What's next

Still gutted after the shambles last night.Who do I blame .First MrBielsa. .Before I am hung drawn and quartered let's look at the facts he was involved in the decision not to replace Saiz also involved in January window debacle involved in the signing of the worst gk in the championship.He kept saying he had solutions to all the injury problems.I hope he has learned lessons and will stay for another year with a new owner because AR seems to have very little money .They blew it big time.I don't agree with those who say it was a great season .It ended in chaos.

Over the two legs, we had some great chances and that's the story of our season. Bielsa's style will always leave holes in the defence- it works when you take your chances.

The Pablo mis hit in the first leg, Roofe shot just after the goal. Then second leg, a host of good opportunities wasted in their box.

Then they scored 4 out of 5 chances.

If you don't concede you don't lose. Therefore last 4 games we would have got 10 points and not 1

Whichever manager we get, he needs backing, that’s the perennial problem.

I’d love Bielsa to stay but not end of world if he Doesn’t, for example Chris Hughton with I think 3 promotions from championship might be a consideration.

Whoever it is, if they’re fed Ortas diet of loaners and cricks they’ll get nowhere.

Big Sam must be an amazing manager if his teams never lose.....

Lost thirteen matches Wigan Ipswitch Birminghham etc etc g.ung Ho in every match not the way to achieve promotion not good enough

We can't go from Bielsa to Chris Hughton who stunk out the PL and that's why he was sacked.

I would take quality football over winning promotion with hoofball every season.

We finished 3rd!

The lack of signings in January killed us and us having a paperthin squad.

It was a disaster going in to the season with 2 recognised CB's plus we should have not only replaced Saiz but added to the squad as well.

In hindsight, me and my dad thought it would have made sense to go with Cooper Jansson AND Berardi at the back with a back 5 and Phillips in front. Just keep them out.

my first choice would have been conte but hes now at inter Milan. I hope MB stays and is given the resources necessary. But, if he does go then I'd want Wenger as the manager. I think he is great working with young squads and ok we might not win the league but he'd take us up.
