I don’t know if it’s the manager who is to blame or someone else. I couldn’t care. What I care about is that the players who have developed best are the ones that went on loan. They were sent on loan not ostensibly to get game time but because the manager didn’t think they were good enough. That has been proven wrong. Saliba and Guendouzi are in the French Nt which is no mean feat and Mavro is being coveted by clubs like Bayern. Because they were treated dismissively we will get very little money for them. Meanwhile we had to pay fcking small time Brighton a kings ransom for a defender nobody else was in for.
You can keep defending the club but the facts don’t lie.
