With one of the highest ticket prices in football, CL football every season, I expect my club to be better than 3rd or 4th every season. So yes, third is middle class crap with what AW has to play with. If AW were a player, he'd be Denilson.. brilliant stats, too many side way passes.. no end product! If I were his boss, I'd move him to a different department or fire him. Unfortunately we got some old farts in the boardroom who are afraid to take a risk.
And you think if they fire him they will bring in someone worldclass? They will only bring in someone like him, so apart from on the pitch the menality of the club won't really change unless these guys go.
