So.... Let him scrape through on the back of a genuinely poor season by many accounts and actually doing worse off/par as last season... Then let him continue when things haven't gotten better... For half a year. Because signs clearly point to us finally figuring out how to beat a deep defence, a team that presses us, or a counter attacking team... I mean... Clearly we've nailed that down after 2 seasons... Except we haven't yet. But eventually. Next season. We will with the same methods.

If not...

And then sack him to replace with the most experienced.... No most qualified.... No wait... Most knowledgeable.... Oh no... Not that either. The guy who's never managed a team before. Yes. And hope, by all accounts, he turns it around in HALF a season now... With new tactics (well hopefully since if LvG is to be sacked in December of this year, it means his tactics have failed for sure) that not only take time, implementation and also new training methods. That take time to settle and click.

And then sacrifice the hair of a horny goat so we somehow salvage it midway.

If not? Oh well. £25m less from Adidas is all.. No big deal. Then summer comes along and we let him continue to struggle. And sack giggs in December next year if it still doesn't improve or gets worse. And maybe hire Neville next time.
