Although I agree with your post, wouldn't you rather have been wrong than right?
When I have doubts about players/managers/games, I really hope that I'm wrong and would rather that than saying 'I told you so'.
I had got to the stage that as long as we won, I'd put up with turgid play, but I can't cope with horrible football and losing so badly.
I'm all for Stellini taking over, he's got a 100% record after all.
When poch came to the club (and i am NOT advocating he returns) the team turned the corner after Harry's late winner at Villa. Up until that game we were poor, but tried to play football.
The rest as they say is history.
Under Conte i don't know what road we are on, let alone Conte getting the team to turn the corner.
He now has seven of his signings, and two on loan (Gil and Udogie) that baring a keeper is almost a full starting eleven.
Turning over managers brings with it the possibility that any new manager doesn't want half of these, or his tactics mean half of them can't play a new managers preferred position and tactics.
In other words rinse and repeat.
I admire what Marinakis and Cooper have done at Forest in supporting their manager through tough times, but even their football has improved.
I believe that we do have a talented squad, but we almost never get the right manager, one with vision and long term plan.
Conte was never going to be another Poch, Jose was never going to plan for the next five years, and even before his Newcastle appointment i thought Howe would have been a good bet, and despite a bumpy start think that Potter would have been a good fit.
Levy has tried both ends of the spectrum when appointing a manager, but he has failed, and therein lies the real problem.
