So reading all the latest posts most are critical in some way of the management and players so maybe we can all agree it's time for a change and of course it will be the management the players will be the last to be moved on ie Arter, Cafu and Taylor are still around the club . So do it NOW Cooper's got to go I'm afraid of we go down in the next 2 games that will be enough but the new management will could do with a couple of games and then the break to coach the squad so this week he has to go for good of the club, I know a lot of you will disagree and that's good we need discussion but it's all about timing and the time is now.

There is no manager waiting in the wings who will be more capable than SC . SC is an excellent manager who has been given a very difficult job . Who in this site would have started a different team yesterday? Maybe Williams for Lodi? SC and the club on this Monday morning will be feeling very sore . SC is a realist however and knows we have two winnable games next up in which the clubs and maybe his survival depend . Neither are an ‘ Arsenal ‘, but as SC yesterday, if we played like we did yesterday at the beginning of each half it wouldn’t matter who we were playing against . I don’t think SC will change the team bar Lodi . This team controlled a not so good Liverpool side . Yesterday they were undone by that first goal and must have thought this is Man City again.

Fair play, that's your take Jester. We will still have a number of holes in the squad during the WC but a good chance to work on others fitness for sure.
Just a quick reality check though, Arsenal have won ALL their home games this season, so should be no real surprise they beat us yesterday.
I was expecting a 3-0 loss so 5 was a bit of a kick.
However, I do believe we would be crazy to get rid of Cooper. I think others have mentioned, if we do go down (which we were favourites to do so), Cooper is the best we could hope for to bring us up again. I would hate to see us going on the crazy managerial merry go round again.
It's funny how quick things change on here in a week.
