But he is a long way behind the top 3. Got lucky in the final.
But like you I’m fascinated to see how those 3 get on next season. Games against each other will be vital.
Be interesting to see how they all get on.

3 different managers.

3 different tactical setups.

2 who over the season got far more points and clearly better teams but both with terrible top level records and similar criticisms aimed at them.

1 limited managerial experience overall who finished a way behind the other 2 but who does have a successful top league season to his name and possibly bit more of a transferable style.

Is the excuse young squad, value, injuries or is Le Bris simply gouda but not grate.

When you look at what he did with: Rutter, James, Firpo, it has to be Farke. All 3 of those players could easily have been sidelined/loaned out White Elephants under another manager. (Even under a so called Elite Manager).

Farke transformed Rutter from an uncoordinated misfit (essentially Rutter was the bendy inflatable seen in front of Tyre Shops) into a sensational free roaming playmaker.

I have no idea if Farke will survive in the Premiership.

Season finished and so were does Le Bris rank now after achieving promotion through the play offs ?

Oh and should Sunderland sack him and look to get an experienced PL manager in :)

Probably working out how it should have been given to a manager with less financial support, and a team composed of players from lower leagues and ravaged by injures, and that the majority of their games were played under atrocious weather conditions, and the refereeing was utterly biased, and the price of a half time hot dog was so extortionate, that it put the fans in a bad mood so that they didn't support the team properly.
