    He might have been but that team was not performing when he arrived. Fact.
    Are we winning?

      "Leonardo Jardim still lives in Monaco and sees the players in the street when he goes to the bakery. He's the favourite to replace Henry. He had amazing results, winning the league in 2017, before this season when things didn't go well for the team."

      He got an £8m pay off also at the time

        Which is why they brought him in.

        Turns out he was **** and couldn't get the team to perform.

          Well lol, if it was that simple, anyone could have done it by your logic?

          Turns out they're bringing Jardim back.

                Right up there with the most predictably **** managerial appointments in recent years, and there's been some competition.

                  You could start an argument in an empty room. Fact.

                  Henry was guaranteed to be a disaster.

                    No he wasn't guaranteed of that. He was given a team at the bottom of the league, with players that either didn't want to be there, or were too young to really compete. They sold their 2017 team when the going was good, and made amazing amounts of money. So it was a rebuilding job for him. Fair play to Henry for backing himself in that situation.

                    Its easy to say he was ****, when in reality the situation he was put into was basically doomed to fail if the expectation was lots of success.

                    He had actually started turning it round, picking up wins and draws. But obviously it was too little too late.

                      They got beat by a second division team in the cup at the weekend.

                      It was a poor appointment. They still have a decent squad (for the French league) and needed an experienced manager to guide them to safety this season and perhaps then take a gamble on an unproven 'big name's manager next season.

                        I feel like as a fan base, we are usually dead against this sort of appointment for any club. Its boring, regressive and lazy. Its Big Sam.

                        No one wants Big Sam. Henry is a French Footballing legend (sort of) So you can understand why they took the risk.

                          It's easy to say that he was **** because he was ****.
