With an upturned espresso cup‘We confirm contact has been made with Robert De Zerbi’.
- sounds like they were conducting a seance

[Albion] De zerbi to Man U ?
- Thread starter saafend_seagull
- Start date
He kept telling everyone they deserved to go
When Potter left we were on a good run of form. We’re currently on a bad run of form. If we suddenly start winning again before the end of the season then I’d imagine the reaction would be very different.People cried in their own piss when Potter left, RDZ our best ever manager at this level and some people don’t seem arsed. I mean all he wanted was some help as he warned this current situation would happen if we didn’t strengthen in January
That's true, he seems full of contradictions...a complicated guy.
He frequently bigged up many of our players "he deserves to play at a higher level/a big club/Champions League level"
To be fair to Emery, I'd suggest that money and hungry players desperate to do well are what all managers need for any significant success.

He would be a manager I would like us to try and tempt away if RDZ left.
I like many were getting annoyed with him keep going on about our best players shouldn't be with us. He got his wish and has since then moaned.
Instead of moaning he needs to adapt or f*** off.

There is a chance the man has learnt since Arsenal, he bashed up Artetta tactically on Sunday and nullified them second half.

He also said Pedro, Mitoma, Enciso aren’t ready to move on

We have definitely regressed this season for various reasons.
That's pretty much true
. It was as if he was schizo:1. "He deserves to be at a big club"...(that should please Tony re the plan
,)2. "We don't have experience in midfield"...( mama mia...Tony really sold them
).A bit harsh maybe, but it feels like that sometimes to me.
They won’t be on the bench … because of injuries they have to play.It's interesting how quickly the perception of RDZ (passionate motivator) morphs into something different at the prospect of his landing at Old Trafford.
I agree with you - they would struggle to cope with him. Especially the players. Can you imagine the faces of Mount, Erikson and Diallo on their bench, as an irate RDZ screams 'f***ing focus' at them during the match?
Something in me would . . . .love to see it . . . . #badfan
Yes he did! Very complicated guyHe also said Pedro, Mitoma, Enciso aren’t ready to move on

We had won the early season games in the sunshine does that mean that much? We then went to Fulham and made a complete mess of it. No guarantee we would of achieved top six under Potter as he has a pattern of starting reasonably well before a long lull during the colder months.

RDZ 12-1 for the Man U job which seems about right. Potter 2-1. I don't see Potter as a Man Utd manager, he is more a coach. Maybe somebody's No 2 at United.

De Zerbi on Mitoma: "I have no words left for Mitoma. He's really underrated but trust me, he's so so underrated. The world of football hasn't understood the value of Mitoma". "He can be an incredible player for any manager, not just for me. He's insane". 28 Oct., 2023.
Bang on correct. I don't understand the haters on here. He succeded in bringing us to another level, unfortunately, our transfer policy cannot sustain that level of success. If he does go to UTD the rest of the league had best watch out, they will be formidable.

TalkSPORT talk endlessly about every potential player/managerial signing for every big club with United and Liverpool being the two most talked about of the big six. If you HAVEN’T heard TalkSPORT or Sky or the Mail or any other f***ing outlet talking about DeZerbi to xxxx then they’re not doing their (extremely limited editorial) job very well.
