We as viewers probably won't notice it very much until half of the squad are replaced. I cannot see half of this lazy squad pressing like mad men.
Erik ten Hag - Ajax Manager
- Thread starter Panther

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Also, Sir Alex in 26 seasons only won 5 FA Cups, 4 League Cups and 2 Champions League's. That means in the remaining 15 seasons he won none of the cup tournaments. No one wins every tournament.
I know ye but just because we’re getting ten Hag and he lost a final a lot of the finals are going mad saying he’s a bottler and all this. No pleasing some people.
“When the pressures on, and it will be on every game at Manchester United let me tell ya, can this guy get it done? He’s bottled the Champions League against a dreadful Benfica team and he’s thrown away the cup final after benching the best striker in Europe at the time. I just don’t see it going well Jeff”

100%…. People lose there head when there’s no need to. I didn’t watch the game but I believe psv only won because of Ajax mistakes which makes it even more unlucky. Ten Hag will still go on to win the league this season and then come to us as a champion and hungry for more success.
This will happen
Please tell me this is a joke and Merson isn't really this thick.
Yeah forgot about him but he's the exception rather than the norm and if he continue his career again he is bound to lose in a final somewhere along the line.
But your point is valid
No joke, @sewey89 can actually look into the future!
Unoriginal or not it’s fecking hilarious…
The internet is full of loads of people making the same shitty jokes. No need to scour it and quote people ffs
I was disappointed he didn’t win the final yesterday, but I’d like him to come to us with the momentum of a league title behind him. Hopefully the Ajax boys are stung enough to go on and win it.
A manager coming from the dutch league to Man utd should be so good his team should be untouchable, ETH would ultimately prove to be not good enough, the benfica result was the first sign and yesterday game totally confirms it. Once again we have made the wrong choice.
Haaaaa haaaaa.
Haaaaa haaaaa.
It is a joke but Merson is much much thicker than that.
Let's hope he can turn our fortune around, we shouldn't solely judge him on yesterdays performance but on his overall time at Ajax, and that's how I hope we judge here when he arrives.
Good to hear, hopefully we get the official confirmation soon.
Widely reported it will probably be this week. I think it's in everyones best interest to get it announced now so everyone can move on and each can focus on their respective finishes for the season
Yeah not announcing it might be more detrimental at this point considering how it overshadows their title race.
Based on my observation from several Ajax's high lighted & some comments from Ajax supporter, here's the weakness I see on ETH. 1)Concede a lot of goals from counter-attack. 2)Quite doesn't have PlanB if PlanA doesn't work. Let's see how he can improve this matter on his learning curve when joining Man United.
Think it like us saying the opposition are playing with 12 men.Tweet

Erik ten Hag believes that Ajax has played against more than 11 players. What does he mean by that? "Sometimes there are forces and forces against it," he says. "I'm not talking about the arbitration."
We're getting an absolute nutter
I reckon they're holding the announcement til after the Liverpool game, to try and lift the mood and interupt what could be an extremely negative news cycle at the time.
Was the "- August 2022" not enough to enlighten you on the context of the post?
Klopp level excusesTweet

He's ready to be a top manager
winner mentality right thereManchester United mentality. Quite often we do play against 12 men. At least it won't be a surprise.
Roberto Di Mateo
Beats the Solskjaer ‘well shucks, better luck next week for us, thats football!’ and walks away smiling.
Unironically this! Can't be United manager without giving a good moan to the media.Manchester United mentality. Quite often we do play against 12 men. At least it won't be a surprise.
Merson already doubting Ten Hag ….he should stick to backing horses
FFS how did I miss thatWas the "- August 2022" not enough to enlighten you on the context of the post?
A manager unable to win a cup.
We will never win anything under him.
We will never win anything under him.
I mean he only got there once and fair play to him he won it. But as other poster had pointed out to me there is one bald guy who had won 9/9 finals he's in so farRoberto Di Mateo
Glad someone finally brought that up
Yeah nailed on it happens when we have took a hiding at the hands of them AGAIN
Soon see what his mettle is like, this will hopefully increase his determination to succeed at United and prove to everyone his credentials.
Bringing in ten Hag reminds me of the sort of players we would sign under Fergie.
Someone that's doing the business at a slightly lower level, ready to make the step up and become world class.

We’ve signed plenty of players of that description post-Fergie, and we also signed our fair share of superstars under him.
Yeap. No one ever heard of a Rio or Yorke or Cole or Rooney or that Keane when Fergie first signed them.
