I've never understood the idea of the "next X games" thing.

So what if he wins the next 2 games but loses the next 3? That's okay?

They should know by now if he's the right man for the job or not.

Lewis Steele saying the same thing

Lol. Yeah, totally plausible...

Was thinking the same. The following 3 games are Inter (A), Brighton (H), Tottenham (A)...

It's a daft cliche, the next two games against relegation fodder can save a manager who's had £500m spent on his team in the Summer and has proceeded to butcher the entire thing. Yet hey, beat Leeds and we love you again Slot baby.

 

[Richey]

Well, it's not true, is it?

Can anyone really see the club saying to the manager, and making it public, that he is sacked if he doesn't win the next 2 games?

It's either totally made up (possible) or there was some agreement to reconvene in a week or two weeks' time.

so if we’re targeting 7 from 9 he’s gone if he loses at the weekend…

If he plays the same team, we'll lose.

Seven from nine reminds me of the fittest ever bird off star trek and gives me the rumblings of the horn.

 

[Halmeister]

Not sure if it's been posted elsewhere - there's that many threads - but apparently he was with the journos today bemoaning luck and missed chances. I understand you can't come out and admit you don't have a fucking clue and you're an absolute fraud, but at least read the room a little. Admit some things need to change and that you've got a few things wrong here and there...

I think this is what will happen. West Ham will beat us and it will be Slot’s last game in charge.

feels like this is either the moment slots feet reach the bottom of the pool and he pushes himself up or he drowns.

i agree such a small chance of change, he looks like he’s out of ideas

You make your own luck etc. if he's unlucky we should fuck him off to tie him to the goalpost and make Grobelaar piss on him

 

[Best Believe It]

And we'll know whats going to happen by the line up he picks.

 

[Squiggles]

The subs all hate him, the first team don't play for him, the best forward is injured, the best keeper has the wild shites, and the most important players in the teams have completely lost their legs.

True or not, he's not getting 7 from 9, and even if does somehow fluke it, it doesn't really matter.

 

[got red on me]

Are people basing this “7from9” thing on Carra’s opinion piece or a belief that Hughes/Edwards are operating on this mindset?

Feels as though the former has taken a hold here.
