At the end of the day noone forces him to stay and sign new contracts, if he wasn't happy he could walk, 6 million a year probably keeps him happy though, it's money over football at the end of the day.

He's not a victim in all this, he has a choice, he chooses to stay and get paid handsomely for 4th place.
Hmmm.

Well, I happen to believe that he thought he had a squad good enough to challenge. And based on last year (pre fuck up) he did.

Think the dolly's may have gone out of the pram when Nasri and Cesc went though. So I'm expecting us to invest in January. Just my take.

Yes, he has fucked up. Yes, the project didn't work. But you only have to look at him to see how fucked off he was last year; And the additions he's made this year (and for peanuts) would show to me that he's ditched the project, and taken a good look at himself.

Just my take.
