The team that he would inherit is nearly as poor as the one he had to deal with in the lower divisions last time around.
It sounds as though there is a bit more money about the place now so he might be able in time to buy in some better quality players with , at the moment, only Raskin and Tavenier that look up to the standard required.

A big job for anybody .

I'm going to start a narrative that the more Slot coaches, the worse they get!

Also going to add another £100M+ on how much was spent every time I mention it.

Yes, if you spend £500M you'd expect him to do better

This topic has been all about those that have been sacked, are about to be sacked or are getting a new job.
I'm not sure where your bit fits.

Can we assume that net spend of £170m for 10th is better than net spend of £230m for (currently) 2nd ?

Can we also assume that this is a desperate attempt to take your mind off the coaching prowess of the current United manager ?

Slot's team reminds me somewhat of Ten Hag's at Utd i.e. a huge gaping hole in the midfield (polo fc) waiting to get countered.

I also know the game, hence talking shit during an international break, knowing full well we could get battered at Anfield

I assume this was aimed at me ... you couldn't be further from the truth

But you crack on if it makes you feel better

A club entirely built around the new manager bounce and players upping their game to impress the new guy.

Everything wrong with football
