Poisoned chalice. Good luck to the next manager.
Rangnick ain't his mate.Ten Haag or Hassenutil please.
Laughing at Paul Scholes laying into Rangnick after he defended Ole for 3 years
What's there to be excited about? The same lot will be there next season stinking the place up and in the process getting new contracts. This mess is beyond what a manager can fix. This club is not about football anymore.The only bit of excitement or joy that can be generated from this season after our CL exit now is the announcement of our new manager. Whether it’s ETH, Poch or whoever else, I hope we get an announcement before the end of the season
At least PSG went out to Real Madrid and realistically they should have gone through. It was a comedy of errors that cost them. Ajax just went out to the 3rd best team in Portugal. Frankly I don't feel very comfortable with either of them atm. However, I didn't think our squad of players would respect ETH even before, now that he's gone out to Benfica he's going to be up against it immediately. At least the players would have respect for Pochettino coming in. At this stage I'm just hoping Tuchel is somehow available.But Pochettino does? Just odd attitudes
Tbf that can happen but ultimately neither Poch or Ten Hag are Pep, Klopp or Tuchel standard. We are just miles behind and have to go with someone. I'd still go with Ten Hag.
The players are shite so who cares. Gut the wasters who dont rate the new manager and start againIf it was a one off, sure. But they lost over 2 legs. That Ajax team has better players than Benfica. It's really poor of Ajax to not progress given the draw they got. Biggest issue is actually getting our players to buy into Ten Hag now. I suspect it would be a similar situation to Rangnick where many players simply don't respect him enough or trust his ability.
I say burn this squad to the ground and buy smart young players for cheap like RBL does and go from there.If it was a one off, sure. But they lost over 2 legs.

Pochettino also has Neymar, Messi, Verratti and Mbappe on his team. Ten Hag's team was stripped of all of it's best players and he has had to rebuild with players like Haller, Blind and Tadic. Not only that but by all accounts they dominated the match and lost to Darwin Nunez, who is a quality player in line for a massive transfer this summer. I'm not saying one or the other is better but there has to be some context here when you consider these thingsAt least PSG went out to Real Madrid and realistically they should have gone through.

We’re not winning the league next season. Gut the squad and build for the long termRight we'll win the league with 11 academy players

