Because it wasnt a manager issue. It was an issue with those dealing with his contract, leaving it so late

- Thread starter #07

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
I'm not going to give them a click but I'm guessing it's a disguised parting shot at Woodward?
Lindelof with his ‘now is not the right time to speak’ and Herrera’s tough times ahead quotes for today, there’s some serious shit going on in that dressing room.
It is about money.
Exactly.
Yeah some pretty childish comments all honestly.
Not sounding great is it, theres just nothing good coming out about us at the moment.
He’s all talk now after admitting he’s leaving, where was the talk the last 6 months ?
It’s up to Ole to sort out the dressing room if it’s toxic which it probably is then , he needs to clear the problems out.
I’m sure he’s reading this
What?
Instagram post,I think.
People getting their undies in a wad over a player telling the truth 
Sorry I couldn't help it
Yes, it is about money. But I can understand Ander at this stage of his career switching clubs because this is possibly the last big contract for him. It will make a big difference for his family’s financial future.
The club’s wage structure got out of whack with Alexis’ contract and any good player we have will want a much higher wage. We should have fought harder to keep Ander, instead of renewing Ashley, Jones, and offering Rashford a mega-contract.
All of these empty words.
This.
Oh, interesting bits there, subtle hints about the dressing room i.e. the players, affirming what we've been suspicious about.
Fair enough opinions.
And he's not exactly not giving the responsibility of failure to the two managers.
Basically he said both players and managers contributed to this Season of Shitness, not sure how what percentage with Mou but with Ole, it's more blame on the players.
Some parts about Ole being sincere and all players playing for him are total BS though.
Like always he's also being diplomatic as usual, but also say what he want to say without making it controversial (by not using direct strong clear words).Herrera said:

C’est des conneries!
The arrogance of our fans sometimes haha. Maybe Ander is leaving because PSG are a better prospect right now and they obviously value him.
How dare anyone want to leave us, yet we demand every good player from clubs in worse off positions than us. Was Ander a money grabber when he left his boyhood club for us in 2014?
We can’t be bitter. I’d love to know how long ago we offered him a deal. He should have been secured ages ago.

He should have gone full Zlatan and just added "because they are losing Ander Herrera" on the end.
Vérité est conneries? Absurdité.
He wasn't secured ages ago probably because the manager in charge didn't value him much. Its just a guess, but the man was a rotational player under both LVG and Mourinho for long stretches, he never had their full trust.
Naa, the Caf is angry that he endorsed the manager which is currently againt the popular opinion here. If he'd instead said "ole is shit" caf would have lapped it up as Herrera talking his mind and wished him well.
Oui, ça l'est, venat de lui. Il est un bavard
Talkative... or you’ve already got your mind made up about Ole and him.
I was gutted to see him go because he was decent as a player and was adored by our fans as a whole and was worshipped by the match going fans. He chose to leave for whatever reasons (money apparanetly) so adios.
It will be interesting to see how he manages to convince psg fans he is honoured to play for them and how much he respects their fans.
I think he will end up a bench warmer and will experience very little interaction from the PSG fans but living in Paris and earning 200k a week will compensate the above.

Really the reason why I'm salty about his departure is the fact that we shipped him on before we needed to get rid of the real deadwood in our team. (e.g. Young, Jones, Rojo). Suppose we can't really keep someone who doesn't want to be here any more, though.
In essence he's not wrong about the state of our team.

The unnecessary bitterness is so strong in here.
There's any numbers of reasons. He may just want to try playing at multiple places before his career is up. As well as pick up a medal or two, however plastic. I certainly wouldn't begrudge it and would potentially feel the same in his shoes.
To be fair that's partially because he still doesn't speak English despite being at the club for a decade.
Indeed.
Maybe he (and his family) wanted to live in Paris during his career?
Maybe he has players that he's very good friends with at PSG?
Maybe he wants to win league titles?
Maybe he wants to be closer (culturally and/or geographically) to his Spanish roots?
Then he came back into the side and was poor vs Wolves and Watford
I don't even know why he's talking, he's got the dream move he wanted $$. The man has a silver tongue but a lot of it is lip service IMO.
I don’t know why people are just off handedly rejecting what he’s saying.
He’s got no reason whatsoever to hold back about Ole, but he’s taking up for him. That carries more weight with me than someone saying it whose still at the club.
Cheers Ander.
What most of us already thought.
All the best.

so much salt.
can't fault Ander, he was a solid player at United who somewhat understood the club and actually seemed to care (unlike some others). But I get why he's leaving for PSG - it's kind of a no-brainer unless you're a real die-hard United fan. Good money, great team, nice city ... hard to turn that down, especially if you feel Woodward left it too late.
good luck to him. Seeing him in that PSG shirt will hurt though.

He's correct that patience is important. But so is quality and progress.
Never liked him anyway.
Ole out!
Am I doing this right?
