Nah Erik’s here to stay.Never expected form like this. Hope this doesn't turn out to be a negative, if we dip form and the fans now expect the earth. Still need to remain patient and pray the new owners don't bin him.
From what I remember it wasn't so much that people didn't want EtH, it was skepticism (rightfully imo) that he would either agree to join (may have preferred replacing Pep) or that the Glazers would sanction such a move (over a "safer" option such as Pochettino).I posted a thread about how we should try and get him as manager many months before we signed him and Ole was still at the wheel. I got slaughtered specially by the Ole in lot.
So glad I was right.
Could certainly make some of our media give him respect with a win over GuardiolaI love him more and more every week and I hope he continues to improve the squad and make us champions again.
Doubt it'd be another hammering, but it's obvious that we've made a lot of progress even if we end up losing to City and Arsenal. We're aren't the finished article yet.Let’s see after the derby if we have really made significant progress after the 6-3
I love him more every game because he wins. Once he loses I want him out.
Its early days yet and there are sterner tests ahead. The big question mark is around squad depth for a few key positions like DM and CM with the depth in attack looking like its close to being resolved - young Garnacho has been a revelation, we are bringing in a stop gap striker and Sancho will come back but can Casemiro and Eriksen take us through the remainder of the season or we are going to be forced to rely more on McFred?Never expected form like this.

Top 4, Top 4, Top 4….Chelsea is going to sign Felix on loan and we are going for cheap option in Wout.
This could be the different between finishing Top 4 or not. We are really short in quality and quantity in attacking side.
My brother asked me when Ole was still in charge and we were losing left right and centre and just generally being shit what I would do if I was in charge. I said I would sign Ralf Rangnick as caretaker until the summer and sign Erik Ten Hag in the summer and make Rangnick DoF. Was crazy when it looked like we were heading exactly that way except we all know RR didnt work out..I posted a thread about how we should try and get him as manager many months before we signed him and Ole was still at the wheel. I got slaughtered specially by the Ole in lot.

You and 84% of the cafI posted a thread about how we should try and get him as manager many months before we signed him and Ole was still at the wheel. I got slaughtered specially by the Ole in lot.

It's pretty obvious why people would want top 4. It makes it easier to attain your top targets if you can offer them champions league football.Top 4, Top 4, Top 4….
It’s like an obsession with some of you. Spurs got Top 4 last season, so what? They’re still playing dreadful football, have a negative manager who will probably go back to Italy this summer and they’ve still got a squad of average players.
ETH is building for the long term, he’s changing the entire attitude around the club. I would take finishing 5th if it meant we have a defined style and actual tactics.
We qualified for the CL under LvG, Jose and Ole. It was just papering over the cracks.
And how do we know his analysis is correct?So excited to see his football develop man

Don't matter if we get twatted. City has backed Guardiola for years. Our club is about to get sold, we're short on cash for this transfer window and the squad is lacking in depth and quality players in key positions.I have a horrible feeling we're going to get twatted back to reality on Saturday. Let's be honest we've been City's whipping boys for years now. I can only hope ETH is going to change that now.
The question hopefully isn’t whether McFred can do it. It’s whether Casemiro Fred can do it or McTominay Eriksen. Or whatever combo you want.Its early days yet and there are sterner tests ahead. The big question mark is around squad depth for a few key positions like DM and CM with the depth in attack looking like its close to being resolved - young Garnacho has been a revelation, we are bringing in a stop gap striker and Sancho will come back but can Casemiro and Eriksen take us through the remainder of the season or we are going to be forced to rely more on McFred?
Midfield is where I could see our season unravelling. Guess if push comes to shove we could deploy Licha Martinez to deputize Casemiro with Shaw moving to CB? This is where having someone like Fergie in the building could be helpful, he was a master of the squad rotation game and if given a chance I am sure he would tell ETH of the need to keep his top guns fresh. I am sure, though, that ETH is smart enough to know this himself.
We’ve usually found one decent result per season against them. A win takes us within 1pt of City which seems remarkable.I have a horrible feeling we're going to get twatted back to reality on Saturday.

Yeah we've gotten results but they've felt against the run of play mostly. I can't wait until we convincingly beat them again.We’ve usually found one decent result per season against them. A win takes us within 1pt of City which seems remarkable.
My point was/is that it’s not the end of the world. Arsenal haven’t had CL football for years. Look at them now.It's pretty obvious why people would want top 4. It makes it easier to attain your top targets if you can offer them champions league football.
Nah, he isn't mentioned anywhere early on in that thread, when I created a thread about him, hardly anybody wanted him and most disagreed. I can't find the thread now can't remember the title.
Pretty sure I made a thread about Ten Hag potential before everyone else. Although I also can't find the thread now can't remember the title!!! Still it’s nice to see everyone agrees now that I was both right and first.Nah, he isn't mentioned anywhere early on in that thread, when I created a thread about him, hardly anybody wanted him and most disagreed.

Yes City in form and United playing below their current standard could be whipping however the record against them in the last 10 matches is not to shabby.I have a horrible feeling we're going to get twatted back to reality on Saturday. Let's be honest we've been City's whipping boys for years now. I can only hope ETH is going to change that now.
The ol' reliable Hagmobile.What car is he driving there?

It is a shame we couldn’t get him earlier. I’ve recently been thinking what our midfield would be like if we still had Pogba, with him playing alongside Casemiro.I posted a thread about how we should try and get him as manager many months before we signed him and Ole was still at the wheel. I got slaughtered specially by the Ole in lot.
So glad I was right.
this Felix obsession is cringe and embarrassing. Have you even read the details of the loan deal to Chelsea? Get a grip!Chelsea is going to sign Felix on loan and we are going for cheap option in Wout.
