    All he had to do was play the same starting 11 Amorim did. He has played a different 11 every game. Fire this fucking idiot before you lose your job too.

    Just set your differences aside and hire Conceicao. Why throw away a season and millions of dollars over this. Insane. Gyokeres is gonna go for a bargain after JP is done with him.

    If it makes you guys feel better, your point total in the CL is most likely already enough to pass to the next round

    Just thought I’d spread some positivity.

    Kind regards

    Nah. Plenty of time for JP to piss down his legs.

    I am usually not the one to press the panic button but I have to agree . Fire this idiot asap . All he had to do was keep things as is but nooooo, his ego insisted he had to make this team his . Put his stamp on it . Conceicao on a one year deal only or the Santa Clara coach is what I would do

    I'd even argue with the remaining fixtures, and with a decent manager, we could still get top 8. With JP, forget it

    Waking up to the news that this benfiquista idiot is still manager is upsetting. I am getting worried that he’s planning on getting Abel, the new Paulo Bento, when the Brazilian league is done. Ah well, the last four years were fun while they lasted.

    It's wild how many people are asking for Abel to replace JP. The guys teams play terrible, boring soccer. Been mediocre everywhere he's gone. Just got shit on by Artur Jorge, who is also terrible and who has a much worse team. I don't doubt Abel will be Sportings next manager, I just don't get it...

    Things go from bad to worse. Morita is out for 2-3 weeks with an injury. We have no Pote or Bragança through injury either.

    Wasn't that in the box? Penalty was reverted by VAR

    Are we going to continue with this fool at the helm after this? A month ago we were routing Man City, we would be in top 8 right now...

    Varandas should realize the sooner he fires JP the higher likelihood he doesn't get pushed out.

    In 4 games this team has been destroyed. We went from unbeatable to completely without ideas.

    Is JP officially the worst coach in our history? Was Leonel Pontes this bad?

    Pure greed. They think every coach will be a new Amorim

    We're needing to win and he throws on Esgaio, of course we go on to lose the game. Even Amorim who loved Esgaio wasn't playing him this season

    I genuinely had no idea how entrenched Amorim was in every aspect of the club. Culture, scouting, direction, media,etc it really seems like it was all 100% him. I've never seen such a difference in before, during, and after a manager.

    Anyways, we all know JP is out of his depth. We all know he's not getting fired.

    All this guy had to do was show up and drink coffee for the next 5 months… change nothing and laugh his ass off… instead he has driven his car off a cliff at full speed

    My prediction is he sticks around as long as we are top 3. It seems like Amorim was the one with ambition to push further and spend money. I wouldn't be surprised if we fall back into the Paulo Bento era of top 3 is fine, not spending money, play the kids.

    I’m scouting sporting today.

    so far, they appear to play like a team full of Bruno fernandes. Everything is so rushed and panicked, as if they are 1-0 down and there’s 5 minutes to go.

    Under Amorim there was build up play and patience.
