Great timing. Unless they’re thinking they might get a new manager bounce without actually appointing a new manager?
Chelsea’s owners: “We’re going to axe/refuse to cooperate with a widely respected manager who dragged us into Europe with a ramshackle squad after a really rough start! I bet nobody else would do something this crazy!”
Man United’s owners: “Hold my beer!!!”
Seriously though, at least wait until after cup final before hinting at such a decision! How is this not going to totally unsettle their squad for a big match? Why don’t they just concede the cup to Man City before kickoff and be done with it!
As a Newcastle fan: fantastic timing. I’ll be rooting for City so we might get some more European football next season 🥳
Edit: well, shit …
this is not a reliable United source, so who knows if it’s true.
I guess now we’ll find out how true it is. Hopefully they keep him… And next season they continue with their league form and not their cup form.
On a related note: Why couldn’t you register that loss in one of your last league matches, Man City, you bastards!
