruited yes man so a former Blackburn winger can dictate and pull the strings from the shadows

Dark dark times ahead

Fascinating to see Mainoo coddled like a baby for the exact actions Garnacho was scolded for

Get rid asap

The guy won 15 PL games in 14 months. Let’s be waking up & smelling the coffee.

As a professional footballer getting paid a hundred thousand pounds a week all you have to do is shut up and play football, you're not a freedom fighter for not being picked by a certain manager, it's ridiculous

Work harder and shut up

"nothing to deal with"

A Blackburn winger trying to do your job from the shadows is probably a little something at least

But that's not even what went on. The reports, and yes they are reports that obviously stem from the club, but nonetheless do not seem contradictory with what logic we already have available, spell out the following:

• We draw against Fulham back in August. In their post match interviews, Fulham explain how easy we are to exploit. Vivell hears this and gets annoyed to the club leadership. The seed is planted that we are a predictable, one-tone team.

• Everton happens. Everyone is fuming that we never adapted to them being a man down.

• Ruben says I want Semenyo. Board say, where will he play, you don't use wingers? Ruben says, ok i'll play with wingers now.

• Newcastle at home. Rumours have been swirling that with AFCON too, Ruben will switch things up. He does, we play 4-2-3-1 and win with an elusive clean sheet.

• Semenyo picks City. Ruben rages.

• Wolves at home. Everyone expects the 4-2-3-1 again, why wouldn't we play it. Everyone transfers Dorgu into their FPL. But Ruben can't resist self immolation. We draw. Board rages.

• Wilcox goes to Ruben, why not the 4-2-3-1 again mate? We just won with it. Amorim tells him to f*** off back to Blackburn.

• Wilcox and Berrada decide Ruben's charming candor has run its course.

• Leeds away. Ruben persists with his system, draws and has a go at everyone.

We know Ratcliffe publicly backed Ruben. We have never known Ruben to waver from his system outside of Newcastle (he's switched it up in some second halfs, but never started a game with 4 atb). Despite how s*** we have been for over a year, despite the media pressure, never once has Wilcox, etc seemingly suggested he change things besides this one instance. When they did suggest he change things, which he did do regardless of not having Semenyo in, we managed to notch an important win. When they naturally expected that positive signal to continue, Ruben reverted and notched a draw against the epitome of abysmal sides.

Doesn't seem to me like Wilcox was trying to his job, just dealing with an increasingly volatile saboteur who we all have known time and again to be overly emotional and hot-headed.

In the end mans was begging for the sack.

its probably going to take at least a month to undo whatever Ruben did in training, but I hope fletcher gets back to 4 atb from the jump.

crazy that we sacrificed our entire squad to be built around this stupid formation and have no wingers but here we are. or that we signed mbeumo knowing him and amad would be going to African euros together for a month.

He was not begging for the sack he was sticking to the principles that got him hired by the club by the people that then sacked him for doing so, you can say he was stubborn to do so but you need to be stubborn as the gaffer at a big club, if he had've found a calmer tone and found some middle ground with it he might've had more time

As much as I think with more time and investment it would've worked out for Amorim, there's no point litigating it any further what's done is done and we should move forward and make better long term consistent decisions that align with the hierarchy (director of football and director of recruitment...)
