The Mailbox reacts to the Prem weekend by calling for the heads of Antonio Conte and Jesse Marsch. Sacking a manager certainly seems to have worked for Villa...
Salah shot ricochets off a defender for a corner. Van Dijk rises…2-0
This has been a very promising start to the season in many ways but a lingering disappointment that remains is Sancho. I’ve defended him fiercely since he signed but am now resigned to the fact that maybe it is just not meant to be. There is simply no drive or conviction in his play and he doesn’t seem to have the type of personality to enforce himself upon games.
Hate to sack managers but this is relegation form and all Bielsa’s solid work has been undone. Going down would be disastrous for our team. It was all a bit too slow and casual today but given our excellent recent form, it can’t really be considered too bad. Just a bit of a missed opportunity. I genuinely think he gets more out of his job by spending other people’s money than he does winning things.
