He's no Bilal Ilyas Jhandir
Will he make a change before the result is beyond saving for once?

I do remember people on here posting that rotation was his weakness. Here we are a goal down, with our starting 11 against some random team. Not sure which part is worse...We were warned.....
Happy now then? Back to Ten Hag inIf he doesn't make subs at half-time, I'm Hag out.
Ronaldo and Fred off?Need changes at half time.
Yeah but he's too scared to sub off Ronaldo. Won't gamble on Iqbal/Mainoo for Fred either even though they can't be any worse.Ronaldo and Fred off?
While this is true, Fred is playing exactly like a young inexperienced midfielder.Any manager would be mental to bring on a young inexperienced midfielder in this game while its close
Agree with this.Any manager would be mental to bring on a young inexperienced midfielder in this game while its close
The same people would then crucify him if he did and we went on and lost.Any manager would be mental to bring on a young inexperienced midfielder in this game while its close
If only we had a midweek tournament against easier opposition where young inexperienced players could get some experience.Any manager would be mental to bring on a young inexperienced midfielder in this game while its close
Good point. I was expecting Elanga to be on at least for Sancho. ETH is too scared to make changes.Made 1 sub in 90 minutes. A coward.
I love ETH but that was the wrong sub. Take off a defender, Throw the fecking kitchen sink at them.
I don't think that would have created two better chances than the ones we had very late in the game.Should have been sending more forwards to the pitch after 70th mins at OT.
He’s not scared. He didn’t have anyone on the bench he trusts to make an impact. I wouldn’t have made changes either. Sancho was having his best game of the season so far and you want him to come off for elanga? Antony was getting a lot of time on the right but couldn’t find that final killer ball. The 2 chances at the end indicate that ten hag got it spot on. Not much he can do about the players on the pitch missing what were essentially sitters.Good point.

His use of subs has in general been quite good with them impacting games. As you have pointed out the issue is he just doesnt have a good enough squad. And there is a difference in throwing on a youngster amongst a multiple title winning squad like under a fergie and then doing so with this team.He’s not scared.

You don't think putting more attackers will help after watching how SAF used to do it? I mean we were playing against Newcastle.I don't think that would have created two better chances than the ones we had very late in the game.
Newcastle have lost 5 games since January. They’ve got the best defensive record in the league.The Newcastle from 2 years ago no longer existsYou don't think putting more attackers will help after watching how SAF used to do it? I mean we were playing against Newcastle.
No, we would've likely lost control of the midfield if we took a defender or a midfielder for another forward.You don't think putting more attackers will help after watching how SAF used to do it? I mean we were playing against Newcastle.
The midfield was controlled by two FBs in the late periods of the game. Cas was OK, but Fred was anything but controlling the midfield at that point. In fact, Ronaldo (lack of options) should still have been on the pitch, with Rashford coming on for Fred, running from deep to behind their defense to stretch it.No, we would've likely lost control of the midfield if we took a defender or a midfielder for another forward.
We created our two best chances after taking the statue up front off. You could argue he should've been off earlier but I don't think Ten Hag could've done much different in terms of subs.
