    Is Oscar getting the support he deserves/needs from above?

    So you've included Lopez as a flop - who was here last season. Don't see how you can pin that on Burke then if all the good stuff was down to Gus before. As for March and Ince, isn't the idea to bring players through that are good enough for the first team? So they haven't really 'saved us'...

It's an overlooked problem in this world where a lot of people seem to assume we can just pick up any number of...

    Is Oscar getting the support he deserves/needs from above?

    Any manager we have is going to be frustrated by the stance we have on FFP - even if it is the way forward long term. Don't think there's anything wrong with him making the point that he can see the problems and would like to address them. In fact that's only fair as otherwise he'll be the one...
