Pointless waiting until Monday. Everyone looking in knows the manager is an awful fit and probably should not have been appointed to begin with.

If you’re going to get rid anyway, which you are, why wait until Monday?
But the fans didn't want a manager who can grind out wins and win European Trophies. They wanted a team who can play attacking football with 30 goal attempts and not bothered if they lost 3-1

Wolves and West Ham fans....who would you want in charge next if/when you lose your manager? Any names been heavily linked?

Graham Potter is a name that always does the rounds in these situations.

Honesty football managers just become 10x more desirable when they've had no work for a while.

Potter isn't a magician, Wolves should go after Moyes.

Potter’s reputation was built on what he did at Brighton,but that was probably more to do with their excellent recruitment of players.
It’s not like they’ve suffered since he left.

Exactly that, Brighton are proof their system works - no matter who the manager is.

Not saying he's not a good manager either - could do very well at another prem side, just don't think he's as good as he's made out to be in the media.

Rare commodity these days! Not many guys in world football capable of 25+ a season at present
Yes I agree.
To many teams play without a CF but if you have one I would expect him to score given the chances they get.
Even City are struggling because Haaland is off form.

Nunez has had long enough imo ,
He’s no better now than when we bought him.

Agree with this. Taking into account what happened at Chelsea and also the fact that others have been successful at Brighton, he's relatively "unproven" at Prem level.

He's still very young. I wouldn't be giving up yet!

Potter and Moyes don't want to work under the current restrictions put in place by the owners, after being allegedly sounded out.

I don't think many managers would either, so we're left with someone no one else wants like Gary O’Neil.

Doesn't matter anyway. O’Neil has just been nominated for manager of the month.🤣
