Your Tuchel point is an exact demonstration of what I meant

Knudsen was not an unrealistic target (particularly if we'd been prepared to wait).

The only link between Knudsen and Tuchel is that you think they'd both have been better.

Bringing it up in that fashion is pure straw man debating.

No one was suggesting Tuchel, so don't try and use your own made up points to ridicule a quite reasonable opinion.

The reasonable opinion being that Smith didn't seem to fit the mould we were planning to when we got him. And hasn't since. And that it might have made sense to go for a Farke-esque manager then, and now. (not Farke).

But yknow, keep enjoying starting arguments in empty rooms etc.