If majority of these lot are there next season, i am skipping next season. I know it wont make any difference other than restoring some of the sanity i have lost watching this group throw it away this season.
The keeper is shite too. Not one for mordern day footballLove Scholes but what is he talking about?
All this side needs is a good coach, there is a good bunch of player, Ragnick not the answer, sick of people talkign about needing 6/7 and spending £200m.
Honestly, he backed Ole for three years even though his coaching was awful, salting |Ragnick after 20 games. We had a good tactical coach in Van de Gaal, a manager past his best by a mile but still a decent manager in Mourinho.
The problem Paul isnt the management, its the players! We actually played well this evening without creating much at all.
We have a squad of squad players, that is the problem, the recruitment has been absolutely dreadful by pretty much all the managers.
Stop saying this is a talented bunch of players and isntantly contradicting.....its not as good as the top two.
We have a quality keeper, outside of that, none of the full backs have done well over any sustained period of time, Varane is the only quality centre back we have, we avent a single central midfield player performance wise who would be playing for any top side, we laud Fernandes who has given the ball away consistently for a year now and compare him to Cantona, from a formidable attack our most consistent player is one just stepped out of the youth side and we are relying on two ageing strikers.
Yes there are some talented players on paper but ho wmany of them are performing anything other than sporadically....in a lot of cases, it is the individuals and there characters.
We need exactly what you are talkign against Paul. A manager that comes in with balls and clears our 10-15 players who are all on ridiculous money they are simply not earning, many of which want to go....good, get that shirt off your back, you are not worthy of it.
There are seven positions in our first eleven that need upgrading, so of coruse we need 6/7 signings, but we need to get the right players with ability, hunger and the right attitude.
This thread is about the next manager? Who? Ten Hag is flavour of the month and what has he actually shown? Pochetinno I like but is he THE man to take us forward, Im not so sure. Who else is there, older managers who would be the wrong options. Yet again its all about timing........we seriously screwed up yet again, not replacing Ole with Nagelsmann two years ago...he was the answer, jsut as Klopp was when Fergie retired.
Beign negative, I dont see the right man available this summer, some good managers like COnte dont fit for me, good coaches like Potter who I dont feel are ready for such a big challenge....But whoeever comes in, if they keep some of these current players they shouldnt and dont sign the right ones....they havent got a hope truly
Ajax lost the tie thanks to 2 GK mistakes. Pasaveer couldn't parry the equalizer in the first leg and Onana completely made a mockery of today's goal.
And who are these Ajax players that are better than Verthogen, Otamendi, Wiegl, Taarabt and Nunez?
You can't replace that many players in a single season. People acting like the players' opinion is irrelevant yet the majority of them will abviously still be starting for us next season. Anyone who thinks we're getting more than 5 1st team players (we won't even get that many) is deluded.
All of them are better because of the coaching they received from ETH. Hence my question. Haller, Blind and Tadic were all deemed PL flops when they joined Ajax.Replied above you with a list of players. Nunez is excellent so he's an exception but the rest are not as good as Ajax's players.
EDIT: Actually, you can add Edson Alvarez to that list too. Better than current Otamendi or Vertonghen who are way past their best.
The keeper is shite too. Not one for mordern day football
God himself would stay clear of this club.God help whoever takes on this job.
I feel that De Gea could work as no.1 going forward IF we don't go with the usual Maguire - Mcfred core in front of him - I feel that exacerbates his weaknesses and vice versa. So its either you replace the keeper with someone with better positioning and distribution, or you replace our central core so they wouldn't be as handicapped by a keeper who likes to stay glued to his line.I dont agree personally but I am a stick in the mud. Think its good how much better technically players in positions are and espcially in England. But jsut personal opinion, I think there is an obsession with wing backs going forard, false 9s, pivots, roles liek a 6 and an 8.
A lot of it is nothing new, its just an adaption or rename/rebrand of football before.
yes, DeGea isnt brilliant with his feet, but he isnt awful either, may not be progressive but he isnt regressive and he has kept us in many games with his saves, which is th emost important thing for me. Obviousloy he isnt goign or being replaced, but who would you even replace him with that makes a huge difference that way and is still quality? Oblak for example is often lauded and despite this season, quite rightly, but he isnt really a modern keeper with his feet either. All for Henderson going and replacing him with an exciting young keeper like Vandervrodt for example to challenge DeGea and maybe in the wau you want, but replace him and he is shite....come on now?
After ten hag failed to beat the underdog in benefica and Ralf ragnick doing incredibly poorly, the smartest decision has to be Pochettino. If anyone analyzed his performance against real Madrid, his team dominated them when you put both tie together collectively. His team played with a lot of swagger only for their defenders to gift real Madrid the goals. He did this with attackers who don't defender well off the ball and two who barely contribute in terms of output.

Again, Ajax dominated that game by some margin, they went out to a single goal against the run of play.After ten hag failed to beat the underdog in benefica and Ralf ragnick doing incredibly poorly, the smartest decision has to be Pochettino.

I just want to get this over with so we can finally get over our bizarre obsession with him, inevitably sack him after 2-3 years once we predictably realise he's not all that (cue shocked pikachu face), and THEN hopefully start a proper rebuild at 5th time of trying.Pochettino is going to get the job,some people might struggle with it but I reckon they have 3 months to make peace with it

Didn't he beat underdog sides like Ajax, Dortmund, etc. On the way to the final? Along with world class sides like Madrid and City.Again, Ajax dominated that game by some margin, they went out to a single goal against the run of play.
Poch has also failed to beat the underdog - and the fact he lost 3-1 in the return leg with the players he has is more embarrassing and doesn't exactly spell a 'dominant' performance, but he's a bottle merchant so nothing new for him.
