My Alonso take: - Alonso is a good manager. Way better than what he is currently showing right now. - Do we have a right to feel slightly aggrieved? Absolutely. In an ideal world we would have looked more like a team by now. - Are we at a stage where we need to consider replacing him? Absolutely not. We need to build something slowly that sticks. We need to finally build solid foundations and sadly, whether we like it or not, that takes time. Some managers can do it quickly, some take more time. Unless things become catastrophic, Alonso needs 2 years. All the managers that some fans want to replace Alonso with all had time to succeed at their clubs. Fabregas and Hurlezer, two managers who have been suggested, are both in season 3. I am not here trying to make excuses for Alonso, he has made some bizarre choices and is overcomplicating things, but as he has said before, the team we see in May will be wildly different to what we are now. As I have always said, football can change in an instant. Let’s hope this international break we get some of our key players back and Alonso takes a deep dive how to improve things. At least we aren’t Man U!
